Ocekivanja
Maja Milinkovic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jednom smo gradili sreću,
svaki dan
smijali se, plakali, voljeli
jednom smo gradili sreću.
Jednom smo lebdjeli lako
mladi, sneni, poneseni
Ref.
Onda su došla očekivanja
onda su došla planirana zbivanja
onda su došle one stvari
od kojih čovjek brzo stari
Bacili smo osmijehe
kome oni trebaju?
Kupili smo podsmijehe
koji imaju očekivanja.
Jednom smo plovili duboko
bez straha do poslijednjeg daha
jednom smo ljubili žestoko.
Da l' ćemo ikada više
stajati naspram kiše
smijat' se životu u lice?
Jer su došla očekivanja
jer su došla planirana zbivanja
jer su došle one stvari
od kojih čovjek brzo stari
Bacili smo osmijehe
kome oni trebaju?
kupili smo podsmijehe
koji imaju očekivanja.
The song "Očekivanja" by Maja Milinkovic explores the theme of expectations and how they can affect our lives. The lyrics narrate how the singer and their loved ones once built their happiness together, sharing joys, tears, and love. They sailed freely and kissed fiercely, living life without fear. However, something changed, and suddenly expectations became a part of their lives. Planning, striving, and wanting defined every decision they made, and the weight of these expectations pitted them against each other. The smiles they once shared became useless, and they acquired fake ones that met the expectations of those around them. The rain became a symbol of adversity, and laughter in the face of life felt like a fleeting memory.
The song's message is a poignant reminder that expectations can be a double-edged sword. They can motivate us to achieve great things, but they can also rob us of our sense of joy and define our happiness based on external validation. The lyrics invite us to reflect on our own lives and ask ourselves whether the expectations we carry are really our own and whether they align with our values and purpose.

Jednom smo gradili sreću,
Once, we built happiness,
svaki dan
Every day
smijali se, plakali, voljeli
We laughed, we cried, we loved
jednom smo gradili sreću.
Once, we built happiness.
Jednom smo lebdjeli lako
Once, we floated lightly
mladi, sneni, poneseni
Young, dreamy, carried away
jednom je bilo tako.
Once, it was like that.

Chorus:
Onda su došla očekivanja
Then came expectations
onda su došla planirana zbivanja
Then came planned events
onda su došle one stvari
Then came those things
od kojih čovjek brzo stari
From which a person quickly ages
Bacili smo osmijehe
We threw away our smiles
kome oni trebaju?
Who needs them?
Kupili smo podsmijehe
We bought fake laughs
koji imaju očekivanja.
Which have expectations.
Jednom smo plovili duboko
Once, we sailed deeply
bez straha do poslijednjeg daha
Without fear until the last breath
jednom smo ljubili žestoko.
Once, we kissed passionately.
Da l' ćemo ikada više
Will we ever again
stajati naspram kiše
stand facing the rain
smijat' se životu u lice?
laugh in life's face?
Jer su došla očekivanja
Because expectations came
jer su došla planirana zbivanja
Because planned events came
jer su došle one stvari
Because those things came
od kojih čovjek brzo stari
From which a person quickly ages
Bacili smo osmijehe
We threw away our smiles
kome oni trebaju?
Who needs them?
kupili smo podsmijehe
We bought fake laughs
koji imaju očekivanja.
Which have expectations.
