Bosko And Admira Testo

Testo Bosko And Admira

Sweethearts since high school
He was a Serb
She was a Muslim
It didn't matter to them
In 1992
Civil war tore
Apart a nation
Igniting ethnic hatred

In the spring of 93
They decided to
Flee the violence
The monsters and tyrants
A cease fire was arranged
For safe passage
Through Sniper Alley
To Grbavica

Crossing Vrbanja bridge
Close to the end
Hope was so strong
Then it all went horribly wrong
Shots rang out, he fell face down
He was killed
Instantly, then she
Was hit and screamed

With all her strength and all her might
Mortally wounded she crawled
Over to him and
Wrapped her arm around
In fifteen minutes at most, she
Cuddled him, then all was still
And the sun set upon
Romeo and Juliet

Bosko and Admira
We're killed on a bridge
By the bullets of sniper
On the banks of the river
Forbidden love and
Blood run together
Ah, ah...

Eight days their bodies lay  
In no-man's land
Unrecovered, in the
Arms of each other
Now buried side by side
'Neath a heart-shaped stone
Near the café, where they
Courted, laughed and cried

Bosko and Admira
We're killed on a bridge
By the bullets of sniper
On the banks of the river
Forbidden love and
Blood run together
Forbidden love and
Blood run together
Ah, I hear the children play
Ah, Sarajevo serenade
Ah...

Bosko and Admira
Forbidden love and
Blood run together
Bosko and Admira
Forbidden love and
Blood run together...
