This one probably is a part of the Wrong Star series, but I am not 100% sure. Despite the references that might look passionate and sexual, there's nothing rated above G in this p..m. It deals with totally different types of feelings.

Jahao je na crnom konju

Taj put kad smo se sreli,
jahao je na crnom konju,
onda ga je odsedlao
i došao do moje vatre.

Te noći sam prespavala
hiljade godina u jedan dan,
nijedan plamen nije leteo toliko visoko.

Nije ga ugasio,
samo je otišao,
za sobom ostavio konjski leš.

Nikad ne reče
što ubi sirotu životinju
i sad ga ne mogu izbaciti iz glave.

He rode a dark horse

That one time we met
He rode a black horse.
He left it unsaddled
And came to my fire.

That night I slept away
Thousands of years into a day.
No flame ever got any higher.

He didn't put it out,
He just walked away,
Horse corpse behind.

He never said why
He killed the poor animal
And I can't get him off my mind.
