Dalmatino "Croatia" lyrics

Translation to:enhr

Croatia

Ovi komad stine šta iz mora viri,di se bura s jugom svadi pa se miri.To su stare kuće od tri brata,Duje, Vlaha i Donata,koje tamo stoje vjekovima.

Di na listu loze spava žensko dite,brižno pazi na nju stari Velebite.Njeno plavo more krv je plava,našeg kralja Tomislava,naših knezova i vitezova.Njeno plavo more krv je plava,našeg kralja Tomislava,naših knezova i vitezova.

Da Bog da više ne čula oružja zvuk,al' znaj čovik je čoviku vuk.Da je Bog ima kćer ka šta je imam ja,da bi joj ime Croatia.

Ako kreneš gori samo par koraka,s Gornjeg Grada čut ćeš zvona svetog Marka.Nek' nam blagoslovi crvenicu,kamen more i ravnicu..

S dlana pusti bilu golubicu.Da na svaku našu ljutu ranu,stavi maslinovu granu,znamen vječne ljubavi i mira.

Da Bog da više ne čula oružja zvuk,al' znaj čovik je čoviku vuk.Da je Bog ima kćer ka šta je imam ja,da bi joj ime Croatia.Da je Bog ima kćer ka šta je imam ja,da bi joj ime Croatia,da bi joj ime Croatia.

Croatia

This piece of a land what protrudes from the sea(1)where storm(2) fights with the wind from the south(3) and then they get together againThat are actually old houses of three brothers namedDuje, Vlaho and Donat(4)which are there for ages

On the leaf of a wine sleeps female child(5)Take care of her, you old mountain VelebitHer blue sea is noble bloodOf our king TomislavOf our princes and knightsHer blue sea is noble bloodOf our king TomislavOf our princes and knights

God grant that she doesn't hear sound of weapons never again(6)But you know, man is a wolf to another manIf God had a daughter like I have,He'd call her Croatia

If you take a few steps upFrom Gornji Grad(Upper Town) you'll hear the bells of St. Mark(7)May God bless red soil(8),stone(8), sea and plain(8)

May God let a white dove from his handto put olive brunchOn our every painful wound,That's symbol of eternal love and peace (9)

God grant that she doesn't hear sound of weapons never againBut you know, man is a wolf to another manIf God had a daughter like I have,He'd call her CroatiaIf God had a daughter like I have,He'd call her CroatiaHe'd call her Croatia
