Croatia [English translation]

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 again

That are actually old houses of three brothers named

Duje, 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 Velebit

Her blue sea is noble blood

Of our king Tomislav

Of our princes and knights

Her blue sea is noble blood

Of our king Tomislav

Of 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 man

If God had a daughter like I have,

He'd call her Croatia

If you take a few steps up

From 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 hand

to put olive brunch

On our every painful wound,

That's symbol of eternal love and peace (9)

God grant that she doesn't hear sound of weapons never again

But you know, man is a wolf to another man

If God had a daughter like I have,

He'd call her Croatia

If God had a daughter like I have,

He'd call her Croatia

He'd call her Croatia
