Lyrics and translation Indexi - Modra Rijeka

Modra Rijeka

Nitko ne zna gdje je ona
Malo znamo al je znano
Iza gore iza dola
Iza sedam iza osam
I još dalje i još gore
Preko gorkih preko mornih
Preko gloga preko drače
Preko žege preko stege
Preko slutnje preko sumnje
Iza devet iza deset
I još dublje i još jače
Iza šutnje iza tmače
Gdje pijetlovi ne pjevaju
Gdje se ne zna za glas roga
I još huđe i još luđe
Iza uma iza boga
Ima jedna modra rijeka
Široka je duboka je
Sto godina široka je
Tisuć′ ljeta duboka jest
O duljini i ne sanjaj
Tma i tmuša neprebolna
Ima jedna modra rijeka
Ima jedna modra rijeka
Ima jedna modra rijeka
Valja nama preko rijeke

Blue River

No one knows where it is
We know a little but it is known
Behind the hill behind the valley
Behind seven behind eight
And even further and even higher
Over the bitter over the sad
Over the hawthorn over the sloe
Over the heat over the path
Over the hunch over the doubt
Behind nine behind ten
And even deeper and even stronger
Behind the silence behind the darkness
Where roosters do not crow
Where the sound of the horn is unknown
And even worse and even crazier
Beyond reason beyond god
There is a blue river
It is wide it is deep
A hundred years wide
A thousand summers deep
Do not even dream of its length
Darkness and gloom insurmountable
There is a blue river
There is a blue river
There is a blue river
We must cross the river
