Lyrics and translation Vlado Kreslin - Preko Mure, Preko Drave (Live)

Preko Mure, Preko Drave (Live)

Lahko bi bila idealen par
Z diplomami in otroki.
Tudi to ima svoj čar,
Komaj zdaj vem,
S krediti in obroki.

Zmeraj si bila večja kot vse,
Kar nama je življenje dalo
Kakšen dan se mi zdi,
Da dojenček sem,
Ki ga še vedno štorklja nosi.

Preko Mure, preko Drave,
Prek Save vse do morja.
Morda še prek oceana,
Od zibelke do neba.

Lahko bi bila idealen par
Starčkov na klopi v parku
In Jumpin' Jack Flash,
Ki si mi ga dala v dar,
še zdaj preskakuje
V taktu.

Zadnji avgust, poletje je šlo
Siva te naredi še lepšo,
Dosti mene je ti
Dosti tebe sem jaz,
Dosti mene še zdaj leti.

Preko Mure, preko Drave,
Prek Save vse do morja,
Morda še prek oceana
Od zibelke do neba.

Across the Mura, Across the Drava (Live)

We could have been the perfect pair,
With diplomas and children.
That, too, has its own charm,
I barely know now,
With loans and installments.

You were always too big
For everything life gave us
Some days it seems to me
That I'm an infant,
Still carried by a stork.

Across the Mura, across the Drava,
Across the Sava to the sea.
Perhaps even across the ocean,
From the cradle to the sky.

We could have been the perfect pair,
Old souls on a park bench,
And "Jumpin' Jack Flash",
Which you gave me as a gift,
Still skips
To the rhythm.

Late August, summer is gone
Gray makes you even more beautiful,
I've had enough of me,
Enough of you, I am,
Enough of me still flies.

Across the Mura, across the Drava,
Across the Sava to the sea,
Perhaps even across the ocean,
From the cradle to the sky.
