Paroles et traduction FRANJO BARIĆ - I Ti Sine Takav Budi

I Ti Sine Takav Budi

Svaki djelić svoje duše
Dao sam podravskoj grudi
Sve svoje pjesme i snove
I ti sine takav budi
Stavi svijeću neka gori
Na obalu naše Drave
Tu sam nekad dočekao
S tvojom majkom zore plave

Ref: Zapjevaj glasno da te čuju
Nek Dravom pjesma leti
Kad mene ne bude više
Tad me se sine sjeti

I ti čekaj svoje zore
Svaka nek ti nosi sreću
Mene starost pritisla je
Ja ih više čekat neću
Stavi svijeću kao znamen
Na obalu naše Drave
Tu sam nekad dočekao
S tvojom majkom zore plave

Be As You Are

Every bit of my soul
I gave to the Podravina
All my songs and dreams
Be as you are, my son
Light a candle to burn
On the bank of our Drava
It's where I once awaited
With your mother, the dawn's blue

Ref: Sing out loud for them to hear
Let the song fly along the Drava
When I'm no longer with you
Then remember me, my son

And you too, await your dawn
May each one bring you happiness
Old age has come to me
I won't be waiting for them anymore
Light a candle as a symbol
On the bank of our Drava
It's where I once awaited
With your mother, the dawn's blue
