Translation of the song Svit ne mora znat artist Doris Dragović

Croatian (Chakavian dialect)

Svit ne mora znat

English translation

The world doesn't have to know

Nema me ni za vidit', ni za čut'

I'm nowhere to be seen or heard

jer nisan živa kad ti nisi tu

For I don't live while you're not here

samo se dobro pravin ja

I just pretend well

a sve se raspada

While all comes crumbling down

Ne mogu pogled s tebe skinut' ja

I can't get my eyes off you

nekad se dobro lako na zlo da

Sometimes good surrenders to bad easily

lako je naći drugoga

It's easy to find someone else

al' teško takvoga, pravoga

but hard to find one like that, the right one

---Refren--- (2x)

---Refrain--- (2x)

Svit ne more znat'

The world can't know

da 'oću umrit', šta ideš sad

That I want to die because you're leaving

a tako si lip, ka' Gospin lik

And you're so beautiful, as the Lady's face

al' za mene slip

But blind for me

ja gubin rat za ne zaplakat'

I'm losing a war to keeping my tears

Nema me ni za vidit', ni za čut'

I'm nowhere to be seen or heard

jer nisan živa kad ti nisi tu

For I don't live while you're not here

samo se dobro pravin ja

I just pretend well

a sve se raspada

While all comes crumbling down

---Refren--- (2x)

---Refrain--- (2x)

Nema me ni za vidit', ni za čut'

I'm nowhere to be seen or heard

jer nisan živa kad ti nisi tu...

For I don't live while you're not here
