Translation of the song Dao bi se kladit artist Oliver Dragojević

Croatian (Chakavian dialect)

Dao bi se kladit

English translation

I'd bet on it

Dao bi se kladit

I'd bet on it

Zakleti u sve

Swear on everything

Zauvik zamučat

For ever hold my tongue

Prid svitom branit te

Stand up for you against the world

Rič mi neće kriva

Not a bad word about you

priko usta prić,

will ever cross my lips

Tamo di si bila

There where you were

Di ljubija san te

where I kissed you

Dao bi ti srce

I d give you my heart

Dušu već si uzela

for my soul you've already taken

Dao bi još više

I d give you more

Nego što san ikad da

than I've ever given before

Da bar nisam čuja

If I only hadn't heard

Kad si nestala

when you dissapeared

Da bar nisam vidi

If I only hadn't seen

Kad ruku ti je da

when he gave you his hand

Bolje od ovog

Better than this

Nisan niti moga niti zna

I couldn't do and didn't know

I čime bi te dalje pratija

So with what should I have followed you

Ti putuj s mirom

Travel peacefully

Nemir bit će moja posteja

Restlessness will be my bed

Da san ti ikad reka da si puno više

If I had only ever told you that you deserved

od mene zavridila

much more than me.

Dao bi ti srce

I d give you my heart

Dušu već si uzela

for my soul you've already taken

Dao bi još više

I d give you more

Nego što san ikad da

than I've ever given before

Da bar nisam čuja

If I only hadn't heard

Kad si nestala

when you dissapeared

Da bar nisam vidi

If I only hadn't seen

Kad ruku ti je da

when he gave you his hand

Bolje od ovog

Better than this

Nisan niti moga niti zna

I couldn't do and didn't know

I čime bi te dalje pratija

So with what should I have followed you

Ti putuj s mirom
