My love

Iz mora san pruži tebi ruku,

From out of the sea I reached out my hand to you

Mokar naspram vitru, slidi san ti trag,

Wet in the wind, I followed your trace

di si se skrila, jubavi.

Iz stine san ubra tebi cviće,

I picked a flower from a rock for you

oku tvome da ga donesem.

Mokar naspram vitru, slidi san ti trag,

Dal te bole ove pisme riči,
