Translation of the song Gitara dalmatina artist Maja Blagdan

Croatian (Chakavian dialect)

Gitara dalmatina

English translation

Dalmatian Guitar

Još san mater

I still held

Držala pod ruku

My mother's hand

Kad san te upoznala

When I met you

Bija si momak, najlipši u kraju

You were a young man, the most beautiful one around

Šta san ga vidila

As much as I saw

Ti si doša iz velikog svita

You came from the big world

A ja tek naresla

And I just grew up

Prvi put san tada

That was the first time

Dočekala zoru

I stayed awake till dawn

Jer san se zaljubila

Because I fell in love

Gitara dalmatina, svirala cilu noć

Dalmatian guitar played all night long

A mjesec sa skalina

And the Moon on the stairs

čekao kad ću doć

Waited for my arrival

Gitara dalmatina, dušu mi uzela

Dalmatian guitar took my soul

Kad me taknu tvoje oči

When your eyes touch me

Samo mi srce ludo skoči

My heart just jumps up like crazy

Tada san tvoja sva

Then whole of me is yours

Bila san dite

I was child

A bila san cura

And I was a girl

Samo san te gledala

I just looked at you

A ti si bija momak na svom mistu

And you were a decent guy

Samo takav ko iz sna

Something special, dreamlike

Gitara dalmatina, svirala cilu noć

Dalmatian guitar played all night long

A mjesec sa skalina

And the Moon on the stairs

čekao kad ću doć

Waited for my arrival

Gitara dalmatina, dušu mi uzela

Dalmatian guitar took my soul

Kad me taknu tvoje oči

When your eyes touch me

Samo mi srce ludo skoči

My heart just jumps up like crazy

Tada san tvoja sva

Then whole of me is yours

Samo mi srce ludo skoči

My heart just jumps up like crazy

Tada san tvoja sva

Then whole of me is yours

Gitara dalmatina
