U mome kraju, brodovi su ljudi
Oni plaču, smiju se i vole
U mome kraju, brodovi su svečanost
I najdraže igračke nestašnih dječaka
Brodovi
Bez vas, tužne su luke sve
Bez vas, puste su rive te
Bez vas, galebi mru
Dok Mjesec kosi noć
Na pramcu stiha svog
Ja palim sreće žar
Za puteve vaše
Brodovi
Na vas čekaju ljubavi
Na vas čekaju prozori
Bez vas, gitare mru
Dok zora pali dan
Na jarbol stiha svog
Ja dižem pjesmu tu
Za povratke vaše
Dok zora pali dan
Na jarbol stiha svog
Ja dižem pjesmu tu
Za povratke vaše
O, igračke drage
In my neighbourhood, ships are people
They cry, smile and love
In my neighbourhood, ships are celebrities
And the dearest toys of menacing boys
Ships
Without you, all ports are sad
Without you, rivieras are deserted
Without you, seagulls die
While the moon cuts the night
On the stem of your verse
I ignite the fire of luck
For your journeys
Ships
Loves await you
Windows await you
Without you, guitars die
While dawn ignites the day
On the mast of your verse
I raise this song
For your return
While dawn ignites the day
On the mast of your verse
I raise this song
For your return
Oh, the dear toys
