Croatia

Musically Declined…..

May 8th, 2006 | By: Soze | 32 Comments »

A new ‘playah’ (sing it like you just don’t cayah) has emerged with his contribution in the cut throat business of supplying our NT with an official song. ‘Nered’, which means Chaos in Croatian, is a rapper from Zagreb and has put forth his little ditty for us to adopt as ‘the one’. As an added ‘bonus’, the official hooligans of Dinamo Zagreb had imput to the songs lyrics which is entitled ‘Srce Varteno’ (Fiery Heart).

At first I thought this was a joke, but after speaking to a friend in Zagreb I was assured this was for real. I have included some pictures of the possy for your viewing pleasure.

You can hear a clip of the song here. I know you’re gonna recognize the melody, but lets see if you can name it.

Beautiful Are You (Croatia)

When I remember, tears start
The fragrance of memories of
Every step of my birthplace
and of our customs.

I recognize your beauty
that stirs my love for you
When I’m with you
heart beats stronger and grows.

Oj, Zagoro, beautiful are you
Slavonija, golden are you
Herceg Bosna, proud heart
Dalmatia, my sea
one soul for us
Greetings Lika, Velebit dear

Beatiful are you

When the Neretva (river) turns to the sea
You then remember me.
My song be the theme
for those without.

Come on Istra and Zagorje
Let us raise all three colors
Embrace together
so all can see we are here.

Oj, Zagoro, beautiful are you
Slavonija, golden are you
Herceg Bosna, proud heart
Dalmatia, my sea
one soul for us
Greetings Lika, Velebit dear

Beautiful are you.

Tomislave, Hope that translation did it justice. Pretty much blows Nered the poser out of the water. Very much agree with a compilation video Soze.

Come on guys…..I know Thompson is like a god for you Croats. But theres no way that your Football Federation would let the biggest Fascist singer represent your country in song. Its like us choosing Baja Mali Knindza and letting him sing “Ne Volim te Alija”

Serbia can sing whatever they want!

If Thompson is such a ‘BIG FASCIIST’
Why than did the Aust gove have no prob with Thomposons two huge gigs in Syd and melb last year.

Total Audiance over 20 000
Here are some pics to enjoy

Kapcro,
Thank for the translation, it is a touch rough but it will do.:-)
For example
Mojoj pjesmi budi tema
Za sve one kojih nema…. in context the line is about honoring those who gave Croatia their lives in her defense. So it should be more like…
The song I sing let it be the theme
For all those we have lost.

Me,im just being pickie.
Top effort.

‘melody does not have that ‘punch’ needed for 50,000 to sing in unison at a game.’

Soze, I disagree, it is long but im sure everyone in croatia does no the lyrics and personally I believe it would sound AWESOME!!!

My apologies I meant to type “for those we are without”. I concur and accept the revision.

KapCro,

The only reason why I didnt do the translation myself was bacause I was going to bed.

Im thankful for your effort in the job well done.

Ok guys I’m from Croatia and I’d really like to write few things .
First Lijepa li si is patriotic song and fans really sing it on matches and second if Thompson is fascist why Serbs listen to his songs?
I’m from eastern Croatia and I know a lot of Serbs that like.
And since when is a crime to write a song about how beautiful your country is?

“Come on guys…..I know Thompson is like a god for you Croats.”
This isn’t true. I live in Zagreb and I know a lot of people that hate him, but I don’t know anyone that likes him.

matej you are a fool, who seems extremely uneducated. Don’t speak like such a budala. Croatians in Australia were going for Croatia. Wanka

matej, i’m Croatian and i live in Australia, Melbourne. You are one dumb little kid. 90% of Croats here were going for Croatia, 5% simply didnt give a shit and the other 5% Croats born in Aus went for either both teams or just Aus. So dont talk shit…

To all of you who like “Lijepa li si”, I hope you have not missed the lyric “Dolazak Hrvata” from his new album.
The first time I heard “Dolazak Hrvats” I got tears in my eye…

In my opinion, the refrain from ‘Srce Varteno’ is perfect for a crowd of 50,000 because u can feel the pride and honor of thousands singing in the refrain. But, i’m not sure 50,000 would go over well with rapping the verses. Anyway, can anybody translate lyrics for ‘Srce Varteno’? i just wanna see the lyrics to compare to ‘lijepa li si. Thanks a lot.
PROUD TO BE CROAT
