Kapetane Moj - Josipa Lisac

Vec dugo me pustas gledat' niz pucinu

I proklinjat' srecu koju more nosi

Darujuc' mu puste i besane noci

Gdje mi tuga plete svud srebro po kosi

Kapetane moj…

Znam, tebi je more prva ljubav bila

A ja sam tek bljesak znacila u mraku

Da bih kad se magla ispred broda digla

Ostala ko pjena na njegovu tragu

Kapetane moj…

I starim tako sama od broda do broda

U zelji da te zagrlim, izljubim

Iako dobro znadem da svakim te danom

Sa brazdom broda nepovratno gubim…

Kapetane moj…

Al' kad se bez zelja doma k meni vratis

Toj posljednjoj luci, sto te mirno ceka

Ni spaziti neces da uz tebe nije

Ona mlada zena, vec starica neka…

Kapetane moj…

You've been watching me down the open sea for a long time

And curse the happiness that the sea brings

Giving him empty and sleepless nights

Where sorrow weaves silver all over my hair

My captain…

I know, the sea was your first love

And I only meant a flash in the dark

That when the fog in front of the ship rose

She remained like foam on his trail

My captain…

And I grow so old alone from ship to ship

Wanting to hug you, kiss you

Although I know very well that every day

With the furrow of the ship I lose irretrievably…

My captain…

But when you come home to me without a wish

That last port, which awaits you peacefully

You won't even notice he's not with you

That young woman, but an old woman…

My captain…
