Primorski Napjevi Lyrics - Singles - Cyrilika Slavic Chamber Choir

Vozila se šajka, mala barka, 

Puna barka mladih devojaka 

Barka im je od suvoga zlata 

Jadra su im srebrom posrebrena 

A kapitan Anica djevojka 

Zibala Jane Pavla detića 

Zibala ga je celih devet ljet 

Deseto ljeto mito pitala 

Oj Jelena vodo ti ledena 

Vrbniče nad morem 

visoka planino 

Trajna, nina, ninena, visoka planino 

U tebi se goje po izbor djevojke 

Trajna nina ninena po izbor devoke 

Majka Maru preko mora zvala 

Jesil Mare te rube oprala? 

Nisam, majko, tek što sam počela 

Šta si Mare letnji dan delala? 

Pri moru sam ruzice trgala 

Puna nedra, i oba rukava 

Coastal Melodies (translation) 

There is a small ship sailing 

Small ship full of beautiful girls 

The ship is made of pure gold 

The sails are threaded with silver 

While the captain is Anica a girl 

Jane was rocking little Pavle boy 

Jane was rocking him for nine years 

After nine years the tenth year she wondered 

Oh Jelena your water is icy cold 

Oh Vrbnik high mountain above the sea 

Tra-la-la-la,la-la-la high mountain 

The best girls are brought up there 

Tra-la-la-la, la-la-la brought up there 

Mother called Mara across the sea 

Mara have you washed the laundry? 

No mother I have not I have just started 

What have you been doing all day long Mara 

I was picking little roses by the sea 

My bosom and sleeves are full of them.
