You already know this section: where I share a Croatian song, the lyrics, and useful vocabulary.
Learning through music is not only fun and engaging, but it also helps improve your listening skills, pronunciation, and cultural understanding.
Croatian music is rich and full of emotion, and it’s a great way to hear the language as it’s really spoken.
Let’s enjoy the rhythm, discover new words, and learn Croatian in a natural, musical way!
Text with lyrics of the song in Croatian and English
Ima smisla
Da, nema smislaJaPisala sam ove riječi stoputGledala u bijelo, prazno, daleko bez smislaJa (jaaaa)Mijenjala sam sebe sve iznovaDa sam bolja, da sam uvijek novaBez smislaAl' vrijeme je da prihvatiš sve što se dogodiloI vrijeme je da shvatim pod uvjetom se volimoZnaš da nisam taZašto držiš me za rukeZašto ne puštaš me dalje da nastavimDa hodamZašto prekidaš mi snoveTo sve dok kažeš da je bolje da nastavimDa hodamSamaSamaAl' nisam samaTuU kutu ove prazne male sobeNekad dio našeg sada mojeIma smislaAl' sadVrijeme je da nosiš sve dalekoTamo gdje nas nema gdje si nekoKoga neznamVišeAl' vrijeme je da prihvatiš sve što se dogodiloVrijeme je da shvatim pod uvjetom se volimoZnaš da nisi tajZašto držiš me za rukeZašto ne puštaš me dalje da nastavimDa hodamZašto prekidaš mi snoveTo sve dok kažeš da je bolje da nastavimDa hodamSamaSamaAl' nisam samaMožda vrijeme kaže moglo je drugačije(drugačije)A živa sam jer tuđe ruke držale su me snažnijeI drže zauvijekI dok ispušta mi rukeGleda kako idem daljeI nastavljamJa hodamViše nemam prazne snoveKad sam budna sve je boljeI nastavljamJa hodamSamaSamaAl' nikad samaIt makes sense
Yes, it doesn't make sense
Me
I wrote these words a hundred times
Stared into the white, empty, far away without meaning
Me (yaaaa)
I changed myself over and over again
That I was better, that I was always new
No meaning
But it's time to accept everything that happened
And it's time to understand on condition that we love each other
You know I'm not the one
Why are you holding my hands
Why aren't you letting me continue
To walk
Why are you interrupting my dreams
That's all the time you say it's better to keep going
To walk
Alone
Alone
But I'm not alone
Here
In the corner of this empty little room
Once a part of ours, now mine
It makes sense
But now
It's time to carry everything away
Where we're not where you are
Who I don't know
More
But it's time to accept everything that happened
It's time to understand on condition that we love each other
You know you're not the one
Why are you holding my hands
Why aren't you letting me continue keep on
To walk
Why do you interrupt my dreams
That's until you say it's better for me to keep on
To walk
Alone
Alone
But I'm not alone
Maybe time says it could have been different
(different)
And I'm alive because other people's hands held me stronger
And they hold me forever
And while he lets go of my hands
He watches me go on
And I keep on
I walk
I don't have empty dreams anymore
When I'm awake everything is better
And I keep on
I walk
Alone
Alone
But never alone
