Plovi barka, duboko je more
Plovi barka, duboko je more.
Anko, Ančice
Dušo i srce, moje.
Plovi barka i u barci Anka
Plovi barka i u barci Anka.
Anko, Ančice
Dušo i srce, moje.
Tvoje oko ko more duboko
Tvoje oko ko more duboko.
Anko, Ančice
Dušo i srce, moje.
The boat is sailing, the sea is deep
The boat is sailing, the sea is deep.
Annie, Annette,*
Soul and heart of mine.
The boat is sailing, Annie's on the boat
The boat is sailing, Annie's on the boat.
Annie, Annette,
Soul and heart of mine.
Your eyes are deep like the sea
Your eyes are deep like the sea.
Annie, Annette,
Soul and heart of mine.
Notes
*The line in Croatian is "Anko, Ančice". "Anka" is a diminutive form of "Anna" and "Ančice" is a diminutive of the diminutive.
You can find this song as "Plovi Barka" (above) or "Plovi barko". Plovi barko is the imperative tense, which would make the title and any lines with "plovi barko" translate to "Sail, boat".
