[Verse 1]
Sunce sja, dan je vedar,
The sun is shining, the day is clear,
Klapa pjeva, stari zbor.
The klapa sings, the old choir.
Sjećanja nam dušu diraju,
Memories touch our souls,
Naš je kraj sad, dragi stvor.
Our end is now, dear creature.
[Chorus]
Matura je, srce pjeva,
It's graduation, my heart sings,
Kraj putovanja, novi san.
End of a journey, a new dream.
Naša klapa, vječna ljubav,
Our klapa, eternal love,
Pamti svaki sretan dan.
Remembers every happy day.
[Verse 2]
Knjige teške, učenje,
Heavy books, studying,
Smijeh i suze, sve je to.
Laughter and tears, that's all it is.
Sad je došao kraj priče,
Now the story has come to an end,
Novi početak, to je to.
A new beginning, that's it.
[Chorus]
Matura je, srce pjeva,
It's graduation, my heart sings,
Kraj putovanja, novi san.
End of a journey, a new dream.
Naša klapa, vječna ljubav,
Our klapa, eternal love,
Pamti svaki sretan dan.
Remembers every happy day.
[Bridge]
Put nas zove, svak na svoju stranu,
The road calls us, each to their own side,
Ali srce uvijek vratit će se tu.
But the heart will always return here.
[Chorus]
Matura je, srce pjeva,
It's graduation, my heart sings,
Kraj putovanja, novi san.
End of a journey, a new dream.
Naša klapa, vječna ljubav,
Our klapa, eternal love,
Pamti svaki sretan dan.
Remembers every happy day.
Lines explained
“Klapa pjeva, stari zbor.”
The klapa sings, the old choir.
A 'klapa' is a traditional form of a cappella singing in Dalmatia, Croatia, typically performed by a group of men. Here it refers to the close-knit group of friends or classmates.
“Naš je kraj sad, dragi stvor.”
Our end is now, dear creature.
'Dragi stvor' literally means 'dear creature' or 'dear being'. In this context, it's an affectionate and slightly melancholic way of referring to their time together or perhaps their youth, which is now ending.
“Ali srce uvijek vratit će se tu.”
But the heart will always return here.
This line expresses the enduring bond of friendship, suggesting that even as they go their separate ways, their hearts will always be drawn back to the memories and the connection they shared.

The idea it was sung from
NEMA POVRATKA [ŽENSKI SEKSI ŠAPAT] Shadow Beatz… [MUŠKI GLAS – DUBOKO] Noć je hladna, grad je budan, svaki osmijeh može bit’ otrovan. Puno priče, malo djela, svaka maska jednom pada s lica. Korak po korak, gradim svoje, ne dam nikom da mi snove kroje. Iza leđa čujem prazne priče, al’ moj put sve dalje, sve ih stiže. Ne tražim milost, ne tražim spas, predugo sam ček’o svoj čas. Dok oni pričaju,
