Lyrics

• Slovene
• Translation

Vzemi, vzemi cvet v roko
Ne sprašuj kako bom brez tebe
Daj ga na prsi svoje
Naj spomin ti bo na mene
Moj beli cvet, moj daljni svet
Daj, vrni se, moj bodi spet
Za vedno vse moje v življenju tvoje je
Cvet z juga, blizu morja še, jaz čakam te
Še čakam te

(Moj beli cvet)

Ljubim nekaj, česar več ni
Le privid si mi iz daljnih dni

Moj beli cvet (Moj beli cvet, moj beli cvet)
Moj daljni svet (Moj beli cvet, moj beli cvet)
Daj, vrni se, moj bodi spet
Za vedno vse moje v življenju tvoje je
Cvet z juga, blizu morja še, jaz čakam te

(Moj beli cvet, moj daljni svet)
(Daj, vrni se, moj bodi spet)
Za vedno vse moje v življenju tvoje je
Cvet z juga, blizu morja še, jaz čakam te
Še čakam te

Take, take this flower in your hand
Don’t ask how I’ll manage without you
Put it on your heart
Let it remind you of me
My white flower, my faraway world
Come, return, be mine again
Everything of me is forever yours in this lifetime
Flower of the south, still close to the sea, I’m waiting for you
I’m still waiting for you

(My white flower)

I love something that is not there anymore
You’re just my vision from times past

My white flower (My white flower, my white flower)
My faraway world (My white flower, my white flower)
Come, return, be mine again
Everything of me is forever yours in this lifetime
Flower of the south, still close to the sea, I’m waiting for you

(My white flower, my faraway world)
(Come, return, be mine again)
Everything of me is forever yours in this lifetime
Flower of the south, still close to the sea, I’m waiting for you
I’m still waiting for you
