My dad my captain was the anchor of my young life. He showed me the beauty of the sea and the meaning of safety. This is a tribute to the man who shaped my world. Memories of him are my most precious treasure today.
Moj tata
Nisam vam nikada rekla tko je bio moj tata.
Moja dobra vila, moj mir i moja dobrota.
Moja dobra vila, moj mir i moja dobrota.
On je bio kapetan našeg broda,
na kojem smo se mama i ja uvijek osjećale sigurno.
Imale smo sunce koje nas je pratilo,
jer ga je tata za nas dvije uvijek znao postaviti na pravo mjesto.

Vidio nas je mirnim pogledom,
volio blagim osmijehom
i govorio tihim glasom
u kojem nije bilo straha.

Naš kapetan imao je svoju radnu disciplinu,
ali nikada nas njome nije opterećivao.
Sve je radio u svoje vrijeme,
povezan s morem i nebom,
jer sigurnost za nas dvije
bila mu je prva stvar na svijetu.

I dok smo plovili plavim, mirnim morem,
mogli smo zajedno plesati i pjevati,
u ljubavi koju je malo svijeta vidjelo.

Naš brod bio je satkan od ljubavi i sigurnosti,
a naša tri srca
kucala su kao jedno.

I dok danas gledam unatrag,
znam da sam odrasla u luci
iz koje se uvijek polazi bez straha.
Jer ja sam dijete kapetana.

Mon papa
Je ne vous ai jamais dit qui était mon papa.
Ma bonne fée, ma paix et ma bonté.

Il était le capitaine de notre navire,
sur lequel maman et moi nous sentions toujours en sécurité.
Nous avions le soleil qui nous suivait,
car papa savait toujours le placer au bon endroit pour nous deux.

Il faisait tout en son temps,
connecté à la mer et au ciel,
car notre sécurité à toutes les deux
était sa priorité absolue au monde.

Et tandis que nous naviguions sur une mer bleue et calme,
nous pouvions danser et chanter ensemble,
dans un amour que peu de gens ont vu.

et nos trois cœurs
battaient à l’unisson.

Et en regardant en arrière aujourd’hui,
je sais que j’ai grandi dans un port
d’où l’on part toujours sans peur.
Car je suis l’enfant d’un capitaine.

My Dad
I never told you who my dad was.
My good fairy, my peace, and my kindness.

He was the captain of our ship,
where mom and I always felt safe.
We had the sun following us,
because dad always knew how to place it right for the two of us.

but he never burdened us with it.
He did everything in his own time,

was the first thing in the world to him.

we could dance and sing together,

Because I am a captain’s child.
