Key vocabulary from Moana song

vsaka steza – every path

jadro – sail

otok – island
na robu morja | at the edge of the sea |
vsaka steza | every path |
privlačen kraj | attractive place |
Ko se morje dotika neba | When the sea touches the sky |
veter v jadru na poti | the wind in the sail on the way |
vsi na tem otoku | everyone on that island |
na morju se sonce blešči | at sea the sun shines |
pridem v daljave | I go far away |
do kod naj grem | how far I’ll go |

Slovene Moana song video and text
Čakam dolgo tu na robu morja,
dlje kot sploh se spominjam.
Kaj privlači me, ne vem.
Rada bi bila popolna hčerka,
a me ves čas mami voda.
Vabi me v svoj objem.
Kamorkoli grem in kjerkoli sem,
vsaka steza, ki pred seboj jo zrem,
vodi me nazaj na privlačen kraj,
kamor si želim.
Ko se morje dotika neba, me vabi.
Nihče ne ve, do kod to gre.
In če veter v jadru na poti bo z mano, morda izvem.
A če grem, težko je reči, do kod bom šla.
Saj vem, da vsi na tem otoku,
srečni so na tem otoku.
Vse je kot iz škatlice.
Vem, da čisto vsak na tem otoku,
vlogo ima na otoku.
Morda navadim svoje se.
Če želim, bom močna, ponosna vsa,
svoje mesto dobro zapolnila.
A v srcu glas kljuva že ves čas,
kaj narobe je?
Glej, na morju se sonce blešči, slepi me.
Nihče ne ve, do kod to gre.
In se zdi, kot da vabi me naj pridem v daljave, da končno izvem,
kaj se skriva tam, bom prešla do tja.
Tja, kjer morje poljublja nebo in vabi.
Nihče ne ve, do kod to gre.
In če veter v jadru na poti bo z mano, morda izvem,
do kod naj grem.
Moana song English lyrics
I’ve been staring at the edge of the water
Long as I can remember, never really knowing why
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try
Every turn I take, every trail I track
Every path I make, every road leads back
To the place I know where I cannot go
Where I long to be
See the line where the sky meets the sea
It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I’ll know
If I go there’s just no telling how far I’ll go
I know everybody on this island seems so happy, on this island
Everything is by design
I know everybody on this island has a role, on this island
So maybe I can roll with mine
I can lead with pride, I can make us strong
I’ll be satisfied if I play along
But the voice inside sings a different song
What is wrong with me?
See the light as it shines on the sea
It’s blinding
But no one knows, how deep it goes
And it seems like it’s calling out to me, so come find me
And let me know
What’s beyond that line, will I cross that line?
See the line where the sky meets the sea
It calls me
And no one knows, how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I’ll know
How far I’ll go
