Baranjsko sunce
The Baranja Sun
U Belome BARANJSKO JE SUNCE,dom za stare i nemoćne ljude,mnogima je utočište dalo,bolna srca mnoga obasjalo.
Beli has the BARANJA SUN, a homefor the aged people and the frail;many found a refuge at its door,aching hearts it shone on by the score.
Ovaj DOM se časno sad ponosi,što BARANJSKO SUNCE ime nosi.Oni što su ime DOMU dali,snagu sunca oduvijek su znali.
Now with honour this HOME is proud to claimthat the BARANJA SUN is its name.Those who gave the HOME this name had knownall the strength the sun has as its own.
Svima vama što ste u tom DOMU,usamljeni u životu svomu,nek' vam teku u ljepoti dani,od BARANJSKOG SUNCA obasjani.
All of you who in this HOME now stay,lonely as your life has gone its way,may your days in beauty pass and run,shone upon by the BARANJA SUN.
Tuga vas je morila u tami,noć je tiha, vi kod kuće sami,ali ovdje blažene su noći,jer vi znate SUNCE će pomoći.
Sorrow wore you down in dark and gloom,silent nights alone in your own room,but the nights here bring a blessed rest,for you know the SUN will do its best.
I starački dovukli se jadi,kao nekad niste više mladi,često puta bolno kuca srce,tko će pomoć ako neće SUNCE.
Then the woes of age came creeping in,you're not young the way you once had been;often now your aching heart will pound:who will help, unless the SUN comes round?
Nakon snova kad otvoriš oči,sve što trebaš SUNCE će pomoći,dobar ručak i društvo te čeka,prije snova posteljica meka.
When your eyes from dreaming open wide,all you need the SUN will then provide;lunch and company await you here,and a soft bed when your dreams draw near.
Pa zar može nešto bolje biti,u noćima divne snove sniti.Vaša mladost u snove se vrati,to vam može samo SUNCE dati.
Could there be a better thing than this:in the night to dream sweet dreams of bliss?Youth comes back to you in dreams anew;this the SUN alone can give to you.
