Pivopija
The Beer Lover
Uvijek slušam Radio Valpovo,pa sve znadem što imade novo.
It's Radio Valpovo I always choose,so I'm up on all the latest news.
Jučer slušam reklamu uživo,da se nudi iz Osijeka pivo.
Just yesterday I heard a live-aired ad:there's beer from Osijek now to be had.
Pivopija ja sam uvijek bioi Osječko pivo u slast pio.
I've always been a beer man, through and through,and drunk Osječko beer with relish too.
Da dokažem, meni problem nije,imam flaša i sanduk od prije.
To prove it, I've no trouble, never fear:I've bottles, and a crate from yesteryear.
Za dobroga pivopiju važim,Šeperovo pivo uvijek tražim.
I'm counted as a beer man, good and true;I always ask for Šeperovo brew.
Vjerujte mi istina je živa,rado pijem ja Eseker piva.
Believe me, it's the living truth I tell:I gladly drink Eseker beer as well.
Zato sanjam skoro svaku veče,kako pivo Karašicom teče.
And so, most every evening, I will dreamthat beer flows down the Karašica stream.
Mnogo sreće u Osijeku gradu,pivarcima u njihovom radu.
Good luck to Osijek, to that city fair,and to the brewers in their labour there.
Da nikada za štrajk ne bi znali,ni u krizu financijsku pali.
May strikes be something they will never know,and may no money crisis lay them low.
Da im kasa bude uvijek puna,za blokadu ne znali računa.
May all their tills be full, day after day,and frozen bank accounts stay far away.
Valpovački stanovnici mili,dobro pivo iz Osijeka pili.
Dear folk of Valpovo, drink your fillof Osijek's good beer, and with a will!
Nek' vam bude veselo i živo:pozdravlja vas iz Valpova Ivo!
May you be merry, lively, full of cheer:from Valpovo, Ivo sends his greetings here!
