My songs - My dreams
In the hush of the early morning, when the world is still dreaming and the first hint of dawn paints the sky, my imagination takes flight! It’s in these golden hours that words spill onto the page, born from a mind unbound by the day’s demands. Each sentence is a brushstroke, painting vibrant landscapes of thought and feeling. And what better companion to this creative dance than music? It’s the natural evolution, the harmonious echo of every whispered idea, every burgeoning concept. Music doesn’t just accompany; it elevates, amplifies, and weaves itself into the very fabric of the narrative, turning simple words into a symphony of expression. Together, words and music, born in the quiet magic of dawn, create a world uniquely mine, bursting with passion and life!
U tišini ranog jutra, dok svijet još sanja i prva rumen zore boji nebo, mašta mi uzlijeće. U tim zlatnim satima riječi se slijevaju na stranicu, oslobođene dnevnih zahtjeva. Svaka je rečenica potez kista, pejzaž misli i osjećaja. A najbolji suputnik tom plesu je muzika: ne samo da prati, već uzdiže i utka se u pripovijest, pretvarajući riječi u simfoniju izraza. Zajedno, riječi i muzika, rođene u tihoj magiji zore, stvaraju moj jedinstveni svijet, pun strasti i života. Taj sveti ritual me uzemljuje, pretvarajući kratke iskre nadahnuća u odjeke koji traju i poslije jutra.

Aurora Tropical Afro House Italian Version
Nel villaggio sul lago, dove l’alba dolce va,
Aurora sogna strade che il cuore le aprirà.
Le montagne la chiamano, sussurrano il suo nome,
La curiosità che brucia la porta oltre le zone.
Nella foresta scura una luce fa “venire”,
Un portale di colori che la vuole far salire.
Un passo verso il ritmo, il cuore batte bass,
Entra in un mondo nuovo — inizia il suo big dance.
Aurora — vai, vai, vai,
Cielo lavanda, oro intorno a lei.
Aurora — il mondo si aprirà,
La magia la guida, l’anima brillerà.
Oh Aurora — rise, rise, rise.
Draghi nella luce, alberi che parlano,
Creature fatte d’ombra accanto a lei camminano.
Draco, il vecchio saggio, le dona il suo sapere,
Le insegna l’equilibrio di un regno da tenere.
Ogni sfida è un beat, ogni passo un nuovo vibe,
La forza dentro cresce, lei protegge il suo tribe.
Diventa la guardiana di mondi senza meta,
Libera e coraggiosa — la guida la planeta.
Aurora — vai, vai, vai,
Cielo lavanda, oro intorno a lei.
Aurora — le storie porterà,
Accende nuovi sogni in chi l’ascolterà.
Oh Aurora — rise, rise, rise.
Ponosim se Zemljom svojom
Žarko sunce nad poljima sjaji,
na obzoru zove stara gruda,
U srcu se ime Hrvatske rađa,
u svakom dahu pjesma huda.
Za one koji do zadnjeg stajaše,
za branitelje srcem krvlju pisane,
Vukovar u nama ne prestajaše,
njegov vapaj u tišini slavne rane.
Šibenik i zidovi mu od kamena,
gdi zvona spominju pjesme i mornare,
a Dubrovnik sjaj na moru plavom, pjena,
pamti ljubav, pamti suze, pamti stare.
O Djevice Marijo kraljice Hrvata,
u molitvi ti svoj narod drži,
pod tvojim plaštem svaka rana se satra,
i svaka nada opet glasno plamenom prži.
Neka ime junaka živi kroz vjekove,
neka zvone pjesme preko polja i mora,
gradovi naše krvi, spomeni gorke i slatke,
u srcu nosimo slobodu kao zora.
Hodimo čvrsto putem pravde i ponosa,
sjećanje čuvajmo, istinu ne damo,
domovini vjerni, bez mraka i puni zanosa,
gradimo budućnost onako kako znamo.
United we stand
Made according to the short sci-fi story “United We Stay” by Marijan Dubravica.
A story about hope, unity, the present, and the future. Many things intertwine in that story; there’s also Arthur C. Clarke / Childhood’s End, Asimov / Foundation, Aldous Huxley / Ape and Essence, Blade Runner, Cyberpunk 2077, and, of course, SSV Normandy and Commander Shepard.
A short story, even more, an essay, which was created under the idea that in 1945, Aliens, not communists, took over Croatia, but at the same time, it is a story that can be applied to the current situation in Croatia and the whole World.
