Is a skill you have developed,

You are totally mistaken.

Your surrender is a Delight-Gift

        From God Himself.

Ako kažeš da je tvoja predaja

Veština koju si razvio,

Potpuno se varaš.

Tvoja predaja je Blaženi Dar

        Od Boga Samog.

When God dictates,

My soul takes notes,

My heart watches,

My mind sleeps and snores.

Kad Bog diktira,

Moja duša zapisuje,

Moje srce posmatra,

Moj um spava i hrče.

        Childhood

Is a beautiful dream.

        Youth

Is a powerful reality.

        Age

Is a soulful surrender.

        Detinjstvo

Je predivan san.

        Mladost

Je duševna predaja.

God is His Compassion-Eye.

        Therefore

We human beings

Can dare to hope and dream.

Bog je Njegovo Oko Samilosti.

        Zato

Mi, ljudska bića,

Smemo da se nadamo i sanjamo.

Only one flag

Flies above all the rest:

The flag of universal oneness.

Samo jedna zastava

Vijori se iznas svih drugih:

Zastava univerzalnog jedinstva.
