Podcast: Ako se mene pita (If You Asked Me)


Dear Sir/Madam,
we, The High School of Economics Vukovar, Croatia, would like to participate in your Make it Heard contest. Our school radio has recorded a message of peace for their peers around Europe and the world. It is in Croatian but we are also sending you the translated version of the message/song so that you are able to understand what the core message is about.

General information:
Lyrics and the vocal: Elena Petrović, 2. g
Music: Filip Lukić

The translation:
If You Asked Me

If you asked me, life would be easier,
People would be happier and the world would be a nicer place.
If you asked, forests wouldn`t be cut down
for without oxygen everything dies.

If you asked me, there wouldn`t be famine,
we would all have a roof over our heads and life would be easier.
If you asked me, I would stop all the violence,
and there would be peace everywhere.

If you asked me, there would be no sorrow,
for without sorrow, we would all be merry.
If you asked me, there wouldn`t be orphanages,
for every child would have its own safe haven.
