Vapor Plovi Milo Vapor plovi, milo, Se valove reneže, ej! Divoyčica, milo, Rojžice, Divoyčica, milo, Košuljicu veneže, ej! Izavezla je, milo, Izvezla je, rojžice, Izavezla je, milo, Ime i prezinime. Tra-na-ni-na, tra-na-ni-na.

The Red Steamboat Steamboat is sailing, darling, Cuts through all the waves ahead. Hey! Here's my beloved, darling, Rosy red, Here's my beloved, darling, Sews a shirt so we can wed Embroidering, my darling, Pretty flowers, rosy red, Embroidering, my darling, My whole name in rosy thread. Hey! Tra-la-la-la, tra-la-la-la.
