Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ime, priimek - name and surname clear
Družina means family here
Oče is father, mama too
Brat and sestra - brother, sister who
Mož is husband, žena wife
Otrok, sin, hči - children in your life

[Chorus]
Build your words one by one
Slovenian has begun
Thousand words to learn each day
Speaking in a brand new way
Ime, družina, hiša, mesto
Learning fast, we'll never let go

[Verse 2]
Hiša, stanovanje - house and flat
Soba, kuhinja where we're at
Postelja for sleeping sound
Ključ, vrata, okno can be found
Key and door and window bright
Home is where we spend the night

[Chorus]
Build your words one by one
Slovenian has begun
Thousand words to learn each day
Speaking in a brand new way
Hiša, kuhinja, kruh and voda
Memory palace, we will hold ya

[Verse 3]
Kruh and meso - bread and meat
Mleko, voda - drink so sweet
Pivo, vino - beer and wine
Kava, sadje - coffee fine
Zelenjava, kosilo, večerja too
Vegetables and meals for you

[Bridge]
Mesto, ulica down the street
Avtobus and vlak we meet
Postaja and letališče waiting
Transportation never hating
Avtomobil drives around
City words are what we've found

[Verse 4]
Delo, služba - work each day
Šola, univerza - study way
Izpit testing what you know
Učiti se - learning how to grow
Pisati, brati - write and read
Knowledge is what you will need

[Chorus]
Build your words one by one
Slovenian has begun
Thousand words to learn each day
Speaking in a brand new way
Delo, šola, denar, trgovina
Every word will make you shine-a

[Verse 5]
Denar, evro in your hand
Trgovina - shopping land
Cena, plačati the price to pay
Kupiti, prodati every day
Račun shows what you have spent
Shopping words were heaven sent

[Verse 6]
Zdravnik, bolnišnica for care
Boleti when pain is there
Glava, telo - head and body strong
Zdravje, recept, lekarna all along
Health and medicine you'll need
Slovenian words will plant the seed

[Verse 7]
Vreme, dež, sneg, sonce shine
Weather words are truly fine
Gora, jezero, morje, reka flow
Drevo, gozd where forests grow
Nature speaks in every way
Learning words throughout the day

[Verse 8]
Vesel, žalosten how you feel
Jezen emotions are so real
Misliti, čutiti, želeti, upati
Think and feel and wish and be happy
Strinjati se when you agree
Feelings set your spirit free

[Verse 9]
Danes, jutri, včeraj time
Zdaj, potem in rhythm and rhyme
Kmalu, vedno, nikoli, pogosto
Time expressions help you most-o
Past and future, now and then
Slovenian time flows like a pen

[Outro]
Fifteen hundred words to know
Watch your vocabulary grow
From family to time and weather
All these words will bind together
Slovenian language in your heart
Every word a brand new start
