Slovene lyrics of Otok, ki ga ni:

Šla sem stran, saj ti le plavaš, ne poslušaš.
Iščeš otok, otok, ki ga ni.
Le zakaj ne čutiš mojega izbruha,
ki rojevam ga na dnu srca?

Refren:
Hej ti, ki plavaš proti toku!
Hej ti, ki tekmuješ z valovi!
Ali slišiš, kako pojejo zvonovi?
Ali slišiš, kako razbija mi srce?

Poletim in vidim plavati usodo.
Slišim ribe, govorijo mi.

Refren:
Hej ti, ki plavaš proti toku!
Hej ti, ki tekmuješ z valovi!
Ali slišiš, kako pojejo zvonovi?
Ali slišiš, kako razbija mi srce?

The english Lyrics of The island that's not there:

I went away as you only swim, never listen.
Looking for an island, an island that's not there.
Why can't you feel the eruption
I’m bringing to life at the bottom of my heart?

Refrain:
Hey you, swimming against the current!
Looking for an island, an island that's not there!
Can you hear the bells singing?
Can you hear my heart beating?

I fly and see my destiny aswim.
I hear the fish speaking to me.
