Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I ne bojmo se vrijet
Bog je pozva nas
Da mijenjamo svijet
Mi smo ljudi krscani
I ne bojmo se mrijet
Samo ljubav moze
Ora et labora znaj,
to je put u vjecni raj
i zivot nije kraj
i moliti, raditi
Ora et labora znaj,
to je put u vjecni raj
i zivot nije kraj
i moliti, raditi
Ora et labora znaj,
to je put u vjecni raj
i zivot nije kraj

The bridge repeats the command to "know, pray and work" before reiterating that "life is not the end." This line can be interpreted as a reminder that there is more beyond this life and that the effort put into making a difference in the world will be worth it in the end.
The song incorporates themes of faith and action against a backdrop of resistance. The lyrics encourage listeners to resist societal pressures to conform, to use their faith to guide them, and to work towards a better future. Overall, the song can be interpreted as a rallying cry to use strength and faith to provoke change in the world.
