    ~~~ Lyrics ~~~
    Diçka mrena
    Frymën ma nal’
    S’di çka bohet, bohet
    Po du me e nal’
    (Ç’ka o ka bohet?!)
    Krejt tu i pas’
    E krejt tu i pas’
    S’po muj me u k’naq
    Jan’ tu u nda
    Vec për nji fjal’
    Jan’ tu u nda
    Dashnin’ kan’ vra
    Jan’ tu u nda
    E kan’ harru
    Se kan’ nji shpi
    Sofër me f’mij’
    Duje!
    Si dikur ti duje
    At’ dashni ti ruje!
    Si jeten ti duje!
    Mos e gjuj me gure!
    Si dikur ti duje
    At’ dashni ti ruje
    Sa jeten ti duje!
    Jan’ tu u nda
    Vec për nji fjal’
    Jan’ tu u nda
    Dashnin’ kan’ vra
    Jan’ tu u nda
    E kan’ harru
    Se kan’ nji shpi
    Sofër me f’mij’
    Duje!
    Si dikur ti duje
    At’ dashni ti ruje!
    Si jeten ti duje!
    Mos e gjuj me gure!
    Si dikur ti duje
    At’ dashni ti ruje
    Sa jeten ti duje!
    (Duje , duje)
    Jan’ tu u nda
    (Duje, duje)
    Vec për nji fjal’
    Jan’ tu u nda
    Dashnin’ kan’ vra
    ( Duje, duje)
    Jan’ tu u nda
    (Duje, duje)
    E kan’ harru
    Se kan’ nji shpi
    Sofër me f’mij’
    (Duje, duje)

Këtë vit jam krenare dhe e emocionuar për këngën dhe artisten që na përfaqëson. Një këngë që të ngjeth shpirtin me fuqinë e saj ku më mirë se një familje e vërtetë nuk mund ta shprehte. Pavarësisht renditjes në finale jemi krenar dhe të fituar me juve Familja Kelmendi... Suksese Albina❤️❤️❤️

    Duje means to love. Translating the entire meaning is hard from language to language as it can be lost in translation but the meaning of the song is to not throw away love or family just because of one disagreement. Basically to focus on love. The song is sung in the Gheg Albanian dialect spoken mostly in Kosovo, North Macedonia, North Albania and Montenegro.
    Lyrics translated:
    Something inside me
    takes my breath away.
    I don´t know what´s happening
    but I want to stop it.
    Don´t know what´s happening
    having it all
    I still can´t enjoy it
    They are breaking up
    Just because of a word
    They are breaking up, forsaking love
    They are breaking up
    They forgot that they have a home
    with kids around the table
    Chorus:
    Love them, just like you did before
    Safeguard that love
    Just like life, safeguard it
    Don´t throw it away (like a stone)
    Love them, just like you did before
    Safeguard that love
    Just like life, safeguard it
    You love them, just like you did before
    You safeguard that love
    Just like life, you safeguard it
    Don´t throw it away (like a stone)
    Love them, just like you did before
    Safeguard that love
    Just like life, safeguard it
    Love them (Duje, duje)x2
    They are breaking up ( They are breaking up)x2
    They forgot that they have a home
    with kids around the table...

    For those who don't understand the lyrics - this song is about people who love each other (i.e. a family) breaking apart over a small conflict. The chorus is preaching to protect the love that means so much to you. It's even more beautiful that she is up there with her entire family!

      ​@@lidijabanjic Lukina pesma ima lepu jako poruku ali je evropska, nema tu naše duše, Porodica Kelmendi sa druge strane, naježim se, tačno se oseti to srce balkansko u njihovim stihovima i načinu pevanja, a plesanje. PLESANJE! ma, srbin ili ne moram reci, oni su iskreno ponos balkana u poslednju deceniju ovako istinski tradicijonalnu pesmu nismo poslali.
