Hotel Nacional

Dino Merlin · Other Songs - Dino Merlin

Izgubio sam dan
cekajuc' avion
mislio sam da ce
stici nesto prije

Prije nego dodje on
pa te pokrije
prije nego dodje on
pa te pokrije

Izgubio sam san
obilazec' bastion
od aluminija
kao nikad prije

Samo da ne dodje on
da te nasmije
samo da ne dodje on
da te nasmije

Ref.
Moje je srce hotel "Nacional"
u njemu soba, nema im broja
za svaku moju ljubav po jedna
a do te svake, po jedna tvoja

Izgubio sam glas
daj mi malo vode
pravec' ovaj med
samog sebe bodem

Samo da ne dodje on
bolje je da odem
prije nego dodje on
bolje je da odem

Ref. 2x

Hotel Nacional - Dino Merlin

Dino Merlin's "Hotel Nacional" stands as a defining track within the Croatian pop-rock canon, released during his prolific era of the 1990s. The song exemplifies his signature style, blending melodic pop sensibilities with the raw, emotive vocal delivery that characterized his discography. As a staple of his live performances and radio play, the recording captures the atmospheric quality of his work, often associated with themes of urban life and nostalgia. While specific album placements vary across different compilations and live sets, the track remains a cornerstone of his catalog, frequently featured in retrospectives of Yugoslav and Croatian music from the late twentieth century.
