Skuhat' cu ti supu
oprat' cu ti sudje
malo svjezeg zraka
u sobu nek' udje

Spremit' cu ti krevet
donijet' cu ti grozdje
nek' nam ovaj zivot
u veselju prodje

Jer tebe volim zeno
zeno, tebe volim
zbog tebe cu zeno
sutra da obolim, ja

Imat' cemo slavlje
pozvat' cemo ljude
zima neka ode
proljece nek' bude

Skuhat' cu ti supu
oprat' cu ti sudje
mila moja draga
nije mi do tudje

Ref.
Jer tebe volim zeno
zeno, tebe volim
za tebe cu zeno
u vatri da izgorim, ja

Jer tebe volim zeno
zeno, tebe volim
za tebe cu zeno
i sutra da obolim, obolim

8. mart

The narrator celebrates International Women’s Day through domestic care: soup, clean dishes, fresh air, a made bed and grapes. The list is ordinary, even deliberately unheroic, and that is part of the song’s charm. Love is shown not through grand gifts but through taking on the work that makes a shared home comfortable. The promise is simple: today should be joyful, and the speaker is happy to care for the woman he loves.

There is also a comic reversal in the repeated wish to become ill for her, a melodramatic way of measuring devotion. But the domestic gestures carry a more grounded message than the grand declarations. The lyric raises a familiar question around a holiday that recognizes women’s social and political achievements: is affection expressed through one day of service, or should care be shared every day? The song does not answer explicitly, but its chores make the question hard to miss.

The release trail offers a firmer point of reference than a chart narrative: It appears on *Pun Mjesec*, an album dated 2004-09-24, issued by Konvoj. This placement is firmer context than a speculative claim about the chart history of the song. I could not verify a dependable chart position or an independent review of this specific recording, so its wider reception remains unquantified rather than something to infer from its lyrics.

Konvoj’s light pop-rock sensibility turns the occasion into a warm, singable serenade rather than a formal anthem. No independent song-specific review was located; the catalog context is discussed above. Its most endearing feature is the scale of the offering: the narrator cannot promise to change the world, but he can cook, clean and invite people over. Heard critically, that ordinary labor is also a reminder that appreciation becomes meaningful when it is practiced, not only sung.
