Yes - an authentic and inspiring story about the harsh life of the ex fish vendor in the Slovenian coastal town of Izola. David Sinković became a star in 2014 when he published this song. I believe he is still an icon for many aspiring songwriters.


We all agree that music is incredible. The back vocalist did a great job too. The video and the special effects in the background could quickly run for an Oscar. But - the king of all - is the text of this song:

Here is the English Translation:


Niy niy niy niy niy....niy niy niy (2times)



When I wake up in the morning,

I go to work.

I'm still sleepy

But when I arrive there (work),

it gets better (not slippy anymore),

Every single day,


I'm waiting for people,

to pass by,

I'm waiting for the people

to come

to buy fish, fish

frash fish

and eat them (fish)

REF:

Fishy fishy fish... fish

healthy fish...fish

fishy fish....fish

fishy fish....fish

fresh fish

and eat them


Niy niy niy niy niy....niy niy niy (2times)


Here comes the firs gentleman

he buys one kilo

a kilo of sardines


Behind him in line

waits another lady

he wants picarels....picarels

little fish....fish

Niy niy niy niy niy....niy niy niy (2times)
