English translation:Take care and hear you soon.
Explanation:
Cuvaj se means take care (I am 99% sure), and the rest is also just a figure of speech, a phrase in Bosnian and also Slovenian language(it means, that you will be in touch, you will speak in near future...).

I think take care is less formal than take care of yourself - as we see in the original the register does not seem to be very formal in my oppinion.
