Rimljani
Bajaga · Other Songs - Bajaga
Staro se carstvo prostire od planina sa istoka
Od planina sa istoka do ostrih morskih hridina
Gde stize svetlost nebeska, gde stize ljubav bozija.
Cuvari dalekih granica javljaju preko glasnika
Juzna plemena ratnicka su stigla ispod zidina
I sve je vise barbara, a sve je manje Rimljana.
Polazim teska koraka
Srcem trgujem ispod oblaka
Oci ti ne pokazujem
Vidim, ne gledam, samo osecam.
Odlazim mokrom ulicom
Dane protekle brisem gumicom
Trudim se da se ne secam
Kad zaboravim, lakse podnosim.
Kad zaboravim, lakse podnosim.
Od planina sa istoka do ostrih morskih hridina
Gde stize svetlost nebeska, gde stize ljubav bozija.
Cuvari dalekih granica javljaju preko glasnika
Juzna plemena ratnicka su stigla ispod zidina
I sve je vise barbara, a sve je manje Rimljana.
Polazim teska koraka
Srcem trgujem ispod oblaka
Oci ti ne pokazujem
Vidim, ne gledam, samo osecam.
Odlazim mokrom ulicom
Dane protekle brisem gumicom
Trudim se da se ne secam
Kad zaboravim, lakse podnosim.
Kad zaboravim, lakse podnosim.
