FYR Macedonia: Vlado Janevski - Ne zori, zoro
Eurovision Song Contest · Eurovision Song Contest 1998 [1998]
V pushti noychta da gi sokrie
Ochive shto radyat biseri
Srtzevo shto druga ne lyubi
Vinoto me vodi do nea
A se podaleku od pameta
Yas moram da piyam
Da se opiyam
Bez nea da zhiveam
Mayko, ne mozham
Odi mayko prashay, kay neyzinite
Laukedi ya dadat za mene
Ako ya dadat, vikni svirachi
Ako ne, mesto kletva
Po mene zaplachi
Yas moram da piyam
Da se opiyam
Bez nea sam da zhiveam
Mayko, ne mozham
Yas moram da piyam
Da se opiyam
Bez nea sam da zhiveam
Mayko, ne mozham
Ne zori, zoro
Piyano oro
So mene zaigray
Ne zori, zoro
