Domovini

Simon Gregorčič · Other SOngs - Simon Gregorčič

Bodi zdrava domovina,
mili moj slovenski kraj!

Bodi zdrava domovina,
mili moj slovenski kraj!
Ti prekrasna, ti edina,
meni si zemeljski raj.

Tuje šege, tuje ljudstvo
so prijat'lji, bratje ne,
slava le slovansko čustvo
srce moje veseli.
Srce moje veseli.

Primi celov, zemlja mila,
primi srce moje v dar.
Da bi vedno matka bila,
nepozabljena nikdar.
Da bi vedno matka bila,
nepozabljena nikdar.
