Dala majka sinove

Dala majka sinove da odu u ratove
ali tebe ne bi dala ja
izda covjek Boga svog, izda zena muza svog
al' ja tebe ne bi nikada
Zali majka suzama plodove na njivama
a ja zalih puste drumove
svako ide domu svom, a ja prema srcu tvom
jer ja samo tamo stanujem
Oj lele tuga nosi kofere
ljubav k'o siroce putuje
oj lele kako mora biti ce
svaka rijeka moru stici ce
Ref.
Rodi zemlja planine, rodi drvo masline
i ja tebe usred pustinje
pjesmama te gojila od sebe te stvorila
za tebe se Bogu molila
Oj lele tuga nosi kofere
ljubav k'o siroce putuje
oj lele kako mora biti ce
svaka rijeka moru stici ce
Oj lele tuga nosi kofere
ljubav k'o siroce putuje
oj lele kako mora biti ce
svaka rijeka moru stici ce
(2x)
Oj lele kako mora biti ce
svaka rijeka moru stici ce
