Kraj tanana sadrvana
gdje zubori voda ziva
setala se svakog dana
sultanova cerka mila

Svakog dana jedno ropce
stajalo kraj sadrvana
kako vrijeme prolazilo
momce blijedje bljedje bilo

Pitala ga jednog dana
sultanova cerka mila
kazuj ropce odakle si
iz plemena kojega si

Ja se zovem Stulic Djoni
iz plemena starih Azra
sto za ljubav glavu gube
i umiru kada ljube
