Lezi jedno polje
pod crvenim makom
a nad poljem ptica
koja peva svakom'
Ptico, luda ptico
nad poljem, nad makom
ubice te zloban
pojesce te lakom
Gle, oblaci polja
i od Sunca skrise
leti, leti, ptico vise
pevaj, ptico tise
pod crvenim makom
a nad poljem ptica
koja peva svakom'
Ptico, luda ptico
nad poljem, nad makom
ubice te zloban
pojesce te lakom
Gle, oblaci polja
i od Sunca skrise
leti, leti, ptico vise
pevaj, ptico tise
