U lijepom starom gradu Visegradu
Bora Drljaca · Other Songs - Bora Drljaca
gdje duboka Drina vjekovima tece
ostade mi samo tuzna uspomena
asikovah s dragom skoro svako vece (2x)
Visegrade grade, gdje je moja draga
ko da sa mnom nikad sretna nije bila
gledao sam Drinu dok me je ljubila
zar je nasu ljubav vec zaboravila (2x)
Pa i jutro slusam, pjevaju slavuji
na Bikavcu brdu grada Visegrada
ustaj curo mala, ruzo procvjetala
vec je zora rana Drinu obasjala (2x)
Evo sam ti dosao, sjedim na Bikavcu
slusam Drina kuci, novi dan se sprema
sve je kao nekad, pjevaju slavuji
samo tebe draga na Bikavcu nema
ostade mi samo tuzna uspomena
