Kol'ko kosta ova tudja zemlja

gde me ljudi znaju od rodjenja
i da vidim moju staru majku
svoga oca, dobrog prijatelja
Ref.
Kol'ko kosta ova tudja zemlja
da bih mogo suzama da platim
sam u sobi u dalekom svetu
oce, majko, ja za vama patim
Kad sam poso sve je lepo bilo
ja sam hteo brzo da se vratim
mnogo toga desilo se tada
dali cu vas videti ikada
Misle ljudi da sam ovde srecan
da sam s' njima naviko da zivim
ali samo u svom rodnom selu
majko, oce, mogu da se smirim
Kol'ko kosta ova tudja zemlja
