Sto odreza pletenice, Lelo
sto ostavi nase malo selo
nema stada, ni tebe kraj puta
ne cuje se medenica zuta

Ref.
Oj, Lelo, Lelo
gde je tvoje stado belo
svi u selu misle na te
vrati nam se, cekamo te

Livada je ponovo zelena
samo tebe na njoj vise nema
drugarice pesme ti pevaju
i na tvoju kucu pogledaju

Ref.

Pred ocima jos je slika tvoja
jos uvek si, Lelo, ljubav moja
leto prodje i jesen se sprema
tesko mi je bez tebe, voljena

Ref.
