Kip slobode
Esad Plavi · Other Songs - Esad Plavi
na mome licu ostavi boru
a tuga ko lasta s proljecem dodje
u mislima s tobom docekam zoru
Ref.
I na vjetru i na kisi
kao kip slobode stojim
cist pred Bogom i pred tobom
ni smrti se ja ne bojim
Nit' pred Bogom
nit' pred tobom
nemam cega da se stidim
dok te volim ja i postojim
Pijanom lose pjesme dobro zvuce
i ja ih uvijek osmjehom placam
ko dijete sto majku za rukav vuce
uporno vrijeme unazad vracam
Ref.
Dok te volim ja i postojim
Ja bih umro da te ne volim
