Moja braca tamburasi
Esad Plavi · Other Songs - Esad Plavi
sebe lazem ako kazem
da joj zelim samo srecu
dok iz oka suze krecu
Izaslo na svijetlost dana
to sto se od mene krilo
prvi uvek zadnji sazna
prosto joj od mene bilo
Ref. 2x
Ja nocas castim cijelu kafanu
ona ce biti u svakoj casi
svadbeni poklon neka joj budu
moja braca tamburasi
Sve ce ovo jednom proci
nit' se zalim nit' se hvalim
da na ruci nosim zlato
nije mi od Boga dato
Ni svatovi moji nece
do oltara da je prate
hej sviraci, sto ste stali
moju pjesmu dobro znate
Ref. 2x
