Od sabaha do jacije

k'o bosanske vode hladne
Sto zubore kroz zumbule
ja ne spavam u sabahe
zbog ljepote lijepe Zumre

Ref. 2x
Od sabaha, do jacije
na nju mislim, tesko mi je
majko mila dusu spasi
na selamet izvedi je
Sve putnike pitao sam za nju
sto svuda po svijetu hode
Nit' vidjese, nit' sretose
zar ja nemam svoju srecu
zar svatove imat' necu
(2x)
Ref. 2x
