Robinja
Halid Beslic · Other Songs - Halid Beslic
Ja k'o slavuj, ti k'o robinja
ja te zovem ti k'o pustinja
vjetrovi mi lice sibaju
do tebe mi duso ne daju
Ref.
Ko te cuva u tom haremu
ko ti sprema haljinu svilenu
zar da budes vjecno nesretna
meni si prva, a njemu posljednja
Cuvam pisma sto si pisala
u meni si druga imala
a sad skrivas suzu u oku
jer ne vidjas ljubav daleku
Ref.
Zbog cega si mlada uve'la
zbog koga si otrov popila
sta ce tebi platno svileno
kad ne ljubis svoje voljeno
