Sanjam majku, sanjam kucu staru
i drugove u mom rodnom kraju
mlad sam bio, kad sam otisao
u narucju majke, tiho sam plakao

Ref.
Listam knjigu, starih uspomena
vidim majku, sa stapom u ruci
pali lampu, gleda u daljinu
ne bil' sjenku ugledala sinu

Ti ostari mene cekajuci
ja oboli svijetom lutajuci
nemoj majko, vise cekat sina
sve sto lijepo bjese, uze mi tudjina

Ref.
