Sarajevo, grade moj
njoj sam dao zivot svoj
pozdravi mi majku staru
lijepu Azru u beharu

Sarajevo, Sarajevo
seher Bosno, volim te
lijepa Azro, lijepa Azro
svud po svijetu trazim te
Nije meni, grade moj
sto sam dao zivot njoj
vec sto sanjam svjetla tvoja
Sarajevo, sreco moja
Ref. 2x
Tuzan sam ti, grade moj
kao onaj behar tvoj
i dok tvoje grane lome
jos si drazi srcu mome
