Svatovi
Halid Beslic · Other Songs - Halid Beslic
svatovi dosli pred avliju
svi redom majko pjevaju
dusu mi jadnu diraju
Ref.
Prokleti bili svatovi
sto ste me rano budili
zasto ste poslednju
nadu u meni ubili
Rekla je da cu plakati
da ce se za drugog udati
kad nista nisam slutio
svatove njene sam vidio
Samo sam tuzno gledao
sudbini srce predao
al suzu nisam pustio
jer sam je mnogo volio
