Hej, kad bih jos jednom se rodila
sve za sobom bih spalila
zauvijek uz tebe ostala
kriva je sudbina

Rasiri krila, sivi sokole
tamo daleko moje su misli ostale
ti me ponesi na krilu svome nesretnu
tamo da umrem, tamo gdje moj je dom
sivi sokole

Hej, Boze, nocas klanjam ti
ti me mozes razumijeti
grijesnoj grijehe oprostiti
suze skloniti
