Kafana

grad potopile
puce veza, sto mi uze
tolike godine
Stajala sam uplakana
i cula muziku
prazan sto k'o porucen
za mene cekao me je u dnu
(2x)
Ref. 2x
Sta ce zena sama u kafani
pitaju se svi
sta vas briga isti smo pred Bogom
svi ranjeni u ljubavi
U kafani k'o u paklu
svuda bol i dim
zar je ovo Boze nacin
da ga zaboravim
Pratili me sve do stola
muski pogledi
u zemlju sam propala od stida
sta mi covek uradi

The song reflects the cultural heritage of the region, often performed at social events and celebrations where communal singing and storytelling were central. Radic's rendition remains a celebrated example of the era's folk revival, showcasing her ability to preserve and transmit the musical traditions of her homeland through powerful, unadorned performance.
