Sestra mi se udaje
Ismet Krcic · Other Songs - Ismet Krcic
pa me zove da joj dodjem ja u svatove
Ej, ona me zove
ej, dodji u svatove
Ja joj brze odgovorih srecno vi bilo
pa i ako jos nijesam zeta vidio
Ej, srecno vi bilo
ej, srecno vi bilo
Sa zetom se kada dodjoh bratski izljubi
a sestra mi uplakana pade na grudi
Ej, suze radosne
ej, kvase obraze
Sve je proslo u veselju i kako valja
svatove je raspjevane zora zatekla
Ej, zete i sestro
ej, nek' je sa srecom
