usne k'o ruzice dv'je
nosim ti veru od zlata
na ruci da nosis je
Opijas me k'o vino ti
na nebu mlad mjesec nad nama bdi'
ne idi, ne – tu kraj mene spi
u njedru tvome su najsladji sni
Ref.
Jano, oj Janice
srca mog kraljice
ljubim ti obraze
rujne k'o jabuke
Cvijete moj mislis li na me
dok kosu rasplices ti
brojis li sate i dane
kada moja ces postati
Opijas me k'o vino ti
na nebu mlad mjesec nad nama bdi'
ne idi, ne – tu kraj mene spi
u njedru tvome su najsladji sni
Ref. 2x
