Spavaj, spavaj ti

uz vodu i prugu
cvetaju makovi
jedna stara majka
lik sina, junaka
nosi jos u zenici
Ref. 2x
Majka sina, a ja brata
cuvamo u zenici
ne da suza sva od zlata
da se oko osusi
Na toplom jugu
ne znaju za drugu
vec za pesmu radosti
ja te molim brate
dok bolujem za te
tu mi pesmu oprosti
Ref. 2x
