ja ti pjevam ljepotom me mamis
mnogo svijeta ja sam proso
ljepsi seher nigdje nisam naso
Ref.
Bosna pjeva i pjevace
sevdah bila i ostace
od pjesme se sve opija
to je pjesma starih aksamlija
Sarajevo gnijezdo si sevdaha
srce Bosne, srce Bosne kucas bez predeha
Miljacka ti na grudima lezi
Bascarsija ponos Sarajlija
Ref.
Kosevo te zelenilom krasi
Perivoji i mnogi cvijetnjaci
i djevojke kao gorske vile
s ljepotom su Bosnu zacinile
Ref.
