Cuvaj draga nasu cerku
Kemal Malovcic · Other Songs - Kemal Malovcic
Ti si bila bez zrca i duse
odvoji me od jedine cerke
ti odvede dijete malo
nije znala ni zbogom da kaze
Ref. 2x
Cuvaj draga nasu cerku
poljubi je mjesto mene
jer je ona sad siroce
oca nema pored sebe
Tebi draga nece biti lako
cerka raste i pita za oca
ti istinu neces da joj kazes
sto je bilo za sve ti si kriva
Ref. 2x
Kada cerka za udaju bude
i kad pita, gde je moj tata
da li ce ti srce izdrzati
moras tada bolno zaplakati
