Imenjak
Kemal Malovcic · Other Songs - Kemal Malovcic
prije mnogo godina
na ulici danas sretoh
kako seta sina
Pozdravih je pa mi toplo
oko srca moga
kad mi rece, hajd', upoznaj
imenjaka svoga
Ref.
Udala se za drugog, al' nije stvar mala
to sto svom je sinu moje ime dala
voljela me, znaci, i danas voli me
jer mi stoput na dan izgovori ime
Kroz glavu mi proslost cijela
prolazi u jednom trenu
odlaskom sam svojim
ranio tu zenu
Jos zbog mene ona pati
i boli je poraz
ime njenog sina
najbolji je dokaz
Ref.
