Lepa Brena · Other Songs - Lepa Brena

Odakle si lijepa djevojko
ko ti rodi oko plavetno
ko ti dade kosu zlacanu
ko te stvori tako vatrenu

Ref. 2x
Oci su mi more jadransko
kose su mi klasje panonsko
setna mi je dusa slavenska
ja sam Jugoslovenka

Odakle si lijepa djevojko
gdje si rasla cvijece proljetno
gdje te grije sunce slobodno
kada pleses tako zanosno

Ref. 2x

Odakle si lijepa neznanko
gdje si krala sunca bijelilo
gdje si pila vino medeno
kada ljubis tako sladjano

Ref. 2x
