Ne smej se mesece

blagu njemu samom medj' zvezdama
a ja stojim pod prozorom tvojim
ti si meni i svetlo i tama
Ref.
Ne smej se mesece zbunjenosti mojoj
pozuri mangupe nekoj zvezdi svojoj
bez tebe cu lakse da se snadjem
kad u mraku dragom usne nadjem
Mirisu nocas bagremovi beli
lude zelje u srcu se gnezde
od tebe me samo korak deli
samo korak od jedine zvezde
Ref.
Nema te, dragi, a ja moram poci
uskoro ce sunce da se javi
bela zora gasi fenjer noci
zasvetlese biseri u travi
Ref.
