Oj ljubavi sreco moja
Ljuba Alicic · Other Songs - Ljuba Alicic
dok mi dusu ljubomora boli
a setih se da sam takav covek
onaj covek koji zna da voli
Ref.
Kad bih znao dal' me ljubis ti
najsrecniji tad bih bio ja
dodji, dodji bicu samo tvoj
oj ljubavi sreco moja
Nisi dosla one kisne noci
stajao sam pod prozorom tvojim
cekao sam a ti nisi dosla
ko da vise neces biti moja
Ref.
Ove noci mislis li na mene
pitas li se gde sam, kako mi je
kad bih znala za bol srca moga
dal' bi moje prosaptala ime
Ref.
Oj ljubavi sreco moja
