Seherzada
Ljuba Alicic · Other Songs - Ljuba Alicic
otisla je od sultana
niz carsiju bez nanula
Seherzada lepa bula
Ref. 2x
Seherzada, Seherzada
ti si uzrok mojih jada
moras jednom, to da shvatis
dajem carstvo da se vratis
Sultan salje svoje sluge
da je nadju al' nje nema
zbog lepote tog andjela
ostavio mnogo zena
Ref. 2x
Jednog dana ona dodje
pred sultana gordo stade
volim drugog ubijte me
oprostaj joj sultan dade
Ref. 2x
