Golubica

Mahir Burekovic · Other Songs - Mahir Burekovic

Poleti, golube bijeli
odnesi pismo ljubavi
moja su krila slomljena
ne mogu, ne mogu letjeti

Ref. 2x
Poljubi je mjesto mene
poljubi je, golube
golubica moja
da mi tuzna ne bude

Kad sletis na njeno rame
odmori krila svoja
topli joj pozdrav ponesi
bila je ljubav moja

Ref. 2x
