Bosno moja, majko moja

Milos Bojanic · Other Songs - Milos Bojanic

Dosao sam ovdje protiv svoje volje
tamo mi je brate po sto puta bolje
ovdje mi je hladno i kad sunce greje
tamo mi je toplo i kad snijeg veje

Ref.
Nema, nema para nit dolara
moju tugu da mi plati
Bosno moja, majko moja
ja zbog tebe patim

Tjelo mi je ovdje, dusa mi je tamo
kad bih mogo brate da te vidim samo
da obidjem oca gdje vjecno pociva
da te vidim majko dok si mi jos ziva

Ref.

Nocima te sanjam rodni kraju mijo
od sjecanja bjezim kad sam mali bio
odneo me zivot od kuce daleko
dal za mene brate tamo pita neko

Ref.
