Kad bih im'o sume i livade

zlatom pune u raskosi grade
ja bih opet vuk siromah bio
drugo zlato i raskos zelio
Ref.
Zlato koje iz ociju sija
raskos meka koja srcu prija
trazio bih tebe u nocima
da mi gasis tugu u ocima
Ja bih dao sume i livade
zlatom pune u raskosi grade
ja bih, sreco, sve na svetu dao
samo kad bih tebe milovao
Ref.
Sta ce meni u dane jesenje
srebro, zlato i drago kamenje
kad se lisce na granama zuti
mladost preti da ce uvenuti
Ref.
