Ustaj sine, ustaj rano moja

Stara majka svoga sina budi
Ustaj sine ustaj rado moja
Danas tebe zeni majka tvoja
Ref.
Na kapiji venac od brsljana
Savio se do pola sokaka
Radosnice suze majka krije
Niko od nje sad srecniji nije
Danas sine moj zumbule beli
Tebi majka prva srecu zeli
Da te stara prva cvecem kiti
Nikad majci lepsi neces biti
Ref.
Ustaj sine svatovi ce doci
Sa tobom ce po devojku poci
Davnu zelju stara majka ima
Da zagrli i snaju i sina
Ref.
Ustaj sine, ustaj rano moja
