Tu je moj dom (duet Bepo Matesic)
Mladen Grdovic · Other Songs - Mladen Grdovic
i sedam put i svit u krug
a samo sam jedino zna
nema do mog Jadrana
prosa sam dobra i zla
evo, moji, vrati sam se ja
Ref.
Tu je moj dom, tu je ostalo sve
u kuci kamenoj moje matere
tu je moj dom, tu je u dusi moj mir
u kuci kamenoj ja cu ostati
Prosa sam nevere sve
i uvik tija vratit' se
ka nasi stari nekada
i ja sam se caci zakleja
nema zivota za mene
bez moje Dalmacije
Ref.
Tu je moj dom
