Svi pitaju mene, kazi, kol'ko treba
za zelene oci i zlata i srebra
a za plave kose dukate mi nose

Ref.
Plava ciganka, eto to sam ja
kazu da sam lepa, najlepsa
plava ciganka, eto to sam ja
mnogima sam zelja pusta ostala

Ljubili bi mnogi medne usne moje
zavele ih ludo kose plave boje
pa mi nude zato i srebro i zlato

Ref.

Moje plave kose i zelene oci
da osvoje lako nikad nece moci
nije srce moje, nije bilo koje

Ref.
