Nemoj, nemoj draga

Nemoj, nemoj draga da ti dusa pati
oprosti nikada necu biti tvoj
uzmi sve sto zelis, sve cu tebi dati
al' srce ne mogu, dao sam ga njoj

Dok milujem divnu svilu tvoje kose
ja proklinjem sebe i sudbinu tu
mene grijesne misli drugoj zeni nose
tebe grlim, ljubim a mislim na nju

Ti mi usne nudis pruzas ruke bijele
u ocima tvojim zarko sunce sja
ja ispijam zeljno tvoje usne vrele
a dusa mi sanja njena oka dva
