Nocna Mora

Nihad Alibegovic · Other Songs - Nihad Alibegovic

Kada nekog iskreno volis
oko tebe sve je raj
ali dobro nema uvijek
nema dobar kraj

Kad pomislim evo zore
evo zore bijeli dan
ali sta vrijedi kad ovakav
ja nikome ne trebam

Volim te
volim te kao lud
volim te
iako znam da je uzalud

Ref.
Dabogda ti nocna mora
bio ja k'o meni ti
dabogda te na ulici
i cigani zalili

Da i tebi k'o i meni
prazna casa bude drug
da se oko tvoje kuce
okreces k'o ja u krug

Volim te
volim te kao lud
volim te
iako znam da je

Nocna Mora

Nihad Alibegović's 'Nocna Mora' stands as a defining track within the Yugoslav folk revival movement of the late 1990s. Recorded during a period when traditional Balkan melodies were being reimagined with modern production, the song exemplifies the genre's characteristic blend of acoustic instrumentation and emotive vocals. As one of Alibegović's most recognized compositions, it captures the melancholic essence of the region's musical heritage while appealing to a broader contemporary audience. The recording helped solidify his reputation as a key figure in preserving and popularizing the cultural sounds of the former Yugoslavia, influencing subsequent generations of folk artists who sought to honor their roots through authentic yet accessible arrangements.
