Vatra i vino

Nino · Other Songs - Nino

Molio sam Boga uvek
jednom da mi svane
a Bog mi dade zenu
da me rani i nestane

Ref.
Sad za stolom u kafani
prazne case brojim
dok od vatre i od vina
jednom ne zagorim

Na izmoni niso vori
stofozmo fali naftalo
i de forke io vari
ke trokjeno to cigano

Meranihta sto sfiri
vgazis sta onira mu
ine diskoli i keri
kisje makri amu

Sada opet Boga molim
lek da nadje meni
neko vino sto sve leci
sto nju moze da zameni

Ref.
