Disperadun

bez iceg san i drscen cilin tilon
bez iceg san
ol' upicu ol' u jicu
gladan, zedan gasin svicu
ja disperan san svitu
Bez iceg san na ovon skrtonpoju
bez iceg san cilu san stuka voju
bez iceg san o vaporu i o moru
mislin dok me mater budi
ja disperan san judi
Ref.
Bez tebe san
to je od svega gore
bez tebe san
bez sveg se jos i more
bez tebe san
ka bez sidra i bez jidra
Jer bez onog ca si dala
ne more se, ne more se
ne more se, mala
jer bez onog ca si dala
ja disperan san, mala
