zasto srce nocas boli
zasto zbog tebe mre
ne pitaj me razlog tuzi, ne pitaj me
sklopi oci za me moli
sad kad ostavljam sve
Ref.
Ja odlazim, duso, a srce nije stina
ja odlazim, duso, i boli me daljina
zaboravit necu milovanja tvoja
hvala ti za srecu, hvala, duso moja
Ne pitaj me razlog tuzi, ne pitaj me
samo tebe srce voli
samo zbog tebe mre
ne pitaj me razlog tuzi, ne pitaj me
utjesi me sad u boli
sad kad ostavljam sve
Ref.
Hvala, duso moja
Oliver Dragojević's 'Hvala, duso moja' stands as a defining anthem of Yugoslav folk music, blending traditional Slavic melodies with a distinctively melancholic vocal style. Recorded during the late 1960s and early 1970s, the track exemplifies the genre's characteristic fusion of indigenous instruments and poetic storytelling. The song's enduring popularity stems from its emotional depth and its role in shaping the cultural identity of the region during a period of intense artistic expression. As a cornerstone of Dragojević's discography, it remains a staple in collections dedicated to Balkan folk traditions, celebrated for its raw authenticity and the artist's unique ability to convey complex feelings through music.
