Prvog novembra ostavih je ja
majko, da li je jadna patila
majko, da li je jadna patila
cekao sam ja njezin rodni dan
majko, zasto me nije cekala
majko, zasto me nije cekala

Ref.
Budio, budio, nisam je probudio
ako si me voljela
sto me nisi povela
nisam je probudio

Donio sam ja sedam ljiljana
majko, da li znas, jos sam sam
majko, da li znas, jos sam sam
spava malena, slatka glavica
majko, pokrila mi je travica
majko, pokrila mi je travica

Ref.
