Zelena je trava
na otkosu pala
ovce je cuvala
devojka garava

Tu je tako mlada
zaspala kraj stada

Ref.
Seno koseno
devojce je proseno
sto dukata suva zlata
za to je potroseno

Al' nemirno stado
primaklo se kradom
pa rasturi seno
tom kosacu mladom

Cuj me bela Rado
cuvaj bolje stado

Ref.

Nemoj da se branis
ja ti nista necu
poljupcem cu samo
da naplatim stetu

Podji za me more
ukrasi mi dvore

Ref. 2x
