u jedno srce tuga i radost je stala
ti neznas kako je zivot lep i ruzan
Ildo moja, devojcice mala
Ref.
Kako si lepa, ljubim te nezno
na tvoje lice pada moja sjena
danas si devojka sto bezbrizno zivi
a sutra mozda nesrecna zena
Nekad bi hteo pobeci nekud
al imam snage sobom gospodarim
u meni kuca srce malog decaka
iako osecam da polako starim
Ref.
Sve moje pesme poklanjam tebi
slusaces ih s tugom, uplakana lica
ti neznas ko te je volio od srca
reci im slobodno covek lutalica
Ref.
