Na stolu pismo od majke
Saban Saulic · Other Songs - Saban Saulic
gledam sobu gde zivim
na stolu pismo od majke
pisano slovima krivim
Ref.
Ti si vec stara majko
duge su tvoje noci
i znam da niz put gledas
kada cu kuci doci
sestri se svadba sprema
a mene kuci nema
Gledam majcino pismo
i odgovor joj spremam
starice moja draga
ja ovde nikoga nemam
Ref.
Oprosti sejo mila
i neka te sreca prati
odlazi cesce majci
da stara sama ne pati
Ref.
