ispracao leta
zivot nas je odneo
na dve strane sveta
Nisam znao ko je kriv
pa krivih sve redom
zakleo se, naci cu je
makar s' kosom sedom
Ref.
Idu dani majko moja
a od nje ni pismo
umrecu od tuge
sto zajedno nismo
Zelis svadbu moju
al' pusta ti zelja
nema nista majko
od tvoga veselja
Mislio sam vreme ce
nju da mi donese
godinama pisao pisma
bez adrese
Ref. 2x
