ala imas medne usne
ala ima bijeli ten
u tebe sam majke mi
smrtno zaljubljen

bas je steta, bas je steta
srca su nam zauzeta
oboje smo ljubav htjela
ali smo se kasno sreli

ala imas lijepe kose
ala imas mijo glas
s tobom bih se majke mi
mazijo veceras

bas je steta, bas je steta
srca su nam zauzeta
oboje smo ljubav htjela
ali smo se kasno sreli

ala imas divne oci
sjajne kao suncan dan
meni bi se majke mi
ostavrio s tobom san
