Cekah te da dodjes

dok su vode tekle
bistre k'o od srebra
zubor da im pijes
Cekah te da dodjes
dok su rane pekle
pjesmom da ih vidjas
srcem da ih grijes
Ref.
Cekao sam plakao
svaki dan i noc
zelio te, vjerovao
da me volis, da ces doc
Cekah te da dodjes
dok su lomne grane
kitile se cvijecem
miris da im dises
Cekah te da suncem
obasjas mi dane
i da ih ljepotom
ljubavi pise
Ref.
Cekah te da dodjes
otkud zore jeze
zalud pita zate
ptice raspjevane
Na aleji staroj
k'o zgazene zvijezde
ostadose moje
oci izplakane
Ref.
