Dva jarana

Safet Isovic · Other Songs - Safet Isovic

Opet smo jarane posljendnji gosti
u staroj krcmi ti i ja
nek violina jecaj struna
bolnoj nam dusi utjehe da

Dok s'nama nocas tuguju sati
i bezbroj zelja u nama vri
ima li nade da nam se vrati
sanak sto davno snivasmo mi

U dugom nizu prolaze dani
mladosti nase blijedi sjaj
ko kasni mehlem na ljutoj rani
cigane druze pjesmu nam daj

On sa svojom ja sa svojom tugom
procicemo kroz svitanje sivo
al pamticu da sam sjednim drugom
izgubljenu ljubav oplakivo
