Kad bi znala sta mi srcu znacis
Safet Isovic · Other Songs - Safet Isovic
da mi nebom, vedris i oblacis
bi li mi se smilovala
i uvjek mi suncem sjala
il' bi studen oblak bila
pa mi srce zaledila
Kad bi znala da bolujem s' jada
bi l' mi dosla s' ponudama, mlada
i pruzila kraj uzglavlja
sa usana kaplju zdravlja
ili bi mi otrov dala
pa se slatko nasmijala
Kad bi znala, zivota ti tvoga
da sam umro, zbog sevdaha svoga
bi l' ti reci, bijela vilo
makar malo, zao bilo
il' bi rekla, umro, ako
ko bi za njim jos zaplako
Kad bi znala šta mi srcu znači
