Pozdravi je sunce milo

Kad odlazis sunce milo
ne ostavljaj mene sama
moja draga u daljini
ceka mene u suzama
moja draga u daljini
haj, ceka mene u suzama

Tuzne su joj oci bile
kada me je ispratila
i zauvijek nasa srca
daljina je rastavila
i zauvijek nasa srca
haj, daljina je rastavila

Pozdravi je sunce milo
kad milujes kose njene
i obrisi gorke suze
da joj lice ne uvene
i obrisi gorke suze
haj, da joj lice ne uvene

Haj, neka draga ceka mene
