Otkud ti pravo

po mome srcu ruze tuge sadis
po kojem zakonu to meni sudis
kad sve uzimas, a nista ne nudis
Nemas ti prava da mi snove unistis
na mome nebu zvijezde nade gasis
nisi mi ti ni zrno srece donijela
da bi planinu od mene ponijela
A priznajem, bio sam kod ociju slijep
i nije mi padalo to na pamet
da sa mnom si samo iz koristi
bio sam lud od ljubavi
Ref. 2x
Nisi ti neko zbog
kog mi vrijedi umrijeti
niti poslednju suzu u bolu pustiti
nisi ti zena ta sto bi ruku pruzila
kad bi me ranjenog
na svom pragu vidjela
Nemas ti prava da mi snove unistis
na mome nebu zvijezde nade gasis
po kojem zakonu to meni sudis
kad sve uzimas, a nista ne nudis
