Gornju Tuzlu, gornju Tuzlu
opasala guja, opasala guja
metla glavu, metla glavu
na Dzindic mahalu, na Dzindic mahalu

A repinu, a repinu trgla
na gradinu, na staru gradinu
zelen bore, zelen bore
na Dzindic mahali, na Dzindic mahali

Na tebicu, na tebicu
cardak naciniti, cardak naciniti
i na njemu, i na njemu
sjesti besjediti, sjesti besjediti

Gornju Tuzlu opasala guja
