Sjecas li se Hanuma

Sjecas li se Hanuma
kad smo bili mladi
tad smo jedno drugom
ljubav obecali

Zaklesmo se na vjernost
davno je to bilo
od tada se Hanuma
vise ne vidjesmo

Ref. 2x
Haj, lijepa Hanuma
tebe volim, vjeruj mi
vec godinama

Danas ti je sesnaesti
draga rodjendan
sve ti lijepo u zivotu
srcem zelim ja

Znam da nosis feredzu
na svom bijelom licu
a rumene usnice
na mene se smiju

Ref. 2x

Oj Hanuma, Boga ti
tu feredzu skini
godinama zelim
lice da ti vidim

Skinula je feredzu
nasmijala mi se
ja se sagnem i poljubim
medene usnice

Ref. 2x
