Otvori se zemljo
Selma Bajrami · Other Songs - Selma Bajrami
onda se ljubav dogodila nama
al brzo je nasu srusio srecu
voljeti vise nikada necu
Ref. 2x
Otvori se zemljo da nestanem
bez njega vise da ne ustanem
otvori se zemljo i uzmi me
ako me nece, zivote i ne trebam te
Bio mi je drag, bila sam mu draga
od ljubavi nase vise ni traga
tuga me ubija samoca prijeti
ja cu bez njega umrijeti
Ref. 2x
