Severina · Other Songs - Severina

Morem plovi ladja puna zena
na vidiku nigdje muska nema
trista zena, trista teskih muka
Boze mili, gdje je prva luka

Plovi ladja valovi je njisu
duga pisma tuzne zene pisu
iza njih je sedam oceana
a na srcu sedam rana

Ref.
Gdje je sada mornarica mlada
kada tone ladja najsladja
da je spasi i da pozar gasi
ajme, ladja se zapalila
