Noc je pala a ti zaspala
bez poljubca mog
hej, tudjino, hej, sudbino
ubio te Bog

Zora sjala a ti ustala
bez poljubca mog
hej, tudjino, hej, sudbino
ubio te Bog

Ruza cvala a ti plakala
bez poljubca mog
hej, tudjino, hej, sudbino
ubio te Bog

Zvezda sjala a ti sanjala
da se sreca vratila
hej, tudjino, hej, sudbino
pusta ostala

Hej, tudjino, hej, sudbino
