Mala Semsa
Sinan Sakic · Other Songs - Sinan Sakic
kao slavuj iz behara
zbog njezine sevdalinke
pucale su case vinske
Mnoge kuce i ducani
i biseri i djerdani
otisli su na telala
prodala ih Semsa mala
Bacali joj zlato sjajno
za njezino grlo bajno
narukvice i prstenje
za raskosne ruke njene
Zene, majke i djevojke
prolile su suze gorke
propili se momci, ljudi
Semsa pjesmom sve zaludi
Prosli dani raspjevani
kao poljem konji vrani
nesta Semse, sejtan zene
umuknule pjesme njene
Otisla je bez pozdrava
niz drumove zaborava
bez djerdana i dukata
i bisera ispod vrata
