Odvukla mi dusu preko jezera

Odvukla mi dusu
preko jezera
i ja ostah sam
na onoj strani

A ja stranu nemam
a nemam ni branu
da me brani od poroka
od zivota moga

Ref. 2x
Miris cvetnih polja
njena kosa plava
moje ludo srce
to je sve sto znam

To je bila ona
devojka od zlata
nestala je tiho
sad nestajem ja

Gde se sada
iz mog oka skrila
da l' je vila
il' se izgubila

Po jezeru kapi
kao moje suze
kao duga u tri boje
gde si zlato moje

Ref.

Odvukla mi dusu preko jezera
