O jeseni tugo moja

O jeseni tugo moja
kisna i oblacna
i danas je moja draga
od zalosti placna

Znam i danas k'o i juce
cekas da l' cu doci
ali vise ja sokakom
tvojim necu proci

Nit' cu proci, nit' cu doci
tebi ikad vise
sto je bilo medju nama
zaborav nek' brise

Srce dragoj pripalo je
oprosti Jasmina
sada volim moju Almu
i nasega sina

O jeseni tugo moja
