Ustani sestro

Tako si zeljela
srce si slusala
sad onog' kog'
najvise volis
moras da zaboravis

Htijela si najbolje
dogodilo se najgore
sad onog' kog'
najvise volis
moras da zaboravis

A dala bi sve
sad bi dala
da je samo san

A zvijezde su
nestale davno
svanuo je dan

Ref.
Ustani, ustani, sejo
ustani, sestrice moja
hajd' probudi se

Ustani, najdraze moje
i znaj, kad najvise ljubis
onda izgubis

Htijela si najbolje
dogodilo se najgore
sad onog' kog'
najvise volis
moras da zaboravis

A dala bi sve
sad bi dala
da je samo san

A zvijezde su
nestale davno
svanuo je dan

Ref. 2x
