Dodji da mi ruke grejes

pahulje bele prekriju breg
i kad selom zavlada tama
pred kucom tebe cekacu sama
Ref. 2x
Dodji da mi ruke grejes
dodji da se sa mnom smejes
u nocima dugim belim
da sa tobom srecu delim
Zimske su noci preduge sve
ne daj da sama ja sanjam sne
bice mi hladno ljubavi moja
ako me ljubav ne greje tvoja
Ref. 2x
Pozuri, dodji cekam te ja
nek' ljubav greje za srca dva
i ljubi nezno premilo moje
zimske su noci lepse u dvoje
Ref. 2x
