Balkanska dusa
Zoran Kalezic · Other Songs - Zoran Kalezic
dok je padala kisa i besnela oluja
nas'o sam mir u prokletstvu svom
kraj luga raspevanih slavuja
Ref. 2x
A sta sam trazio s tobom
na vrata pakla us'o
zar kafanski zivot da zivim
ti prokleta balkanska duso
Zakleo sam se pred Bogom
zapalio svecu u svetom manastiru
i nekako se vratio sebi
sebi i zemaljskom miru
Ref. 2x
Necu vise da zalim
zaboravicu tebe i sve sto sam hteo
goreo sam i izgoreo
i ne volim ko sto sam voleo
Ref. 2x
