Oj, livado, uspomeno stara
Zoran Nikolic · Other Songs - Zoran Nikolic
Na livadu gde potok zubori
u mirisu pokraj starog bresta
dosao sam da se opet setim
mladih dana i tog starog mesta
Ref. 2x
Oj, livado, uspomeno stara
ti me secas draginih usana
ti si divna moja uspomena
mladost prodje, drage vise nema
Tu je prosla moja mladost rana
tu sam prvu ljubav osetio
jos se secam pastirice mlade
kada sam je zarko poljubio
Ref. 2x
Slusam potok, jos uvek zubori
dise miris plavog jorgovana
a livada kao da mi kaze
nema vise onih srecnih dana
Ref. 2x
u mirisu pokraj starog bresta
dosao sam da se opet setim
mladih dana i tog starog mesta

Oj, livado, uspomeno stara

Tu je prosla moja mladost rana

jos se secam pastirice mlade
kada sam je zarko poljubio
