Osedlacu svoga vranog zdrepca

prospi zrake na sve cetir' strane
i obasjaj moje selo malo
gde sam mladjan provodio dane
i obasjaj ljubicevo malo
gde sam mladjan provodio dane
Ja daleko zivim od moga kraja
i nocima sanjam konje vrane
kako jure ispod starih breza
sto ostase od Milosa kneza
Sacekacu opet one dane
da mi sunce kraj Morave grane
osedlacu svoga vranog zdrepca
pa cu jahat' oko Pozarevca
I pevacu onu pesmu stalno, oj Moravo
moje selo ravno
Osedlacu svoga vranog zdrepca
