Kad cu opet doc da te vidin ja
Kad cu opet doc da te jubin ja
Tek sad vidin sta mi znaci, Vela Luka, more, ti
Uspomene ce mi samo ostati
Za Markite i zale, za nas Osjak i vale
Velu Luku mala ne zaboravi.

Doc cu opet draga, budi sa mnom sretna ti
Znaj da ce nas nasa prosla ljubav cekati
Kad ja vidin modro more i zelene brodove
Zakantat cu ovu pismu za tebe
Za Markite i zale, za nas Osjak i vale
Velu Luku mala ne zaboravi.
