Procvetale moje bele ruze
moje bele ruze
procvetale, ali su mi tuzne
ali su mi tuzne

Ref.
Sto me dragi ostavio s tugom
i sto ode na vencanje s drugom

Jos se secam njegovog lika
njegovog lika
ode moja ljubav prevelika
ljubav prevelika

Ref.
Ode dragi i nema ga vise
ne dolazi ruze da mirise

U samoci prolaze mi noci
prolaze mi noci
dragi vise nikad nece doci
nikad nece doci

Ref. 2x
Da l' se seca da smo srecni bili
i zajedno ruze posadili
