Neka trave zamirisu

Kada tebe pored mene nema
potekla bi voda iz kamena
bor zeleni ne bi zelenio
a i sneg bi boju promenio

Ref.
Neka trave zamirisu
nek oblaci skriju kisu
nek slavuji zapevaju
kad sam u tvom zagrljaju

Kad osetim vrele usne tvoje
duga nebom tad prosipa
boje nocu sunce zracima bi sjalo
uvelo bi cvece procvetalo

Kad te nema zeljo moja
ziva jutra su mi sumorna i siva
ko ptica sam polomljenih krila
kao gora bez svog zelenila

Ref.
