Tebi, majko, misli lete

Tebi, majko, misli lete
preko polja i planina
iz daleka primi pozdrav
od jedinog svoga sina

U tudjini ja sam sada
daljina nas rastavila
da li cu te ikad vise
ja vidjeti, majko mila

Zaboravit nikad necu
tvoje oci blage, mile
i rucice, majko, tvoje
koje su me odhranile

Tebi, majko, misli lete
