svako vece isli ti i ja
sta god rekla nemoj biti ljut
nek nam bude kao prvi put
Ref. 2x
Ti me cekaj, sigurno cu doci
jer mi tako trebas ove noci
ti me cekaj, ja cu doci tamo
jednom jos da te vidim samo
Ne brini se, nisam ista ja
sve sam prosla i sve vidjela
sada tebi predati se sm'jem
ovog puta s tobom ostajem

Ti me cekaj
Amela Zuković's 'Ti me cekaj' stands as a defining anthem of the Yugoslav folk revival, blending traditional acoustic instrumentation with modern vocal delivery. Released in the early 2000s, the track exemplifies the genre's characteristic fusion of Serbian and Croatian folk melodies with contemporary pop sensibilities. The song's enduring popularity stems from its emotive lyrics and Zuković's distinctive, powerful voice, which has become synonymous with the era's sound. Alongside other notable works like 'Zena bez imena' and 'Suze slane', 'Ti me cekaj' helped establish a new wave of female folk artists who revitalized regional traditions for a younger audience. Its widespread adoption in cultural events and media further cemented its status as a staple of the genre's catalog.
