Mlad cobane, kad u frulu sviras
da li pesmom ti mene dozivas
da l' si svoje pogubio stado
ili ti je tuzno srce mlado
Ako mene trazis, mlad cobane
stado cuvam sve od zore rane
slusam frulu, slusam zvuke njene
cekam tebe da dodjes do mene
Ako li si stado pogubio
nemaj brige, moj cobane mio
ti prosetaj do livade moje
tu ces naci belo stado svoje
Stada nasa spojila se sama
i mi cemo, dragi, jednog dana
neka stado pase na livadi
srecni cemo i mi biti mladi
da li pesmom ti mene dozivas
da l' si svoje pogubio stado
ili ti je tuzno srce mlado
Ako mene trazis, mlad cobane
stado cuvam sve od zore rane
slusam frulu, slusam zvuke njene
cekam tebe da dodjes do mene
Ako li si stado pogubio
nemaj brige, moj cobane mio
ti prosetaj do livade moje
tu ces naci belo stado svoje
Stada nasa spojila se sama
i mi cemo, dragi, jednog dana
neka stado pase na livadi
srecni cemo i mi biti mladi
Mlad cobane, kad u frulu sviras
