Sesnaest crvenih ruza
Dusko Lokin · Other Songs - Dusko Lokin
kad smo djeca, duso, bili
igrali smo smijesne igre
sa izvora vodu pili
Mi zajedno nismo posli
svatko svojim putem plovi
u mrezama sto ih plete
svaki dijelic srece lovim
Ref.
Sesnaest crvenih ruza
tebi cu darovat ja
za svaku godinu jednu
za svaki poljubac dva
Sesnaest crvenih ruza
primit ces od mene ti
neka ti razbude noci
neka se ostvare sni
Sve je tada bilo lijepo
najljepse smo snove snili
i od prvih njeznih trava
k'o ptice smo gnijezdo svili
Ref. 2x
