Crno vino, crne oci
Jasna Zlokic · Other Songs - Jasna Zlokic
da ga ikad zaboravim
neka barem uspomene
ostanu mi kad ostarim
Voljela sam, al' ne zalim
jos u meni vatre plamte
tuga dodje, tuga prodje
ljubavi se samo pamte
I opet bi srce dala
makar sutra zaplakala
Ref.
Crno vino, crne oci
a nad nama mjesecina
zaboravit necu moci
i da zivim sto godina
Crno vino, crne oci
takve vise ne postoje
zaboravit necu moci
jer si dusa duse moje
Ne pitajte sto me boli
sto mi nocas dusu slama
pustite me, ja vas molim
za suze sam kriva sama
I opet bi srce dala
makar sutra zaplakala
Ref. 2x
A memory worth risking heartbreak for
“Crno vino, crne oci” (“Black Wine, Black Eyes”) is built around a memory the narrator refuses to surrender. A night of wine, dark eyes and moonlight remains vivid despite the pain that follows; she says she would still give her heart again, even if it means crying tomorrow. The song’s romance is therefore neither regret-free nor cautious—it treats the possibility of hurt as part of having loved deeply.
The track appears on Jasna Zlokić’s 1993 album *Nisam ti se tugo nadala*. Published track credits list Bratislav Zlatanović and Tonči Huljić as songwriters, with Nikša Bratoš as producer. Zlokić’s melodic Croatian pop delivery gives the lyric a Mediterranean, late-night atmosphere, while the repeated title phrase works like a refrain that keeps returning the singer to the remembered scene.
No verified chart peak is available from the sources consulted. The song remains present in Zlokić’s recorded catalogue and lyric archives, but its appeal is best understood through its bittersweet stance: the narrator will not erase the memory just because it hurt. “Crno vino, crne oci” makes remembrance sound like a choice she is willing to make again.
