Svako ima svoje zelje

zelju pomislim
da ti budes ljubav moja
da te osvojim
Ref. 2x
Svako ima svoje zelje
moja zelja, to si ti
a zvezda ce padalica
zelju da mi ispuni
Kada srce ljubav sanja
uvek pozelim
da u moje snove dodjes
da te osetim

Svako ima svoje zelje
A falling star gives the narrator a brief chance to make a wish, and he uses it for one uncomplicated purpose: to win the person he loves. The song returns to that image twice, first imagining a romance in waking life and then asking the beloved to appear in his dreams. The repeated refrain turns the private wish into a small ritual, one that feels hopeful precisely because the singer cannot control whether it comes true.
There is little conflict in the lyric; its emotional world is built from anticipation rather than heartbreak. That makes the song a gentle counterpoint to more troubled love songs in the regional repertoire. The star is not a magical guarantee but a symbol of desire projected into the sky, a way to voice what the narrator is not yet ready to say directly to the beloved.
There is a concrete release context here, though not a reliable measure of popularity: It is listed as a 2015-08-21 single titled *Život me je naučio svemu*, issued by Studio MMI; that verifies a release context, not the scale of its reach. I could not verify a dependable chart position or an independent review of this specific recording, so its wider reception remains unquantified rather than something to infer from its lyrics.
Lazar Petrović’s lyric uses the accessible language of a folk-pop serenade: concise verses, repeated wishes and a chorus designed to return quickly. No verified song-specific review or broader reception record was located. Its charm is in the modest scale of the fantasy. The singer does not ask for wealth, status or a perfect future; he wants the person he loves to step into his life, and trusts the falling star with the rest.
