Hej cigani, pjevajte mi
ona sa mnom vise nije
otisla je s nekim drugim
casu srece da ispije

Ref.
Pjevajte mi tuzne pjesme
pjevajte mi samo jace
da ne cuju prijatelji
kako moje srce place

Nek' zacvili violina
neka srce nocas place
pjevajte mi, ja vas molim
pjevajte mi samo jace

Ref.

Ja ne zelim novu srecu
za mene je tuzno sutra
sta mi vrijedi ovaj zivot
kada bez nje cekam jutra

Ref.

Pjevajte mi tuzne pjesme

Nihad Alibegović's 'Pjevajte mi tuzne pjesme' stands as a defining anthem of Yugoslav folk music, capturing the melancholic spirit of the region through traditional instrumentation and emotive vocals. The track exemplifies the genre's characteristic blend of acoustic guitar, accordion, and deep, resonant singing that has become synonymous with the Balkan sound. Released during a period where this style reached its zenith in popularity, the song reflects the cultural identity and emotional depth of the former Yugoslavia. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to evoke nostalgia and sorrow without relying on specific lyrical narratives, allowing listeners to project their own memories onto the haunting melody. As a staple of Alibegović's discography, it remains a powerful representation of the era's musical heritage.
