NOTE

LYRICS

Ој, ti, seko ргеко puta,
što si tako zabrinuta?
Zabrinuta, zamišljena,
valjda što si isprošena?

Ne plaši se, ne straši se,
svake brige okani se.
Pa poskoči, malo cupni,
a nožicom malo lupni.

Braca će te pohvaliti,
pred svatovi izjaviti:
da si lepa, da si mila,
da si moja draga bila.

Da si moja draga bila,
mene mlada prevarila,
u drugog se zaljubila,
pa me onda ostavila.
