NOTE
LYRICS
Devojka se Suncu protivila:
– Sunce jarko, lepša sam od tebe,
i od tebe i od brata tvoga,
brata tvoga, Meseca sjajnoga,
od sestrice, zvezde pre’odnice.
Sunce jarko Bogu tužbu dalo:
– Što ću, Bože, s prokletom devojkom?
A Bog Suncu tako govorio:
– Lako ćemo s prokletom devojkom.
Ti zasijaj, preplani joj lice,
a ja ću joj (h)udu sreću dati:
‘udu sreću, sve strane devere,
zlu svekrvu, a svekra gorega,
neka znade kom’ se protivila.
