from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Опет жеља дјевојчина
Language: Serbian (Српски) 
Тужна јадна, да сам вода ладна!
Ја би знала, гди би извирала:
Украј Саве, украј воде ладне,
Куд пролазе житарице лађе;
Да ја видим моје мило драго,
Цвати ли му ружа на корману,
Вене ли му каранфил у руци,
Што сам тужна у суботу брала,
У недељу моме драгу дала.
