Lyrics

Lyrics:

Na obali reke, jednog mutnog dana,
Srbinova majka stoji uplakana
gleda mutne vale i proliva suze
pita hladnu reku što joj sina uze

Sećaš li se, Drino, na godinu ratnu
kad pogibe junak, za slobodu zlatnu
ustaške mu puške srce razniješe
a tvoji ga, reko, vali odniješe

Huči mutna reka, viju se oblaci,
majka stručak ruža u valove baci
nosi mutna reko, ružu utrganu
pa zakiti sinu grobnicu neznanu

Reko, mutna reko, mutna razlivena
ti si mome sinu grobnica ledena
kaži meni, kaži gde mi čedo spava
gde mi skrivaš, reko, sina Milovana
