- Ozgora idat Turcite,
- mladi Ljubanki teraat,
- napred mi odi Todorka.
- Todorke mlada nevesto,
- ostavi si go deteto
- na tie ravni ledini
- na tie tenki kamenja.
- Todorka poču turčinot
- si go ostavi deteto
- na tie ravni ledini.
- Mi pominal ovčarče
- pa si go zema deteto,
- pa si go glavil sluginče
- kaj edna mlada vdovica.
- kaj toj mi Osman Beg.
- Devet mi godidi sluguval,
- liceto ne i go videl
- na taa mlada vdovica.
- Poduvnal veter gornjaneni
- i go duvnal feredžeto,
- liceto i se otkrilo,
- liceto na vdovicata.
- I togaš si ovčarče zagrabil,
- majčice mila majčice,
- deka sisluguvaše devet godini
- vo taa crna zandana.
- Ah milo moje detence,
- deka rasteše devet godini
- vo tie crni zandani.
- Togaš si majka zagrnal,
- zaklal si turčin na guša
- i kuḱa si napravil
- so tie pari od sluguvanje
