Usne boje vina
Boban Rajovic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hej, ljepotice
glavu gore gledaj pravo
u oblake, u simsire
ne gledaj u mene samo

Gdje bas mene crnog nadje
da ti zdravu pamet solim
i potopim tvoje ladje
kad ti nocas ne odolim

Ref.
Usne, usne boje vina
ostace ti bez karmina
oci ostace bez suza
bez dugmeta bijela bluza

Usne, usne boje vina
ostace ti bez karmina
uvenuces k'o mimoza
otrovna je moja loza
takva ti je takva moja loza

Hej, djevojcice
hajde skini osmijeh s lica
o meni ti ne sanjaj
bicu tvoja nesanica

Gdje bas mene crnog nadje
da ti zdravu pamet solim
i potopim tvoje ladje
kad ti nocas ne odolim

Overall Meaning

The song "Usne Boje Vina" by BOBAN RAJOVIĆ is an interesting interpretation of a man's passion and desire for a woman. In the opening lines, he asks the beautiful woman to look up at the sky, in the clouds and shrubs as opposed to staring just at him. The scenario then changes to the man questioning why of all people he found her. Consequently, he feels the need to take control of her life, drown her ships, and make her lose her senses.


The chorus, Usne boje vina, roughly translates to "Lips of wine color" metaphorically refers to the physical attraction he has to her lips that he yearns to touch. The obsession is so intense that he warns her that her lips will remain a memory without lipstick, and her eyes will remain dry without tears. The white blouse symbolism is in line with the whole metaphor o the singer steering the ship of their relationship.


The second stanza of the song is a direct plea to the woman, asking her not to dream of him and implying that he is bad news for her. The song is a peculiar illustration of the vocal prowess of BOBAN RAJOVIĆ in delivering Balkan style music, and it's still considered one of the most popular songs in the Serbian music scene.

How to receive God’s forgiveness.

Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son [Jesus Christ], that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” – Matthew 11:28-29

“He that believes on the Son has everlasting life: and he that believes not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God stays on him.” – John 3:36

Call upon the name of Jesus

“And it shall come to pass, that whoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” – Acts 2:21

“…Now is the day of salvation.” – 2 Corinthians 6:2

Confess Jesus as your Savior

“That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart man believes to righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made to salvation.” – Romans 10:9-10

Lay aside all wickedness

“So get rid of all immoral behavior and all the wicked things you do. Humbly accept the word that God has placed in you. This word can save you.” – James 1:21
