From 1975 to 1976 Vajta was a vocalist for Bosnian (ex-Yugoslavia) rock band Teška industrija, who enjoyed great commercial success throughout the Balkan countries but later dissolved.
In 1976 Vajta left Teška industrija and started a successful career as a pop singer.
He became popular in the 1981 Eurovision Song Contest during which he represented Yugoslavia. He achieved 15th place for Yugoslavia with the song "Lejla", which became a hit and still is throughout the Balkan countries.
In early 2007, Vajta and Teška industrija has reunited with the release of a new album.

Vajta Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nikad te niko neće voljet′ k'o ja, nikada
Malo nam je trebalo znaj
Samo malo još jedan san
Za nas bi procvjetale ruže
Da si dočekala sa mnom dan
O samo da si ostala tu
Ali nisi željela to
Ali nisi željela to
Nikad te niko neće voljet' k′o ja, nikada
Nikad te niko neće voljet′ k'o ja, Lejla
Ptice bi nas pjesmom vodile znaj
Sunce bi nam obasjalo put
Za našu sreću i za tebe draga
Sačuvao sam ljubav svu
O samo da si ostala tu
Ali nisi željela to
Ali nisi željela to
Nikad te niko neće voljet′ k'o ja, nikada
Nikad te niko neće voljet′ k'o ja, Lejla
Nikad te niko neće voljet′ k'o ja, Lejla
The song Leila by Vajta is a beautiful and heartfelt ballad about a lost love. The first two lines of the song, "Nikad te niko neće voljet′ k'o ja, nikada" which in English means "No one will ever love you like I did, never" sets the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is expressing how he had so much love for this person that no one could ever match it. He laments the fact that they could've had so much more if she had stayed, and he wishes that they could've had a life together that was full of love, joy, and happiness.
The singer goes on to talk about how they could've had a beautiful life, where even the birds would sing them love songs and the sun would always shine on their path. He saved all his love for her, and it's clear that he still loves her deeply. However, she didn't want the same thing as him, and that's why they couldn't be together. The song ends with the repetition of the first two lines, emphasizing the singer's belief that no one will ever love her like he did.
Overall, Leila is a tender and moving song that captures the essence of lost love and the pain that comes with it. The singer expresses his feelings with great poignancy, and the melody perfectly complements the lyrics, creating a beautiful and unforgettable experience.

This is a great song. I was 13 when i heard it live on TV in Eurovision song contest. I have never forgot it , but i don't understand the text.
