<poem lang="en"> | <poem lang="en"> | ||
In the land where I was born | |||
Now some uniforms are worn | |||
My people have long been in battle | |||
My brother's head is in a bag | |||
Stop, Pashas and Ustashas | |||
Don't touch, that is ours | |||
In us is a lion's heart | |||
We defend Orthodoxy | |||
In Kupres, bloody are the dawns | |||
Čaprazlije burns in flames | |||
Every day grenades fall | |||
How are you, my dear brother | |||
Stop, Pashas and Ustashas | |||
Don't touch, that is ours | |||
In us is a lion's heart | |||
We defend Orthodoxy | |||
Since God created people | |||
Others always come to judge us | |||
Someone always meddles with a Serb | |||
There is no more peace in Bosnia | |||
Stop, Pashas and Ustashas | |||
Don't touch, that is ours | |||
In us is a lion's heart | |||
We defend Orthodoxy | |||
