"'''Sa Dinare podvikuje vila'''" (Serbian | "'''Sa Dinare podvikuje vila'''" (Serbian Cyrillic: "Са Динаре подвикује била", <small>lit.</small> "The Fairy Shouts From Dinara") is a song written and performed by prominent Serb war singer [[Baja Mali Knindža]]. The song is based on the death of Slavko Jankovic, a Chetnik machine gunner who died 27 November 1944 while fighting Partisan forces around Knin.<ref>Petar Krišović (15 February 1995).

== Lyrics:== | This track serves as a dramatic end to ''Idemo dalje'' and is based on a true event in World War 2. It tells the story of the news of Slavko Janković's death to the commander of his brigade, Marko Ćućuz. Marko "Markica" Ćućuz (mistranscribed as "Markića Čučuz" in some transcriptions online) was a member of the Chetnik Dinara Division and the commander of the Šator brigade of the "Gavrilo Princip" Bosnian Corps. He was stationed in Bosansko Grahovo. Peulja and Crni Lug are mentioned which are places within Bosansko Grahovo, though it is unknown if the historical Ćućuz was ever stationed in the latter. The line "sve do Dalmacije" in which the Dalmatia region is mentioned is in reference to the region where Dinara Division mainly operated in. | ||
The use of "ptića" rather than "ptica" emphasizes how devastating the loss of Janković is as the former is used to refer to a young bird or fledgling and can be used to refer to a young person and the latter is used as a general term for a bird.<ref>"[https://srpskivreme.com/vocabulary/%D0%BF%D1%82%D0%B8%D1%86%D0%B0-vs-%D0%BF%D1%82%D0%B8%D1%9B-ptica-vs-ptic-bird-vs-chick-in-serbian/ Птица vs Птић (Ptica vs Ptić) – Bird vs Chick in Serbian]". srpskivreme.com. Retrieved 7 April 2025.</ref> In the beginning of the following verse, the narrator says that there was no other machine gunner like him in any part of the region, which adds to this interpretation. To further set the tone, the song uses the 2/4 time signature that is typically used in marches. The use of brass as the lead instrument instead of the typical accordion further emphasizes this march theme and gives it a solemn tone to convey the feeling of Ćućuz mourning over his fallen comrade. | |||
