Lyrics
Lyrics:
Na obali mutne reke
Те žubore hladni vali
Nemo stoji majka stara
I mrtvoga sina žali
Oj Dunave ponositi
O tako ti valа tvoga
Što sudbina da mi uzme
Mog Dragana jedinoga
Što sudbina da mi uzme
Moga sina jedinоga
Na jurišu junak pade
Na bojištu bitke ljute
Čvrsto držeć krstaš vojni
Ali mrtve usne ćute
Nemo huči Dunav reka
Nemo huče u ti vali
To da žali div junake
Pokraj Dalja što su pali
To da žali div junake
Za slobodu što su pali

Lyrics (English):
On the bank of the cloudy river
Those cold waves murmur
The old mother stands dejected
And mourns her dead son
Hey proud Danube
Oh, on your waves
Why must fate take from me
My Dragan
Why must fate take from me
My only son
On the charge, the hero fell
On the battlefield, fierce battles
The crusader holding strong
But dead lips are silent
The Danube river roars silently
Those waves roar mute
To mourn the heavenly heroes
That fell around Dalj
To mourn the heavenly heroes
That fell for freedom
