Music and lyrics

Although the album uses a generic "narodna" credit for the lyricist, the song is an adapted version of the 1982 song "Dođi iz tuđine" which was a translated version of the Šaban Bajramović song "Geljan dade - Otišao si oče". The original song was a commentary on how a parent (most commonly the father) would emigrate to a foreign country for better economic opportunities, being absent from the household long-term to the point where it feels that they have forgotten their family.

This adapted version retains the melody of the lyrics, but would recontextualize the song. Instead of cursing America for taking away one's family member for better benefits and pay, the song curses America, Germany, and the Vatican for the grief they have caused to the Serbs.

Lyrics

Lyrics: gledam srpska groblja žene kako plaču svaka suza njihova daj mi snagu i ja ču da ja dignem ruku i nikad ne spustim dok ne zatrem tragove dušmanima pustim prokleta je Amerika, Nemačka i Vatikan iz grobova mučenika svanuče slobode dan koji jesi na nebesi, da li čuješ nas? da li čuješ ti što svesi, svojih srba glas? evo idu opet lomače da lože molimo se, molimo pomozi nam, Bože spasi nas od jada, od bola i rana šta su kome krivi, tvoji srbi sa balkana prokleta je Amerika, Nemačka i Vatikan iz grobova mučenika svanuče slobode dan koji jesi na nebesi, da li čuješ nas? da li čuješ ti što svesi, svojih srba glas? koji jesi na nebesi, da li čuješ nas? da li čuješ ti što svesi, svojih srba glas?

Lyrics (English): I see serbian graves Women how they are crying Every tear of theirs Gives me strength To raise my hand And to never take it down Until I erase the traces Of enemies left desolate Cursed is America, Germany and the Vatican Out of the graves of martyrs the day of freedom shines You who are in heaven, do You hear us? Do You hear the voice of Your Serbs? Here are the bonfires again to burn We pray, pray Help us, God Save us from misery, from pain and wounds What are they guilty of, Your Serbs from the Balkans? Cursed is America, Germany and the Vatican Out of the graves of Marytyrs the day of freedom shines You who are in heaven, do You hear us? Do You hear the voice of Your Serbs? You who are in heaven, do You hear us? Do You hear the voice of Your Serbs?
