<poem lang="en"> | <poem lang="en"> | ||
My grandfather's, my grandfather's beard goes down to his waist, | |||
his hair, his hair is like the sea's waves | |||
My old grandfather, he looked like a force, | |||
and today he is a fierce snake, his cockade shines | |||
On him, on him are ten fierce wounds, | |||
an old chetnik, an old chetnik eager for battle | |||
My old grandfather, he looked like a force, | |||
and today he is a fierce snake, his cockade shines | |||
They say Dinara hid him, | |||
he swore, he swore by Đujić and Draža | |||
My old grandfather, he looked like a force, | |||
and today he is a fierce snake, his cockade shines | |||
