This track is notable for its effects. It begins with a sample of the Reel 2 Real song "I Like To Move It" and ends with the sounds of gunshots and a woman breathing heavily. A vocal effect is applied to Neđo, which doubles his voice a major third in either direction. Parts of the song are also rapped rather than sung, similar to "[[Srbi supermeni]]". The motif used during the beginning of the song and transitions from chorus to the next verse is also heard in the [[Baja Mali Knindža]] song, "[[Pravoslavac]]". Both songs were arranged by this album's arranger, Goran Radinović. | This track is notable for its effects.

The narrator tells Hanuma to lie to a relative that her stomach is big because she ate a lot of bananas, and urges her that no one should know that the child is a "Vlach". Originally referring to the Serbs who inhabited the Dalmatian region, it is used by Muslims to refer to Serbs in a derogatory manner in the present day.<ref>Srdja Trifković (2010).

The first two stanzas "Zakon o tvojoj vjeri islamu/Zakon o mome pravoslavlju" gives contrast to both characters as they are of different faiths with the subsequent stanzas having the characters fight on a metaphorical battlefield and the verses describing said fight. | ||

The use of "prsa u prsa" in the song's chorus may have a double meaning as "prsa u prsa" is the Serb equivalent to the English phrase "hand-to-hand" (as in "hand-to-hand" combat).

Furthermore the stanza that precedes the mention of the phrase, "Tako mi moga časnoga krsta" (translated as "on my honorable cross") plays into this interpretation as based on the way it is worded, the speaker's "cross" is a way to figuratively refer to his genitalia. | ||
