The song would be referenced in "[[Ćuti, ćuti ujko]]", but would be referred to as "Stiže vojvoda".

In the dusty old picture | |||
Stands Đurić and the Chetniks, and the Chetniks | |||
I swear before this picture | |||
That I won't give up Krajina to anyone | |||
Blood is not water, blood is not water | |||
The duke is coming, the duke is coming | |||
In Strmica near Grahovo | |||
All is Momčilo's army, Momčilo's | |||
Do we want, dear kin | |||
To join the Chetniks with the duke, with the duke | |||
Blood is not water, blood is not water | |||
The duke is coming, the duke is coming | |||
All of our pride went away, | |||
All went to the Chetniks, to the Chetniks | |||
Do we want, dear kin, | |||
To join the Chetniks with the duke, with the duke | |||
Blood is not water, blood is not water | |||
The duke is coming, the duke is coming | |||
