Lyrics:

Far away in his mind, defending the Serbianity, he fires from a gun,
a tired warrior, it's cold in the trench, he was on every battlefield

May the enemies be damned, the Sun will shine over Serbianity,
we defend every foot of a land, of our bright patrimony

For the holy cross and golden freedom!
With faith in God, for freedom and him!

Tomorrow at dawn he will go home, to celebrate Saint John,
old mother and father are waiting for him, to light a candle

May the enemies be damned, the Sun will shine over Serbianity,
we defend every foot of a land, of our bright patrimony

A soldier stopped in one glade, a tear fell from his eye,
a burnt village can be seen in the distance, and ravens fly over it

Don't cry mother if I fall in battle!

May the enemies be damned, the Sun will shine over Serbianity,
we defend every foot of a land, of our bright patrimony



Serbian latin:

Mislima daleko, na braniku Srpstva, iz puške oganj kreše,
umorni ratnik, u rovu je hladno, na svakom ratištu beše

Prokleti bili dušmani, Srpstvu će Sunce da sine,
mi branimo svaku stopu zemlje, naše svjetle dedovine

Za krst časni i slobodu zlatnu!
S verom u Boga, za slobodu i njega!

Sutra zorom kući će poći, Svetog Jovana da slavi,
stara majka i otac ga čeka, sveću da upali

Prokleti bili dušmani, Srpstvu će Sunce da sine,
mi branimo svaku stopu zemlje, naše svjetle dedovine

Na proplanku jednom zastane vojnik, suza mu iz oka kane,
spaljeno selo u daljini se vidi, a nad njime obleću vrane

Ne plač majko ako padnem!

Prokleti bili dušmani, Srpstvu će Sunce da sine,
mi branimo svaku stopu zemlje, naše svjetle dedovine
