Lyrics
Lyrics:
Sa Dinare pesme bruje, do srpskog se mora čuje,
od Svilaje do Karina, od Štikova sve do Knina
Pjeva Srpska Krajina, a dušmani bježe,
Krajišnici pjevaju kad im je najteže
Odjekuje pjesma stara od Petrovca i Drvara,
sve se ori do Strmice i do crkve Lazarice
Pjeva Srpska Krajina, a dušmani bježe,
Krajišnici pjevaju kad im je najteže
S Velebita, ko nekada, Žegara i Zelengrada,
zapjevali hrabri borci, Bukovčani, kršni momci
Pjeva Srpska Krajina, a dušmani bježe,
Krajišnici pjevaju kad im je najteže

Lyrics (English):
[TBA]
In Dinara, the songs resound, they must be heard to the Serbian land,
from Svilaja to Karina, from Štikovo all the way to Knin
The Serbian Krajina sings, and the enemies flee,
the Krajina people sing when it is hardest for them
The old song echoes from Petrovac and Drvar,
it resonates all the way to Strmica and to the church of Lazarica
The Serbian Krajina sings, and the enemies flee,
the Krajina people sing when it is hardest for them
From Velebit, like in the past, Žegara and Zelengrad,
the brave fighters sang, the Bukovčani, sturdy lads
The Serbian Krajina sings, and the enemies flee,
the Krajina people sing when it is hardest for them
