To battle, go forth you heroes, Go on and don’t regret your lives Let the Cer see the front, let the Cer hear the guns and the river Drina’s glory, courage! And the heroic hand of the father and sons! Sing, sing, cold water of the Drina, Remember, and tell of the ones whom fell, Remember the brave front, full of fire and mighty force Whom expelled the invaders from our dear river! Sing, sing, Drina, tell the generations, How we bravely fought, The front sang, the battle was fought Near cold water Blood was flowing, Blood was streaming by the Drina... for Freedom!
