English version

Соколови, сиви тићи, храбре Книнџе крајишници! Ми бранимо дедовину, нашу српску отаџбину! Ми не дамо Далмацију, Кордун, Лику и Банију, Барању и Славонију! Чуваћемо добра наша од злотвора и усташа! Мајке су нас изродиле, љубав, срећу ту створиле. Ми бранимо само своје, да нам сутра буде боље. Поносни смо и без мане - нема места за душмане! Вратићемо српском роду вечну славу и слободу.

Falcons, gray-birds, you courageous borderlanders from Knin! We defend the land of our grandfathers, our Serbian fatherland! We defend Dalmatia, Kordun, Lika and Banija, Baranja and Slavonia. We protect our goods from the evil-doers, and ustashas! Our mothers raised us, making great love and joy. We cherish only that which is ours, so that tomorrow can be a better day. We are proud and fearless, no rogues is among us! We will bring the Serbian race eternal glory and freedom.
