God, sow, open, Spread the windows with silk, The village is plowed with song, The echo passes to the city, Duke Gligor is coming! His rifle is embroidered with silk, There are precious stones on it, There is a sign on it, Of our tormented people, And in it is our freedom! Divine, sow, open, Sprinkle colorful flowers, Your born brother speaks to you, Bring wonderful gifts, For our white eagles! Divine flowers spilled out, Red wine poured out Oro began to howl, The dawn dances. Gligor turns the wheel, Božana cries with happiness. -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- --------- 'Polozi' refers to Polog, Tetovo and Gostova region in Macedonia. Gligor Sokolović was born around 1870 in the village of Nebregovo in Old Serbia. He became famous at a very young age, when he killed Ali-Aga, a hanged Turk from Crnilista who was abusing the local population at the time. After that, in 1895, Gligor broke away into the forest with a few other comrades. That company was fear and trembling for Turks and Kachaks in this region. He participated in the Ilinden Uprising. In retaliation, the Turks captured and killed Sokol Lamevic's father. In one of the fights with the Turks, he was wounded in the head, and then he fled to Serbia. In Belgrade, Duke Gligor Sokolović approached the newly founded Serbian Chetnik organization and soon formed a company of about fifty Chetniks and in the fall of 1904 took them to Poreč, on Babuna. It was our strongest company in Macedonia. Duke Gligor and Duke Jovan Babunski controlled the entire Pelagonia from the highest peak of Babuna, Mukos. In the years that followed, Gligor, as insanely brave and fearless, was the striking fist of the Chetnik movement. He took part in almost all major battles of Serbian Chetniks and Bulgarian companies. He cleared of them: Prilep, Kicevo, Veles and Poreč region. When the Young Turk Revolution was carried out in 1908 and when the reformist current that came to power announced Hurriyet (freedom) for all oppressed Christians, an amnesty was also passed for all renegades from the Turkish government. According to the previous agreement, the Serbian, Bulgarian and Greek Chetnik action also stopped. Thus, according to instructions from Belgrade, all Chetnik dukes had to surrender to Shefket Pasha in Skopje. But later the Turks changed their policy and turned against the Serbs. Voivode Gligor was killed by the Turks in July 1910 near his native village of Nebregovo.
