Ristić--musical arrangement: M. M. Petrović) A falcon bird flies up, High in the air, Under it, down, a dark mountain, Lush, green. The falcon bird quietly says to the green Gora: Oh, you goro, green-goro, Goro fragrant, Do you hear tonight, when Oro dances in you? Three companies arrived last night, Comita companies, In the top, up, at the height, The flag was unfurled. Around him Oro led with exuberant power; And from the throat, a man's throat, the Song rumbles. Did you hear a song, a lush song, Male, heroic, Did you know, woe, did you understand, Who were they? Green mountain softly says to the falcon bird: Oh, falcon, peregrine falcon, Heroic bird, I have seen everything, I have heard everything, Listen, who are they: The first company, that descends Above, from Kozjaka - This is the company, a wonderful company, Đorđe Skopljanca: The second company, which is arriving in Ozdo, from Pčinje - This is a company, a strong company, Dovezenskogo: The third company, which gathered from Preševo ​​- It is led by yourself: Krsta Vojvoda. On all, peregrine falcons, Wonderful gear; In everyone, my bird, ready to kill. The wheel is led by a young man from Skopljan Fast, boyish, Young boys are next to him, Boys from Vardar. Boiled heroic blood, All strength plays; They gathered themselves, to make the Battle the last. Because from Morava today, they say, Serbia is coming, My falcon, gray falcon, Mother Serbia! Wave stronger, soar in the sky, Let out your voice - My falcon, my bird, Freedom is coming!
