My own lyrics for "Marš na Drinu", a famous military march. Aspiring to capture the message of Serbian original but make it singable in English. In fact, make it singable at all: less then 1% of Serbian people can actually sign the original :)
To...
Arms...
All the fathers, all the sons...
To arms, cause the final time has come...
May the river see
May the river know about your glory
Earn a place with
All the heroes that were here before you
Drina...
All the blood will wash away...
Drina, but forever you will stay...
You will tell the tale
You remember heroes when you see them
You remember
All the lives and all the blood for freedom
