INNO JUGOSLAVIA

Adopted in 1945

Words by SAMUEL TOMAŠIK (1813-1887)

Hej Sloveni, jÚste ûivi

Re¹ naših dedova,

Dok za narod srce bije

Njihovih sinora.

¦ivi, ûivi duh slovenski,

¦ivece vekov'ma,

Zalud preti ponor pakla,

Zalud vatra groma,

Zalud vatra groma!

Nek se sada i nad nama

Burom sve raznese,

Stena puca, dub se lama,

Zemlja nek se trese.

Mi stojimo postojano

Kano klisurine;

Proklet bio izdajica

Svoje domovine!

TRANSLATION

Hey Slavs! our grandfathers' word still lives,

As long as their sons' heart beats for the people.

It lives, the spirit of Slavs lives, it will live for centuries,

The abyss of hell threatens in vain, the fire of thunder is in vain.

Now let everything above us be carried away by the bura*.

The rock cracks, the oak breaks, let the ground shake.

We stand steadfastly like cliffs;

Let the traitor of his homeland be damned!
