"I'll be your man, beloved"

"I'll be your man, beloved"

(Based from a song "Ja Sin Sam Tvoj")




From the chimneys comes a willing call
Voices of struggle rise and resound
These are the voices of a risen people
Whose fields and homes trying to unbound
From the church bells proudly ringing
And the masjids adhans solemnly chanting
These are the voices of a risen people
Whose fields and homes trying to unbound

Roses are blooming over blood soil'd ricefields
Blue dawn over the lowly seas
Sunlight ripples over the green mountains
Spreading out to the cherished cities
Crystal clear waters over the rivers
White sand beaches yearning for hopes
Through the waves brought by summer breezes
Resounds the clamours of emerging freedom

And if the enemies casts thy shadows
Over the misty silent graves
They will meet us, dead, living comrades
Willing to face death with our cherished arms raised
Singing songs of an emerging freedoms
Clamours brought by a people awake
Over the battles an epic's been written
All by blood in its unwritten pages

O ageless homeland, facing thy mar
Cherished in struggle, blood, and war
Through you I'll stood guard through my two eyes
I'll be your man, beloved,
I'll be your man.
