Asim Bajramović
When Krayina starts singing
by the blue Sana River,
heroes are remembered,
old glories live forever.
But one name shines brightly
like a jewel in the sky,
Mehmed Alagić fears nothing,
his honor standing high.
Oh Krayina of proud names,
honored and renowned,
you gave birth to a hero
whose equal can't be found.
While the Sana keeps flowing,
memories live on,
Alagić will forever be
the pride of Bosnia.
Near mighty Grmeč Mountain
when the hills were burning bright,
he raised his people proudly
from sorrow to the fight.
In his heart stood Bosnia
like a sacred vow untold,
for his people he kept living,
fearless, brave and bold.
Oh Krayina of proud names,
honored and renowned,
you gave birth to a hero
whose equal can't be found.
While the Sana keeps flowing,
memories live on,
Alagić will forever be
the pride of Bosnia
He possessed no castles
nor riches of this earth,
only honest greatness
far beyond all worldly worth.
So let this song keep flying
through Krayina’s endless skies,
while Bosnia still lives — Mehmed
will never truly die.
