Baja Mali Knindža (Serbian: Баја Мали Книнџа), whose real name is Mirko Pajčin, is a Bosnian Serb turbo folk singer. He was born on 13 October 1966 in the village of Gubin, near Livno, Bosnia, then Yugoslavia.
Baja Mali Knindža is not to be mistaken with Nedeljko Bajić Baja, who is another famous turbo folk singer. Baja Mali Knindža performs patriotic songs and odes to alcohol, such as "Duni vjetre preko jetre" (Blow, wind, through the liver). Baja Mali Knindza is well known for his nationalist songs supporting the Serbs during the Yugoslav wars. Since the fall of Krajina, Baja Mali Knindža has written many songs about his dream of the Serbian people returning to live in the territories occupied during the Croatian War of Independence. The songs also express his sorrow of living without his land. Many of the songs became instant hits, such as "Ne rodila ni njivo ni šljivo". Here is a sample of the lyrics from the song:
- Ne rodila ni njivo ni šljivo / The plums nor the fields have grown
- I sve im se osušilo živo / and everything has dried up on them
- Što sadili, ništa ne rodilo / whatever they have planted, nothing has grown
- Hej dušmani prokleto vam bilo / my enemy, may you be forever cursed
