Himna kosovskih junaka
"Himna Kosovskih junaka", or in English "The Hymn of the Kosovo Heroes", is a Serbian folk song, often mistakenly thought to have been sung by Serbians in time of the Battle of Kosovo that occurred in 1389. The song was actually written by Ljubomir Simović as part of the 1989 historical war drama film Battle of Kosovo. It was also the anthem of the JSO.[1]

Христе Боже распети и свети, Збогом први нерођени сине, На три свето и на три саставно, Збогом први нерођени сине, Кад је драга да одлазим чула, |
Hriste Bože raspeti i sveti, Zbogom prvi nerođeni sine, Na tri sveto i na tri sastavno, Zbogom prvi nerođeni sine, Kad je draga da odlazim čula, |
Christ our Lord, crucified and holy, Farewell my first, unborn son, On three holy and three unified, Farewell my first unborn son, When my darling heard that I'm going, |
1У старијој верзији песме спомиње се река Ибар. | 1U starijoj verziji pesme spominje se reka Ibar. | 1Older version of the song feature river Ibar instead. |
2У старијој верзији песме спомиње се калпак (шлем). | 2U starijoj verziji pesme spominje se kalpak (šlem). | 2Older version of the song feature helmet instead. |
3У неким верзијама песме, цео тај ред је замењен са "Одлазимо да их победимо". | 3U nekim verzijama pesme, ceo taj red je zamenjen sa "Odlazimo da ih pobedimo". | 3Some versions of the song have changed that entire line with: "We are leaving to defeat them". |
