Боже Правде (оригинал) (anthem of Serbia - The God of Justice (original version) )

I do not own anything, I've just made the subtitles. Lyrics : God of Justice, you who saved us from extinction till this day, Hear our prayers from now on, as well and be our saviour as you were in the past. Defend us and lead us with your might, to the days of better future for Serbs God save, God feed the Serbian king and all Serbs God save, God feed the Serbian king and all Serbs Unite all of Serbs everywhere as brothers, in everything noble and glorious they do. Only our unity will defeat the devil, and the best way for prosperity of all Serbs May the Serbian lands shine with the golden result of brother-like unity God save, God feed the Serbian king and all Serbs God save, God feed the Serbian king and all Serbs May on Serb's (bright) forehead, never fall the thunder of your anger, Bless the Serb's village, plains, farmlands, town and home When the days of battle come, guide us to glorious victories! God save, God feed the Serbian king and all Serbs God save, God feed the Serbian king and all Serbs From the darkest slavery a new light of Serbian unity has shined A new age has come, God, grant us bright future, Defend the Serbian fatherland, result of five-centuries-long fight God save, God feed the Serbian king and all Serbs God save, God feed the Serbian king and all Serbs References: Kako je nastala pjesma, kada je nastala, itd.
