Na zapovijed generale
Niko Bete · Other Songs - Niko Bete
nase svete domovine
ratnice, junace
sva zemlja ustat ce
Da te brani isto kao
sto si za nas ratovao
sto si vojsku ti poveo
u pobjedu je odveo
Ref.
U povijesti zlatna slova
ispisat će ime tvoje
da ti hvala pjesmom kazem
sto pjesama premalo je
Svi za tebe, sve za tebe
branimo te kao sebe
na zapovijed generale
udruge su ustale
ako treba da se gine
junak si domovine
Svi za tebe, sve za tebe
branimo te kao sebe
spomenik ti treba dici
na sud neces otici
ma ne daju te Hrvati
svi cemo te cuvati
