i u zdravlju podignimo casu
s Ocausa hladan vjetar piri
po Teslicu pravoslavlje zivi
Ref. 2x
S Ocaus planine pogled je do Save
u dolini Usore delije su prave
Oj Srdjane sad poslusaj ovo
kako pjeva grlo srbinovo
od Blatnice pa do Ocausa
sve je brale pravoslavna dusa
Ref. 2x
Oj Srdjane teslicka delijo
jesi li se pjesme pozelio
od Teslica pa do Pribrinica
sve je brale zemlja Nemanjica
