Original lyrics
Tamo Daleko (Prvobitna Verzija)
Tamo daleko, daleko od mora,
tamo je selo moje, tamo je Srbija
Tamo daleko, gde cveta limun žut,
tamo je srpskoj vojsci jedini bio put
Tamo daleko, gde cveta beli krin
tamo su živote dali zajedno otac i sin
Tamo gde tiha putuje Morava
tamo mi ikona osta i moja krsna slava
Tamo gde Timok pozdravlja Veljkov Grad
tamo mi spališe crkvu u kojoj venčah se mlad
bez otačbine, na Krfu živeh ja
ali sam ponosno klic'o "Živela Srbija!"

Translation
There far away
There far away, far from the sea,
There is my village, there is Serbia.
There far away, where yellow lemon blooms,
There was the only path for the Serbian army.
There far away, where white lilly blooms,
There are father and son giving their lives together.
There where the silent Morava flows,
There my icon stays, and my family saint.
There where Timok greets Veljko's city,
There they burnt down the church, in which I was married when young.
Without fatherland, on Corfu I lived,
But I proudly cheered: Long live Serbia!
