I looked up the lyrics... seems like it was purposefully written to make any and all Danes cry, lol.

Beautiful, as well.

My favourite song in Croatian. It´s not a classical folk one but it has it vibes. Very stereotypical for Dalmatia.

Love the lyrics (a as far as I see proper translation):

Rock of my ancestors
There is a rock
in the bosom of Knin,
on which a flag flutters
and fights with the bora wind.

There is a rock,
here since ancient times.
My gaze thirstily
looks at it in the morning.
I will give it to no one.
I will give it to no one.

Ref.

The old Hungarians wanted you,
the old Turks and Venetians too.
You were beaten by all sorts of barbarians.
Tell everyone who you belong to.

I am the rock of King Zvonimir,
Croatia´s for centuries.
Brother´s, please give me a little peace:
I am the rock of your ancestors!

There is a rock
in the bosom of Knin,
which the barbarians guard
like a crust of bread.

There is a rock,
here since ancient times.
At its top the colors of glory flutter.
Red, white and blue.
Red white and blue.

Ref.

I am the rock of King Zvonimir,
Croatia´s for centuries.
Brother´s, please give me a little peace:
I am the rock of your ancestors!
