Dolazak Hrvata - Thompson

U junačkoj zemlji miloj, lijepoj i dalekoj

U godini gospodnjoj šest stotina i nekoj

Spustila se na tu zemlju sila

Plava je krv narod predvodila

Drhti zemlja, kamen puca

Kroz nebeska vrata

Dojahao bijeli vitez

Sa mačem od zlata

Dajte mi komad zemlje svete

Zemlja je i mati i dijete

Ljubi svoju zemlju, na njoj ti sagradi dom

I brani je, krvlju svojom povezan si s njom

Ljubi svoju zemlju, ljubi blagoslovljen plod

I ponosno po njoj hodaj svoj zemaljski hod

Bijeli vitez krenu natrag kroz nebeska vrata

Ostavio Lijepu našu bez gladi i rata

Pred nebeskog Oca klekne s' riječima od zlata

Predao sam zemlju svetu u ruke Hrvata

A junačka zemlja moja mila

Do danas je riječi zapamtila

In a heroic land dear, beautiful and distant

In the year of the Lord six hundred and some

A force descended on that land

The blue blood led the people

The earth trembles, the stone cracks

Through the gates of heaven

A white knight rode up

With a sword of gold

Give me a piece of holy land

The earth is both mother and child

Love your country, build your home on it

And defend her, with your blood you are connected with her

Love your country, love the blessed fruit

And walk your earthly walk proudly on it

The white knight headed back through the gates of heaven

He left Lijepa naša without hunger and war

He knelt before the heavenly Father with words of gold

I handed over the country to the world in the hands of the Croats

And my heroic country, my dear

To this day, she has memorized the words
