Celebration of Serbian Tradition Amidst Tensions
Our people celebrated their patron saint's day today
St. Petka all across Serbia.
Some inhumans
broke into their celebrations
from Vrbas to Gornji Milanovac. And those inhumans
imagined they had the right, for the first time since
1945, to commit such a crime in our country.
To commit such a crime.
Not only do they have no right, not only are they cowardly, not
human, as we can see,
but I ask those who can't handle victory,
let alone defeat,
whether they will do something about it
or not?
If not,
we will protect ourselves
and look after ourselves.
But you will never take away our patron saint's day.
We will celebrate our patron saint's day.
It is a Serbian custom. It is Serbian faith,
Serbian tradition, and it's all we have.
You have taken so much from us.
You tried to destroy families,
the state,
and taking our patron saint's day too would be too much.
We will preserve it all, reclaim what has been lost.
And people, heads up,
heads up.
We're strong enough, wise enough and smart enough
to defeat those who don't even know
how to enjoy their own victory,
but think enjoyment means
physically harming someone else and
carrying out revolutionary terror.
That never lasted long.

Naši ljudi danas su slavili slavu Svetu Petku širom Srbije. Neki neljudi upadali su im na slavu od Vrbasa do Gornjih Milanovaca. I ti neljudi su
umislili da imaju pravo prvi put posle hiljadu devetsto četrdeset i pete godine da u našoj zemlji čine takav zločin. Ne samo da nemaju pravo, ne samo da nisu hrabri, da nisu ljudi, to vidimo,
već pitam one koji nisu u stanju da podnesu pobedu, a kamoli poraz, hoće li nešto da urade po tom pitanju ili ne? Ako ne,
čuvaćemo se sami i brinućemo sami. Ali nam slavu ukinuti nećete nikada. Slavu ćemo da slavimo. To je srpski običaj. To je srpska vera,
srpska tradicija i to nam je sve što imamo. Mnogo toga ste nam uzeli. Pokušali da uništite porodice, državu, još i slavu da nam uzmete, mnogo bi bilo.
Sačuvaćemo sve to, povratiti ono što je izgubljeno. I ljudi glavu gore, glavu gore. Dovoljno smo jaki, dovoljno mudri i dovoljno pametni da pobedimo ove koji ni u
svojoj pobedi ne umeju da uživaju, već misle da je uživanje to što će nekom drugom fizički da naškode i što će da sprovode revolucionarni teror. To nikada dugo nije trajalo.
