Macedonian national anthem
Vlado Maleski (Struga, 1919-1984) is a distinguished macedonian narrator and novelist. He is a member of the first macedonian generation of writers. He was a member of NOB (the fight for national freedom during the WW II). When he was asked how much his biography is connected to his literary work he answered: "Of course the war, the revolution. This period of my life has left a lifelasting mark in me, and that's why, so far, it is the only theme in the prose I have written".
He has published the collections of stories Gurgina alova and Branuvanje and the novels Ona sto bese nebo, Razboj, Zapisi na Ezerko Drimski, and others. He is believed to have written the macedonian national anthem.
Today Above Macedonia
Today above Macedonia, is born
the new sun of liberty
The Macedonians fight
for their own rights!
The Macedonians fight
for their own rights!
Now again the flag flies
(that) of the Krushevo Republic
Goce Delchev, Pitu Guli
Dame Gruev, Sandanski!
Goce Delchev, Pitu Guli
Dame Gruev, Sandanski!
The Macedonian forests sing
new songs and news
Macedonia is liberated
It lives in liberty!
Macedonia is liberated
It lives in liberty!
