Written in 1943 when relations between Josip Broz Tito and the Soviet leadership were very close, the early version of the song included a mention of Joseph Stalin. The first verse of this early version read "Uz Tita, Staljina, dva junačka sina" (With Tito and Stalin, two heroic sons). After the Tito-Stalin split in 1948, Stalin's name was dropped and the first verse was changed to "Uz maršala Tita, junačkoga sina" (With marshal Tito, a heroic son).

After the war, Tito was the chief architect of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY), serving as the prime minister (1944–1963), president (1953–1980; since 1974 president for life), and marshal of Yugoslavia, the highest rank of the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA). Despite being one of the founders of Cominform, he became the first Cominform member to defy Soviet leadership in 1948. He was the only leader in Joseph Stalin's lifetime to leave the Cominform.
