The Carol of Ukraine

Words by Daniel Kelly  - 2022

Slava, Ukraine
Praise to her name,
Long may she be,
Strong true and free.

Christmas is near
Russia is here,
Kill’d young and old,
Bringing the cold

Violence so wrong,
That’s Putin’s song,
While rockets sing
all murdering,

Still we can hear
No sound of fear,
Soldier’s are brave
Ukraine to save

O, how they fight
Shadows at night
O'er hill and dale
Never to fail,

Power they bring
while people sing
Songs of good cheer
Ukraine is still here!

Slava, Ukraine! X 2

On, on they stand
Saving their land,
Their rifles strong,
Fighting so long.
