1 VERSE:
Трембіти плачуть за мій вільний народ
Котре століття жиє поміж негод
Племен молитви чули і Перун і Дажбог
Віче формувало код етнічних спільнот
Аби було добре всім вельможим і панам
Боронив із козаками землю отаман
Моя Батьківщина як дівчина молода
Буде проростати як пшениця золота
BRIDGE:
Гей, вийди доле із води
Визволь моє серденько з біди
Come out from the water destiny
All my sisters (sisters)
All my brothers (brothers)
Give the drop that all we need
CHORUS:
Тіні забутих предків моїх і твоїх
В літописах, серцях, очах, крові віків на вік
Shadows of forgotten ancestors a-a-a
In chronicles, hearts and eyes, in our blood forever

In my childhood, girls played with toy dolls, but I wrote these words, herе
Coz, my favorite toy was a book of Shakespearе
Just like the Brothers Grimm, I’ll leave behind a piece of me
Remember your ancestors, but write your own history
