Ukrainians. Forever strong.

Ukrainians. Forever strong.

I can’t hold on to fear anymore,
I will be louder and bolder,
I want to drink my life and ask for more,
As days get shorter and the nights get colder.

I want to soar above my fears,
Break down the expectations,
I’m crying free and happy tears,
Untangling locations…

I found my land, it’s not too late,
To hug and hold it tight.
Ukraine won’t die, we’ll hold the gate,
Together day and night.

United we will take the stand,
Our spirit won’t be broken.
Our sons bring glory to the land,
Where Ukrainian is spoken…

My heart will break for every son,
Who won’t be coming home.
We stand for them, we stand as one,
Ukrainians. Forever strong.
