Glory to the hero
New day comes, my son
And you haven’t got it anymore.
You loved Ukraine very much
But the war destroyed everything.
How will the trees be without you
Which you planted in the garden?
And flowers, and grass, and heaven,
And Korets, that you loved?
The city came to meet you,
People are mourning, the earth is crying.
Tears are flowing like a river, my child,
How sad is your house.
White-haired and children
And your friends and brothers.
And flowers, a lot of them, mychild,
Bowed their heads.
And “Glory to the hero” – sounds.
You defended your Fatherland.
And bravely, like a hero
Put life on the altar.
A star came down from the sky.
The bell rises, the earth mocks.
Ukrainians do not want to fight
This grief has come from the Kremlin.
In a joint prayer to God
“Our Father” say my lips.
Although a short life road,
That magnificent way feat.
Memory will live forever in the people,
In trees, colorful flowers.
You flew high into the heaven,
As a proud unbroken bird.
Mariia Denysiuk, Korets, 2014
