1. Translation

In the meadow a red viburnum has bent down low
Our glorious Ukraine has been troubled so
And we’ll take that red viburnum and we will raise it up
And we, our glorious Ukraine shall, hey, hey, rise up and rejoice!
And we’ll take that red viburnum and we will raise it up
And we, our glorious Ukraine shall, hey, hey, rise up and rejoice!


This is the song that Pink Floyd played for in their recent release. I found the translation here: https://www.thefocus.news/music/hey-hey-rise-up-pink-floyd-lyrics/

but somehow never got around to listening to it!

4. Thank you so much for the translation and link.

I think it's beautiful. I want these people to be whole and complete. To be restored and thrive. I ache for these people.

I don't understand how one man in this day and age can be causing this disaster. *



* I'm not asking for an explanation. I will remain perplexed...

Ukrainian refugee Elizaveta sings together with 300 Lithuanians, who answered her call to gather in Vilnius and sing this viral Ukrainian folk song to draw attention to the ongoing war and struggles of Ukrainian people. This is a call to #standupforUkraine.

Eliza is a 21 year old Ukrainian singer. She had to flee her home country when Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014 and has been living and studying in Lithuania since 2015. When Russia started the war on February 24th, her family’s home was destroyed by Russian occupants for the second time in their life. Eliza’s mother and brother stayed in Ukraine to defend their homeland. Eliza is safe in Lithuania, sending the message for her family and for her country to stay strong.

Help people like Eliza to rebuild their homes in Ukraine.

pointing you to another post where you may want to add your extra info.

about this woman. Thanks
