A marching and fighting refrain
THE FELLOWSHIP OF UKRAINE- A Marching and Battle Refrain

The fellowship of Ukraine
No stranger to anguish and pain
The fellowship of Ukraine
The sunflowers are bloodied and stained
By fire and the wounds of the slain
The fellowship of Ukraine

The fellowship
The fellowship
The fellowship of Ukraine!

The brothers and fathers
The sisters and mothers
The daughters and sons
Of Ukraine
sleep where they fell
In freshly dug graves
Wooden crosses for where they are lain
For The fellowship of Ukraine

The fellowship
The fellowship
The fellowship of Ukraine!

The rivers and soil
The Wind and the rain
The forebears before us
Who planted and toiled
In the fields and hills
The Mountains and dales
This country belongs to Ukraine

The fellowship
The fellowship
The fellowship of Ukraine!

It’s our homeland
Much more than a name
Its spirit can never be tamed
It's our place in the world
With a flag that’s unfurled
For its sovereignty isn't a game
The fellowship of Ukraine

The fellowship
The fellowship
The fellowship of Ukraine!

When the chips they are down
‘Mongst the shot and the shell
And conditions are going to hell
We’ll sing our song
That we still belong
To the fellowship of Ukraine

The fellowship
The fellowship
The fellowship of Ukraine!

And when we are done
Have the Orcs on the run
And the Dark Lord has had his day
There’ll be summer berries
And the girls will eat cherries
Streets live full of dancing and fun
In the long days of daylight
the crystalline twilight
The silence of peace in the sun
The echoes of marching and guns
The dead and the living are one
In the fellowship of Ukraine

The fellowship
The fellowship
The fellowship of Ukraine!

We’ll rebuild our homes
From the rubble and stones
We’ll struggle and work till it’s done
We’ll never give in
Or ever give up
On the fellowship of Ukraine

The fellowship
The fellowship
The fellowship of Ukraine!

And our children will come
Build on what has become
a birthright and peoples' will
To do what is right
Know for what they will fight
For the fellowship of Ukraine.

The fellowship
The fellowship
The fellowship of Ukraine!
