A Friend Posted (and Translated the Lyrics) this:
“Not Your War" by the
amazing Ukrainian band Okean Elzy (Океан Ельзи)”
This beautiful song has been on
my mind as my heart is aching for all the innocent people of Ukraine suffering
from the war right now 😢 If anyone is
interested, I will put the English translation in the comments.
(English Translation)
Not your war
Battle at dawn.
Smoke and the sun.
Few people know
What will become of them.
What will the young hearts feel
tomorrow?
Some will have faith, some will
have fear.
Kalina (viburnum) branches are
bending.
Mother, who did we pray to?
How many more of your children
will she take?
The war that is not yours.
Daughters and sons
Grown old.
Colorful dreams they would see
Kissing the hands of the liars
Giving up days for peaceful
nights.
Kalina (viburnum) branches are
bending.
Mother, who did we pray to?
How many more of your children
will she take?
The war that is not yours.
We all used to be fine.
Living without hardship.
Walking my own life.
Only without a goal, just
drifting along.
I can’t do that, and how can
you?!
Kalina (viburnum) branches are
bending.
Mother, we prayed to the wrong!
How many more of your children
will she take away?
The war that is not yours.
