National EmblemUkraine is not yet dead, nor it's glory and freedom, Luck will still smile on us brother- Ukrainians. Our enemies will die, as the dew does in the sunshine, And we, too, brothers, we'll live happily in our land. We'll not spare either our souls or bodies to get freedom And we'll prove that we brothers are of Kozak kin. We'll rise up, brothers, all of us, from the Sain to the Don, We won't let anyone govern in out motherland. The Black Sea will smile yet, grandfather Dnipro will rejoice, Yet in our Ukraine luck will be high. Our persistence, our sincere toil will prove it's rightness, Still our freedom's loud song will spread throughout Ukraine. It'll reflect upon the Carpathians, will sound through the steppes, And Ukraine's glory will arise among the people.
