TRANSLATION OF THE LYRICS:

In the coastal vines,
On the high steep slopes
We loved and grew up.
Oh, Dnieper, Dnieper!
You are broad and powerful!
The cranes are flying over you.

The enemy attacked us,
We left the Dnieper.
The deathly battle thundered
Like a storm.
Oh, Dnieper, Dnieper!
You are flowing far away,
And your waves are
Like tears.

You saw the battle,
Dnieper-Father River,
We went on the attack
Under the mountain.
He who died for the Dnieper,
Will live forever,
Since he fought
Like a hero.

ORIGINAL LYRICS:

У прибрежных лоз, у высоких круч
И любили мы и росли.
Ой, Днипро, Днипро! Ты широк, могуч,
Над тобой летят журавли.

Враг напал на нас, мы с Днепра ушли.
Смертный бой гремел, как гроза.
Ой, Днипро, Днипро! Ты течёшь вдали,
И волна твоя Как слеза.

Ты увидел бой, Днепр-отец река,
Мы в атаку шли под горой.
Кто погиб за Днепр, будет жить веках,
Коль сражался он как герой!
