Analysis of Ukraine

A.S.Chuba 2008 (Zhytomyr)



There is a country that suffered famine and loss;
She has in many wars truly fought.
Her men did faithfully pick up their heavy cross,
Without fear they defended their spot.

Now Ukraine is again under Russian attacks.
People thought it'll be hopeless by now.
But Ukrainian people have each other's backs,
And to fight till the end they all vow.

The rose heroes among them, both children and men,
Who gave up their own lives to save more,
And the Russians attacked again and then again,
But Ukraine remained strong as before.
