We stand together with the Ukrainian people and those throughout the world that seek to provide support and healing for the victims of this atrocious act of aggression.

    Words of the folk song
    Ой у лузі червона калина
    Oh, In the Meadow, a Red Guelder Rose
    Ой у лузі червона калина похилилася,
    Чогось наша славна Україна зажурилася.
    А ми тую червону калину підіймемо,
    А ми нашу славну Україну, гей-гей, розвеселимо!
    А ми тую червону калину підіймемо,
    А ми нашу славну Україну, гей-гей, розвеселимо!
    Oh, in the meadow a red kalyna has bent down low,
    For some reason, our glorious Ukraine is in sorrow.
    And we'll take that red kalyna and we will raise it up,
    And we shall cheer up our glorious Ukraine, hey - hey!
    And we'll take that red kalyna and we will raise it up,
    And we shall cheer up our glorious Ukraine, hey - hey!
    Не хилися, червона калино, маєш білий цвіт,
    Не журися, славна Україно, маєш вільний рід.
    А ми тую червону калину підіймемо,
    А ми нашу славну Україну, гей-гей, розвеселимо!
    А ми тую червону калину підіймемо,
    А ми нашу славну Україну, гей-гей, розвеселимо!
    Do not bend low, oh red kalyna, you have a white flower,
    Do not worry, glorious Ukraine, you have a free people.
    And we'll take that red kalyna and will raise it up,
    And we shall cheer up our glorious Ukraine, hey - hey!
    And we'll take that red kalyna and will raise it up,
    And we shall cheer up our glorious Ukraine, hey - hey!
    Марширують наші добровольці у кривавий тан,
    Визволяти братів-українців з московських кайдан.
    А ми наших братів-українців визволимо,
    А ми нашу славну Україну, гей-гей, розвеселимо!
    А ми наших братів-українців визволимо,
    А ми нашу славну Україну, гей-гей, розвеселимо!
    Marching forward, our fellow volunteers, into a bloody fray,
    For to free our brother Ukrainians from the shackles of Moscow.
    And we, our brother Ukrainians, we will then liberate,
    And we shall cheer up our glorious Ukraine, hey - hey!
    And we, our brothers Ukrainians, will then liberate,
    And we shall cheer up our glorious Ukraine, hey - hey!
    Ой у полі ярої пшенички золотистий лан,
    Розпочали стрільці українські з ворогами тан.
    А ми тую ярую пшеничку ізберемо,
    А ми нашу славну Україну, гей-гей, розвеселимо!
    А ми тую ярую пшеничку ізберемо,
    А ми нашу славну Україну, гей-гей, розвеселимо!
    Oh in the field of early spring wheat, there's a golden furrow,
    Then began the Ukrainian riflemen to engage the enemy.
    And we'll take that precious, early wheat and will gather it,
    And we shall cheer up our glorious Ukraine, hey - hey!
    And we'll take that precious, early wheat and will gather it,
    And we shall cheer up our glorious Ukraine, hey - hey!
    Як повіє буйнесенький вітер з широких степів,
    То прославить по всій Україні січових стрільців.
    А ми тую стрілецькую славу збережемо,
    А ми нашу славну Україну, гей-гей, розвеселимо!
    А ми тую стрілецькую славу збережемо,
    А ми нашу славну Україну, гей-гей, розвеселимо!
    When the stormy winds blow forth from the wide steppes,
    They will glorify, throughout Ukraine, the Sich riflemen.
    And we'll take the glory of the riflemen preserving it,
    And we shall cheer up our glorious Ukraine, hey - hey!
    And we'll take the glory of the riflemen preserving it,
    And we shall cheer up our glorious Ukraine, hey - hey!
    Ще не вмерла України і слава, і воля,
    Ще нам, браття молодії, усміхнеться доля.
    Згинуть наші воріженьки, як роса на сонці.
    Запануєм і ми, браття, у своїй сторонці.
    Nay, thou art not dead, Ukraine, see, thy glory's born again,
    And the skies, O brethren, upon us smile once more!
    As in Springtime melts the snow, so shall melt away the foe,
    And we shall be masters in our own home.
    |: Душу й тіло ми положим за нашу свободу,
    І покажем, що ми, браття, козацького роду.:|
    |: Soul and body, yea, our all, offer we at freedom's call
    We, whose forebears, and ourselves, proud Cossacks are! :|

    I am so glad I had an opportunity to work on the audio mastering. I believe that musicians need to use their skills for social change, and I wanted to thank all of the musicians that have agreed to contribute to this project!

      I agree 100% with you, thank you for your very bold comment when so many are intoxicated with bias news information.

      Yes! Down with the oligarchs and the war profiteering. The US oligarchy will fight the Russian oligarchy to the last Ukrainian, as they say.

      You say you don't support the Ukrainian government but you do support the Ukrainian people, do you condemn the Russian invasion?

      @@JohnP470 i think the Russians have repeatedly stated over the years that they would not tolerate having NATO ballistic missiles on their border. Imagine a similar situation along the Mexico border; who the US tolerate that?
