Our Blue Mountains (Support Song For Ukraine)

by Knights of Heliopolis (ex-Phoebus the Knight)

/

about

Hi fellows !

This song was humbly written to provide support to the Ukrainian people during the current war. It is available on our Bandcamp page and every last penny earned from it will be given to the France-Ukraine fund gathering of La Croix Rouge to help the victims of this terrible situation.

The lyrics were written with quotes from the poem "Кавказ" by the famous Ukrainian poet Taras Chevtchenko. The character speaking through those words was imagined as an Ukrainian person or soldier living through the war.

We created this song with the sincere will to help, as we believe it’s one of the purposes of artists. It is not a political statement, only a mean to earn some money to help people in need. We're not against Russian people, we're not supportive to any "truth" presented by any of the big parties involved, we're just against war.

lyrics

Our Blue Mountains


Beyond the eastern forests
The Tsar's eagle soars.
Of its immaculate white wings
It hides the sun,
And casts its shadow on our lands

Leading the black wolves across the steppe,
Coming out from the mist.
They kill our mothers and our sisters.
Their bodies fall, but their souls rise.
They can’t drink them or chain them.
They are like freedom, immortals.

Dressed in gold and azure
They stand and resist
The Black Wolves of Grozny
To protect our blue mountains.
Glory to you, O great knights,
Whom God has not forgotten.
The struggle, you will overcome ! God helps you
To protect our blue mountains

Have pity on your enemies. They drank from the Moscow chalice.
They tasted the poison of the white eagle.
But we’re immune, the sun shines behind us.
Assault after assault you will resist
The blood of the great Cossack horsemen flows in you
Do not fear death, cause your soul will always live in Ukraine.

Dressed in gold and azure
They stand and resist
The Black Wolves of Grozny
To protect our blue mountains.
Glory to you, O great knights,
Whom God has not forgotten.
The struggle, you will overcome ! God helps you
To protect our blue mountains

Вітер тихий з України
(Peaceful winds from Ukraine,)

Понесе з росою
(Bearing dew, will carry)

Мої думи аж до тебе!..
(All my thoughts to you, dear brother,)

Братньою сльозою
(Greeting them with sorrow,)

Ти їх, друже, привітаєш,
(You will read them to the end,)

Тихо прочитаєш...
(Recalling quietly,)

І могили, степи, море.
(The graves, the plains, the sea,)

І мене згадаєш.
(And you will remember me.)
