Lyrics and Translation:
Боже великий, єдиний,
Нам Україну храни.
Волі і світу промінням,
Ти її осіни.
Світлом науки і знання,
Нас, дітей, просвіти.
В чистій любові до краю,
Ти нас, Боже, зрости.
Молимось, Боже єдиний,
Нам Україну храни.
Всі свої ласки й щедроти,
Ти на люд наш зверни.
Дай йому волю, дай йому долю,
Дай доброго світу, щастя,
Дай, Боже, народу
І многая, многая літа
Oh Lord, Great and Almighty,
Protect our Ukraine,
Shine on her your blessings
Of freedom and light.
With the light of learning and knowledge,
Enlighten us, your children.
In pure love everlasting
Let us, oh Lord, grow.
We pray, oh Lord Almighty,
Protect our Ukraine.
Grant our people
All your kindness and grace.
Bless us with freedom,
Bless us with wisdom,
Bless the world, oh Lord with good fortune
For ever and evermore.
Prayer for Ukraine (Молитва за Україну)
