VOLUNTEER FOR UKRAINE

A call for loyal soldiers

Comes to one and all;

Soldiers from Ukraina,

Will you heed a call?

Will you answer quickly

With a ready cheer,

Will you be enlisted

As a volunteer?

 

Ukraina calls for soldiers

Who are filled with pow'r,

Soldiers who will aid her

Every day and hour;

You must not forsake her:

be forever near, Go and be enlisted

As a volunteer.

 

Lovingly she calls you

With a heart most kind,

She whose heart was broken,

Broken my mankind;

Now Ukraina call you

Calls in accents clear,

"Come and be enlisted

As a volunteer!"

 

And when the war is over,

And victory is won,

When the truly faithful

Gather one by one,

She'll be crowned in glory

That will not disappear;

For her we all enlisted

As a volunteer.
