(Chorus of Cossacks) Земля свята, земля козацька, Де вітер волі в степу гуде! Де шабля гостра, душа завзята, І пісня славна понад Дніпром пливе! (Old Cossack): Співай, бандуро, про дні минулі, Про славу наших батьків-героїв. Про битви люті, про рани чулі, Про сльози радості, про сльози болю. (Young Cossack): Годі журитись! Не час для смутку! В жилах козацька ще кров кипить! Нам би коня сідлати, рушницю в руку, І волю нашу від ворогів боронити! (Woman): Сини, мужі, невже війна вам мила? Невже не знаєте ціни спокою? Молитва наша вас завжди хранила, Та серце матері болить за вами в бою. (Chorus of Cossacks): Ні, не війна нам мила, а свобода! Не хочемо під панським гнітом жить! За рідну землю, за свій народ, за згоду, Готові шаблі в руки знов схопить! (Ataman): Браття-козаки! Зібрав я вас недарма! Вісті тривожні до нас дійшли. Ворог зухвалий знову зазіхає на нашеє добро, Хоче забрати землю, що потом полили. (Young Cossack): То дамо йому відсіч! Нехай відчує лють козацьку! Мчімо на конях, як вітер у степу! Покажемо йому, де раки зимують, де наша хатка! Не дамо топтати квітку нашу степову! (Old Cossack): Подумайте, браття, не поспішайте з гнівом. Мудрість потрібна, як і сила в бою. Хай кожен зважить, хай помолиться з Богом, І тільки тоді рушаймо в путь свою! (The Cossacks murmur in agreement, some nodding, others clenching their fists.) (Woman): Благаю вас, вождь, будьте розсудливі! Не кидайте синів на смерть бездумно! Згадайте про сім'ї, про обітниці, про дружби глибину, Нехай повертаються вони додому живими, безумовно! (Ataman): Жінко, знаю біль твій, знаю сльози твої. Та козацька доля – служити Україні. Якщо ворог прийде, не буде нам спокою, повір мені. Тож краще ми підемо, обороним рідні стіни. (A COSSACK SINGS a soulful, yearning song about his love for his homeland and his loved ones.) (Soloist Cossack): Ой степе мій розлогий, краю мій коханий, Де кожна травинка серцю рідна. Де Дніпро широкий, мов батько сивий, Не віддам тебе ворогу нізащо, нізащо! Дівчино моя люба, зіронько ясна, Чекай мене вірно, вір у мою силу. Повернуся з перемогою, з піснею голосна, І щастя наше знов розквітне, мила! (The Chorus of Cossacks joins in, their voices filled with determination and patriotic fervor.) (Chorus of Cossacks): За волю, за землю, за славу козацьку, Вперед, братове, не знаємо ми страху! Хай ворог тремтить, хай тікає навспак, Коли козацька шабля блисне в небі, наче знак! (Ataman): Козаки! Сідлайте коней! В путь! Хай гримить слава про нашу відвагу! За Україну-матір, нехай вороги впадуть! І вічно хай живе козацька звитяга!

Wśród borów głębokich, tam w cieniu drzew, Zielarka znana – ziół pełen śpiew. Przy ogniu siadał ranny rycerz, Hugo z lutnią, w bólu krzyczeć. Grał on na strunach, choć ramię drżało, W melodii skrył, co w sercu bolało. „Czyś lutnik?” – rzecze zielarka biała, „Bo dłonie twe, jakbyś pieśni grała.” Lecz ona wzrokiem przewierca go, „Zostaw tę lutnię, graj ciszej, bo Jak mam Cię opatrywać, druhu, Gdy brzdąkasz ciągle, miast trzymać w duchu?” Hugo się zgniewał, lecz lutnię zdjął, A rana swą pieśń inaczej wciąż wiodł’. I tak wśród śmiechu, pośród gajów, Wyleczył struny – i ból bez jaju.
Verse 1 The night whispers secrets I can't hear, Fading footsteps, shadows drawing near. Five long years, I've waited in vain, A world apart, yet bound by the pain. The ocean calls, but you’re not near, In this hollow space, you still disappear. Pre-Chorus The stars are cold, the sky's unyielding, No light, no sound, just my own breathing. I built this prison in my mind, Hoping you'd break through and leave me blind. Chorus Oh, my seagull, lost in the night, I built this world, but you're out of sight. The shadows won, and they took you away, Now I’m drifting in the sea of gray. I cry for you beneath the moon, In this desolation, we’re lost too soon. Verse 2 The echoes of us, they fade to dust, A love that once was strong, now just lost. Your voice, a whisper in my dreams, The absence of you, haunting, it seems. I reach for you, but the hands of fate Have severed what we swore would not break. Pre-Chorus The stars are cold, the sky's unyielding, No light, no sound, just my own breathing. I built this prison in my mind, Hoping you'd break through and leave me blind. Chorus Oh, my seagull, lost in the night, I built this world, but you're out of sight. The shadows won, and they took you away, Now I’m drifting in the sea of gray. I cry for you beneath the moon, In this desolation, we’re lost too soon. Bridge The shore is distant, my tears they flow, The memories of you, they won't let go. In the depths of darkness, I still wait, For a love that time cannot erase. Chorus Oh, my seagull, lost in the night, I built this world, but you're out of sight. The shadows won, and they took you away, Now I’m drifting in the sea of gray. I cry for you beneath the moon, In this desolation, we’re lost too soon. Outro So I’ll keep calling, into the unknown, Hoping one day, you’ll find your way home.

United forever in friendship and labour, Our mighty collective will ever endure. The Great mechanical nation will live through the ages. The dream of a people their fortress secure. Long live our glorious Cyberstan, Built by the people's mighty hand. Long live our people, united and free. Strong in our friendship tried by fire. Long may our mighty star inspire, Shining in glory for all men to see. Through days dark and stormy when the cyborgs lead us Our eyes saw the bright sun of freedom above And Joel our leader with faith in the people, Inspired us to build up the land that we love. Long live our glorious Cyberstan, Built by the people's mighty hand. Long live our people, united and free. Strong in our friendship tried by fire. Long may our mighty star inspire, Shining in glory for all men to see. We fought for the future, destroyed the lairs, And brought to our homeland the laurels of fame. Our glory will live in the memory of generations And all generations will honour her name. Long live our Soviet motherland, Built by the people's mighty hand. Long live our people, united and free. Strong in our friendship tried by fire. Long may our crimson flag inspire, Shining in glory for all men to see.
(Verse 1) In the heart of Transylvania, where shadows deeply grow, The Carpathian mountains stand, their majesty aglow. But hark! A bear of storms, fierce as wildest night, Comes rumbling through the forest, ready for the fight. (Chorus) Oh, bear of storms, oh, mighty beast, With thunder in your roar, your fury's never ceased. Mountains high, tremble low, feel the tempest's call, In this dance of nature, may the greatest rise or fall. (Verse 2) With lightning in his eyes and thunder in his paws, The bear shakes the valleys with nature's fierce applause. He storms against the mountains, proud and standing tall, A clash of fate and fury as the ancient giants fall. (Chorus) Oh, bear of storms, oh, mighty beast, With thunder in your roar, your fury's never ceased. Mountains high, tremble low, feel the tempest's call, In this dance of nature, may the greatest rise or fall. (Verse 3) The spirit winds do whisper, and the elements do wail, As the bear unleashes power in this earth-shaking tale. "Come join me in this battle, feel nature's wild refrain, For the storm shall claim its glory, and the mountains bear the pain." (Chorus) Oh, bear of storms, oh, mighty beast, With thunder in your roar, your fury's never ceased. Mountains high, tremble low, feel the tempest's call, In this dance of nature, may the greatest rise or fall. (Outro) So let the story echo, let the ages carry on, Of a bear that battled mountains till the night was gone. For in the winds of legends, amidst the shadows deep, The storm-bear roams forever, and the mountains softly weep.

छोटा गुलाबी सूअर आया, खेतों में मस्ती फैलाया। घास के ढेर पर कूद-फांद, सूरज संग खेला छुपा-छिपा। सूं-सूं करता इधर-उधर, मिट्टी में लोटे सुबह-सवेरे। दूध की बाल्टी देखे जो, झटपट दौड़े, कहे "मेरे-मेरे!" उसकी पूंछ छोटी, घुमावदार, नाक में हल्की, मस्त ताजगी। माँ का प्यार और दोस्तों संग, बचपन में हर दिन है रागी। चल सूअर, खेत को जाएं, दोस्तों संग गाना गाएं। सूं-सूं की धुन पर नाचे, खुशियों के पल खूब भाएं। छोटा गुलाबी सूअर प्यारा, सबका दुलारा, सबसे न्यारा। मस्ती में जीवन बिताए, हर दिल को हंसना सिखाए!
[Instrumental]
Verse 1: I saw you there, your eyes so deep, Like the waves that crash on the shore so sweet, The moonlight dances in your hair, In that moment, I knew you’d always be there. Pre-Chorus: The sea breeze whispers your name, Like a song, it pulls me in again, In this place where time stands still, I feel your love, I always will. Chorus: In the coastal breeze, where the world fades away, I’ll be yours, and you’ll be mine, come what may, With the stars above and the sand beneath, I’ll hold you close, you’re all I need. In the coastal breeze, let’s drift away, We’ll find a world where we can stay. Verse 2: Your laughter echoes in the night, Like the softest melody in the moonlight, And when you smile, the world’s alright, With every touch, we chase the light. Pre-Chorus: The sea breeze whispers your name, Like a song, it pulls me in again, In this place where time stands still, I feel your love, I always will. Chorus: In the coastal breeze, where the world fades away, I’ll be yours, and you’ll be mine, come what may, With the stars above and the sand beneath, I’ll hold you close, you’re all I need. In the coastal breeze, let’s drift away, We’ll find a world where we can stay. Bridge: And I don’t need the world to see, I just need you here with me, In this quiet, peaceful place, Where love is all that we embrace. Chorus (Reprise): In the coastal breeze, where the world fades away, I’ll be yours, and you’ll be mine, come what may, With the stars above and the sand beneath, I’ll hold you close, you’re all I need. In the coastal breeze, let’s drift away, We’ll find a world where we can stay. Outro: In the coastal breeze, in the coastal breeze, Where we’ll stay forever, just you and me.
