He is the central figure,
the Kobzar, the Prophet,
the hope of this ancient people
the Rock on which they stand...
He is their Father, their guidestar,
their hope in this moment,
on the Rock of Taras Shevchenko
the Ukrainian people stand...
He is the one essential Voice,
He suffered for her deeply,
His is The Great Grave opened,
revealing Ukraine’s glory...
Shevchenko is the Bard,
He is the Hetman, the conscience,
on the Rock of Taras Shevchenko
the Ukrainian people stand...
