A fabric of steel,
a cloak of the dead,
a hedge of protection,
a breastplate of armor
The warriors descending
from their rest in Valhalla,
creating a fabric, a memory,
new embroidered Vyshyvanka,
Stitched with fibers, their memory,
woven with their precious blood,
their homeland goes with them,
vanquishing the enemy, terror,
bombs raining down on them,
protected by the warriors,
their revered dead.
