The dead do not yet rest in peace – v2

A truth across time and space,
while the battle still rages,
whispers, murmurs of the fallen,
still rises from the earth…
 
The dead do not yet rest in peace,
while bombs above them are falling,
they cry out for their homeland,
this place that they each love…
 
Glory to the heroes, to the martyrs,
to all of them that have fallen,
may Victory come to their precious land,
may a just Peace rise in Ukraine…
 
Amen
