The spell has been broken – v4

(The prophecy fulfilled)
 
Their time of exile has been completed,
a judgement of God upon the people,
stuck between heaven and hell,
this prophecy fulfilled, completed,
lifting the curse over the people,
the spell has been broken, forsaken,
a light is now coming, rising, brighter,
The Great Grave is about to open…
 
Fidelity to their nation, their homeland,
the Kozaks, the Hetman, the Kobzars,
memory of ancient glory, Ukraina,
to the cause of freedom, their songs,
chains of the curse being lifted,
their eyes open, united, together,
one chance for a future, a hope,
a return to their past glory…
 
High upon a mountain, a hilltop,
a tremor, above the mighty Dnipro,
the Bard stirs in his tomb, restless,
for His is The Great Grave, where glory
was hidden, safeguarded, on the heights…
the glory of Ukraine has been opened,
together Kobzars, black-haired maidens
all sing songs of their victory, triumph,
for their boundless love of Ukraine…
