Марш Нової Армії - Ukrainian War Song (March of Ukrainian Nationalists)

The March of the New Army (Ukrainian: Марш нової армії) is a modern adaptation of the song that is used as a Ukrainian military march as well as nationalist song. A modern text was adopted in 2017 at the initiative of Ukrainian vocalist Oleg Skrypka. The new text honors the soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine who fought and died in the Anti-Terrorist Operation Zone during the War in Donbass. According to Skrypka, the text was conceived while at the front in a volunteer unit. The new march was presented for the first time in early 2017 on the eve of the Ukrainian Volunteer Day, and was performed by Skrypka in cooperation with the Song and Dance Ensemble of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. On August 24, 2018, the modern version of the song was performed the first time at the Kyiv Independence Day Parade dedicated to the 27th anniversary of independence and the 100th anniversary of the UPR. In his opening address at the parade, President Petro Poroshenko sang an excerpt of the song, describing it as one that “symbolizes the inextricable bond between different generations of fighters for freedom of the homeland.“ Ukrainian lyrics: Зродились ми великої години, З пожеж війни і полум’я вогнів. Плекав нас біль за долю України, Зростив нас гнів і лють на ворогів. Ми йдемо в бій переможним ходом, Тверді, міцні, незламні, мов граніт, Бо плач не дав нікому ще свободи, Хто борець, той здобуває світ. Велику суть для усіх єдину, Наш гордий клич народові несе Вітчизні будь ти вірний без упину Нам Україна вище понад все! Веде нас в бій героїв наших слава. Для нас закон найвищий то наказ: «Соборна Українська є держава — Одна навік: від Сяну по Кавказ» English Lyrics: We were born of the great hour, From the fires of war, and the flames of fire, We were nurtured for the fate of Ukraine, We were angered by anger and rage against enemies. We go into battle with a triumphant march, Solid, strong, unbreakable, like granite, For crying hasn’t given freedom to anyone yet, But whoever is a fighter, he gains peace. The great essence for all is uniform, Our proud call to the people still sounds: “Be faithful without cease to the Fatherland, For us, Ukraine is above all else“! The battle of the heroes of our glory is where we head And this highest order we shall fulfill - “For a united and independent Ukrainian nation From the San to the Kavkaz, forever strong!“ DISCLAIMER: This channel does NOT represent any political ideology!
