Сам собі країна [Sam sobi krayina] [English translation]

American flag is on you jeans

Canadian maple leaf is on your T-short

In your eyes one can see one and only one question:

Who can tell me - why I was born here?

It’s not your fault that you ‘re son of your father

But your misfortune is not being able to accept that

Refrain:

Don’t be ashamed –that’s your land

Don’t be ashamed – that’s Ukraine

It's seems to be so good in other places only while we’re not present there

Became a normal son for your father

You’ll buy contemporary German shoes again

Your ears have long been accustomed to strange music

Grimace of pain hardened on your lips:

Why I'm still here if I have been dreaming about freedom during such a long time?

It’s not your fault that you ‘re son of your father

But your misfortune is not being able to accept that

Refrain:

Don’t be ashamed –that’s your land

Don’t be ashamed – that’s Ukraine

It's seems to be so good in other places only while we’re not present there

Became a normal son for your father

And, perhaps, your misfortune was that it was necessary to look for the answer inside you, not in geography textbook.

You can be the country for yourself! Make order in your head first!
