Subject
Three times the line fired at them. For three times the mass cried out from the depths of their hearts: “Long live the Ukrainian state!” – They marched to their deaths in a line. Each time they cried out across their land, from the Danube region to the Caucasus!
The mountains echoed: Glory, glory, glory!
