I’m excited to share my first translation! This was a requested translation, and I am our only Ukrainian author available at the moment. My older brother, Aleksander, was a huge help with the technical aspects of subtitling. This song celebrates the importance of family, a value dear to Ukrainian culture and even more precious now amidst the war. I hope this translation resonates with you.

English translation
Remember your life
Pass it on to your children
If a dark night comes
Your loved ones will stand shoulder to shoulder
Your loved ones will stand shoulder to shoulder
The most important thing is family
Here you are your own person
If you fall, they will lift you up
If you take off, they will rejoice
The most important thing is family
Here you are your own child
If you fall, they will lift you up
If you take off, they will rejoice
Walk boldly through life
Your loved ones will protect you
And seek out your own people
Don’t forget your kin
Don’t forget your kin
The light will come alive in us
Morning will come again
Warmth is where the family is
Where your family is
The most important thing is family
Here you are your own person
If you fall, they will lift you up
If you take off, they will rejoice
The most important thing is family
Here you are your own child
If you fall, they will lift you up
If you take off, they will rejoice
Official lyrics
Ти своє життя згадай
Своїм дітям передай
Якщо прийде темна ніч
Стануть рідні пліч о пліч
Стануть рідні пліч о пліч
Головне це Родина
Тут ти своя людина
Якщо впадеш піднімуть
Якщо злетів радіють
Головне це Родина
Тут ти своя дитина
Якщо впадеш піднімуть
Якщо злетів радіють
По життю сміливо йди
Будуть рідні берегти
І людей своїх шукай
Про свій рід не забувай
Про свій рід не забувай
Світло в нас оживе
Ранок знову прийде
Тепло там де сім‘я
Де родина твоя
Головне це Родина
Тут ти своя людина
Якщо впадеш піднімуть
Якщо злетів радіють
Головне це Родина
Тут ти своя дитина
Якщо впадеш піднімуть
Якщо злетів радіють
The land of weekends
Through different eyes

Congratulations on your first translation! I very much appreciate having this celebration of family available. The use of repetition in the song is effective. And, yes, I can resonate. I hope you and your family and friends are really well.
