English translation

Shche ne vmerla Ukrayiny i slava i volya, Shche nam, brattia ukrayintsi, usmikhnet'sia dolia. Z-hynut' nashi vorizhen'ky, yak rosa na sontsi, Zapanuyem i my, brattia, u svoyiy storontsi. CHORUS x2 Dushu y tilo my polozhym za nashu svobodu I pokazhem, shcho my, brattia, kozats'koho rodu. Stanem brattia, v biy kryvavy, vid Sianu do Donu V ridnim kraiu panuvaty ne damo ni komu. Chorne more shche vsmikhnetsia, did Dnipro zradiye, Shche na nashiy Ukrayini dolen'ka naspiye. CHORUS A zavziatta pratsia shchyra svoho shche dokazhe, Shche sia voli v Ukrayini pisn' huchna rozliazhe. Za Karpaty vidibiet'tsia z-homonyt' stepamy, Ukrayiny slava stane pomizh narodamy. CHORUS

Ukraine has not died, nor will her glory, nor freedom, Upon us, fellow—Ukrainians, fate shall smile once more. Our enemies will vanish, like dew in the morning sun, And we too shall rule, brothers, in a free land of our own. CHORUS Souls and bodies we'll lay down to receive our freedom, And we'll show that we, brothers, are of the Cossack nation! We'll stand together for freedom, from the Syan to the Don, We will not allow others to rule in our motherland. The Black Sea will smile and grandfather Dnieper will be joyful, For in our own Ukraine fortune shall again shine. CHORUS Our persistence and our sincere toils will be rewarded, And freedom's song will throughout all of Ukraine loudly sound. Echoing off the Carpathians, and rumbling across the steppes, Ukraine's fame and glory will be known among all nations. CHORUS

The lyrics to Ukraine's national anthem are somewhat similar to those of the Polish, Yugoslavian and Israeli anthems.
