Eternal memory!!!

Life is unbearable without you, my dear son. Everything went to waste around. Pain and tears, sadness and torment. Eternal memory to you! I love you!

The mother was seeing her son off To the war from the house. But she didn't know, she didn't think, How it would meet. She hugged, kissed, She wept into a handkerchief, But as if with a sharp blade Something pierced her heart. He flew like a swan, Good God gave him wings, Screamed from the high sky, So that she would forgive him. He flew away and remained In the heavenly eternity. It was poured with abundant rain, Simply - he was honest. As if tears, those drops Falled from the sky. They came relatives, friends have come To see you off. They bowed their heads, They knelt down, Flowers fell at their feet, Trumpets played sadly. The mother escorted her son To protect the land, But he returned in his home To his native house. For his country, for his native land He fell in a clean field, So that mother Ukraine lived. Glory be to you, heroes!
