Poem on Ukraine by Tuncay Gary

 



Taras Shevchenko

 By Tuncay Gary




 

 Ukraine is in Berlin

flag waving

we welcome

incoming

 

For how much longer

 

Blue yellow

decorates the city

in the spring trend

and the unsuspecting sing along

 

Glory of Ukraine

Slava Ukrayini

Glory of Ukraine

 

“It was all about the hearts,

who marched and shouted loudly

<<Honour to Ukraine, honor to the Hetmanate>>”

wrote Vsevolod Petriv

before coming to Germany

died of malnutrition in the camp

 

Blue yellow

the flowers are blooming

on the balconies

and in meadows

in Berlin

far from Ukraine

 

--Berlin, May 02, 2022
