I saw the sky burning
From everywhere and the red rider
Leading in fury through the smoke
The armed and vicious horde-
The bloodthirsty crowd!
The blade sharpened by the Antichrist for
The wild feats the harpies
At his sacrilegious advent
Was given to the crossless.
Refrain: A War!!!
A war is bursting forth in Europe
Between the cross and the crescent,
Two faiths are clashing today in the face of the world-
The victory will not be measured by a sword,
But by a supreme light
Refrain: A war!!!
This day will pass away, but the memory
Of it will call upon our generation…
Let us remember our tsars,
Remember our victories
And the glory, which ascended us
To this peak and that will never die!
Let us remember Cyril and Methodius.
The saint in Ohrid, The Rila Father,
For the sake of the European nations
Let us accept the martyr wreath…
Refrain: A war!!!
