To make you feel real Ukrainian on the 26^nd and on the 27^rd of January, 2019 you may have the lyrics of Ukrainian song “A do mene Yakiv prykhodyv” with you (the lyrics are written in transliteration)

A do mene Yakiv prykhodyv,
Korobochku rakiv prynosyv!
A ya tii raky zabrala,
A Yakova z khaty prohnala:

“Idy, idy, Yakove, z khaty,
Bo na pechi batko ta maty,
A v zapichku batkovi dity,
Nide tebe, Yakove, dity”.

Ne pishov zhe Yakiv dodomu
Ta zaliz u khyzhku v solomu,
A sobaky havkaty staly,
Poky batko y maty ne vstaly.

Narobyly halasu dity
Tak, shcho nudno v khati sydity,
Ya zabrala raky u mysku,
Sama pishla spaty u khyzhku.

Koly tudy y batko prykhodiat
I u mystsi raky znakhodiat:
“Khto z toboiu tut zhenykhavsia
I khto prynis raky? Pryznaisia!”.

Poky mene batko pytavsia,
A mii Yakiv z khyzhky ubravsia —
Cherez tyn ta cherez horody,
Narobyvshy batkovi shkody.

“Ne prykhod zhe, Yakove, nichchiu,
Bo bude storozha pid pichchiu…
Mene batko y maty vse laiut,
A shcho tebe niiak ne piimaiut…”
