U ovo adventsko

predbožićno vrijeme,kad snijeg tiho

prirodu obaspe sjeme,

ptičići lete,zrak im ziba,grane hladne

postaju im koliba.

 

Pahulje plešu,krošnje skrivaju,

krovove kuća bijelim prekrivaju.

Tišina vlada,sve je usnulo,

tek ptičja pjesma vrijeme začulo.

 

Različite note,

u srcu sklad,pričaju priču

o ljubavi, sad. miru svud,

u domovini dragoj,

u Ukrajini i svijetu blagog.

 

Neka te pjesme

nade budu,nek' čovjek čovjeku

pruži ruku svudu.

U adventu ovom,

u vjeri plam,neka ljubav vlada,

darivana nam. 

IN THIS ADVENT PRE-CHRISTMAS TIME

In this Advent,

pre-Christmas time as snow quietly falls,

nature’s seed it primes.

Little birds fly,the air their cradle,

cold branches turn to shelter so stable.

Snowflakes dance,trees conceal,

 

rooftops dressed in a white appeal.

Silence reigns,all is still,

but birds'

songs echo over vale and hill.

 

Different notesin hearts align,

telling tales of love divine.

Of peace on earth,in our dear land,

in Ukraine and the world’sgentle strand.

 

May these songs of hope always remain,

may human handsextend through pain.

In this Advent,with faith aflame,

let love prevail,a gift to reclaim.
