Blue and Yellow Ukraine’s Colors



Blue and yellow, are the colors of Ukraine’s flag.
Proudly on display by the people who are free.
It’s displayed and flown in every city and town,
By the citizens expressing their national pride.
Heed the President's battle cry! Rally the call to the flag,
No surrender, Allies, send us munitions but no plane for me!
Standing firm and united, from this aggression we will not run,               
Strike fear in the enemy and hold fast to our resolve,
Your enemies falsely narrate your impact on their morale.
The flag is more than a symbol and banner,
From flag poles and masts, it's so proudly flown,
Fluttering in the wind or being still in the calmness.
Bringing the citizens together in solidarity,
The blue and yellow flag is the unifier across the land,  
Federally, provincially, each region, the colors are flown,
In every city, town, arenas, and sports grounds.
Placing a hand on their heart, face their flag with pride,
And in rousing chorus sing ‘Ukraine Has Not Yet Perished’.
