Музика: М. Юрків

Хто бачив Майданек, той бачив ті стіни,

Що слухали пісню одного хлопчини.

Він склав її просто, як серце складало,

Співав її просто як серце співало.

Приспів:

Мамо, чи чуєш ти мене, Мамо,

Мамо, я хочу до тебе прийти,

Мамо, я рвусь до тебе, Мамо.

Але не пускають колючі дроти.

Бараки, бараки, важкі домовини.

Націлили дула у пісню хлопчини.

Чи бачиш, чи чуєш, двадцятий мій віче,

Як спалена пісня, щовечора кличе.

Люди, чи чуєте мене, люди.

Люди, щасливо йдуть до мети.

Люди, єднайтесь у вогні, люди,

Щоб світ не скувала колючі дроти.

Хто був той хлопчина - Василько чи Янек.

Хай скаже нам попіл, той сивий Майданек.

Ще й мить... ще секунда, і постріл лунає,

А хлопець вмираючи тихо співає...

Приспів

Majdanek (English Translation)

Переклад: Данило Сенторе

If you saw Majdanek, then you saw those walls

Which silently listened as a boy sang his song.

He wrote it exactly, as his heart wrote it,

He sang it exactly, as his heart sang it:

Chorus:

Momma, can you hear me cry to you, momma.

Momma, I want to come to you,

Momma, I'll break through to you, my momma.

Except that the barbed wire won't let me through.

The barracks, the barracks - our heavy coffin.

They pointed a muzzle at the boy and his singing.

Can you hear, can you see, my twentieth forum,

Where every evening he sings his burnt song:

People, please listen to me, people,

People, relieved to go to their fates.

People, unite despite the flames, people,

So the world doesn't herd us through barbed wire gates.

Who was that young boy - Vasylko or Yanek?

Let's ask the dry ashes of that grey Majdanek.

One moment... just a second, and a shot rings aloud,

And the dying young boy, keeps singing unbowed:

Chorus
