Great God, the One and Only,
protect our Ukraine,
with the rays of freedom and light
overshadow her.
With the light of learning and knowledge
enlighten us, Your children;
in pure love for our land
make us grow, O God.
We pray, O only God,
protect our Ukraine,
all Your mercies and bounties
turn toward our people.
Give them freedom, give them good fortune,
give them a kind world,
grant happiness, O God, to the people,
and many, many years.
