Only You, Yourself

Hey, You, Patriots of Ukraine,
willing to sacrifice
their lives 
for their beloved country!
Except folks all around the world,
not any so-called leaders 
of the developed countries
care whatever happens there, 
cause you are left alone 
just before a hound 
as a hare,
Even if you feel 
so much pain
and grief,
nothing should frighten you
beyond belief;
I believe you have the power
to shake up the whole Russia,
one of which is the chief general
was dismissed from his post
and if you keep fighting
be sure Russia will pay a higher cost;
However, there is a harsh reality
that you should deal with,
And no need to mention,
It is only you
who can put out the whole fire
in your country 
with the strength you have
but unfortunately
with your own tears
