Moonlight brings the nightingale
Sweet song in the darkest hour Sing dear heart, sing through the night Moonlight holds the pain and fear Sweet chords for a wakeful tear Beat dear heart, beat through the night May you hear the nightingale May you hold an orphan child Weep dear heart, weep through the night Baby will spread angel wings Rise free as a nightingale Fly dear heart, fly through the night Grow peace in the heart of men Sing now, never fight again Sing dear hearts, sing through the night |
Hope comes with the nightingale
Sweet song in the darkest hour Peace, dear heart, peace through the night Hope comes with the nightingale Sweet song in the darkest hour Peace in Ukraine once again |
