No more bullets fly in Kyiv,
On the burnt and black Maidan,
The barricades can now come down,
For the battle is now won.
Berkut no longer threatens,
One hundred dead, no more,
Through midnight gates at Nivky Station
run teenage revolutionaries, raising Kyiv to the ground
with snare drum steps, violin tremolos shout,
They cannot stop us!
