An anti-Soviet song by Ukrainians

[edit]

I've discovered a Ukrainians song Go to death, Empire with melody from the national anthem of Soviet Union, but the lyric looks anti-Soviet. Who know about its origin? You can hear this song here. -- Great Brightstar (talk) 09:04, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The lyrics + a translation to English can be found here. The text is ascribed to Orest Lyutyy, which is the stage name of Antin Dmytrovych Mukharskyy, on whom the Ukrainian Wikipedia has an article. It was posted on YouTube on 1 April 2014, shortly after the outbreak of the Russo-Ukrainian War in late February 2014.  --Lambiam 22:44, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
