Teacher, thank you for being you!
Today you are a strong, courageous warrior,
teacher, fighting for life
you dream of times without wars,
so as not to run for cover every time.
You learn to love the Motherland passionately,
appreciate the language, native land,
you will not leave in a difficult moment,
we will not betray you, you know.
Teacher, this war is for a long time,
teacher, when will peace come?
Teacher, let’s walk together proudly
you are our best commander.
You are tired, teacher, you are afraid,
don’t get upset, take the next step,
feel confident and brave
on “excellent” your lesson has been learned.
We became adults very quickly,
we remember all your words:
to grieve so that tears are not visible,
victory will end the war.
Teacher, we are worthy of your students,
teacher, thank you for being you
thank you for the apt instructions:
We have Ukraine above all else.

Teacher
The teacher was sitting by the broken window
and cried bitterly, today it “flew” to school,
in the classroom where she taught the lesson every day,
everything is destroyed, and the ceiling has fallen to the very bottom…
She cried so quietly in the ruins of her native walls,
her life is also broken today
slowly rose from her knees,
no, cursed enemy, my spirit is not killed.
A ray of sunshine ran into the classroom from the street,
Greetings from the students: everyone is alive,
well, teacher, you live too, now is your time,
difficult tests in autumn days.
Happy holiday, teacher, unfortunately, the class is broken,
but the thirst for freedom lives in the hearts,
we are invincible, you taught us so
we will not leave you on the battlefield.
A difficult lesson leads us through life,
your science helps everyone
you brought up beautiful feelings in us,
we will win – no one has any doubts.
