Avdiivka

Oh Avdiivka, oh Avdiivka

Know it well, now it fell

Oh Avdiivka

Longtime stronghold of Ukraine

 

Oh Avdiivka, oh Avdiivka

In despair, disarray 

My Avdiivka

Everyone left, no one remains

 

It's still hard to believe what I saw

All our forces ordered to withdraw 

From Avdiivka

In defeat, must retreat 

Oh Avdiivka

Our precious city lies in ruins today..
