Time of Tartar Invasion

(Fragment)

U KRAINA is sad for that she has no place to dwell in —
The Orda trampled the little children with their steeds,
By the Horde were the old people carried away,
The rest flung they into slavery.

Who will take Ukraine under its wing
In so evil an hour?
Her land is torn in two,
Her children are broken in four parts,
Her visage is darkened; she is wan
Because of the evil deeds of the Tartars.
