Forgive Me, Yugoslavia

For that night under the shower of lead,
For not being by the side of your bed,
Forgive me, Yugoslavia, my sister and friend!
For the death under the spring skies,
For not saving you from demise,
Forgive me, Yugoslavia, my sister and friend!

Original poem in Russian by Olga Zhuravleva

To commemorate the tragedy of Yugoslavia, bombed by NATO on March 24, 1999
