Many people recognize this composition

For example it's known as a #Christmas carol, "Carol of the Bells" in the USA

But the original title is "#Shchedryk"

Composed in #Ukraine by Mykola Leontovych about 110 years ago

The original lyrics tell a story of a swallow flying into a household at #NewYears. To sing of the wealth that will come in Springtime

Here it is symbolically performed in the machine hall of a thermal power plant destroyed by Russian strikes
