ᴮᵉⁿ ᴿᵒʸᶜᵉVOTE IN THE PRIMARIESDec 20

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

Gosh… that brought tears to my eyes… such a beautiful performance of a loved classic… but it’s the guys in the hard hats & the ruined setting that did it. 🙏🏻

Same here, the destruction with the tiny flame trying to hold on. There is still light, as I cried way back in 2013. It is dark, but there is still light. Night has fallen, but it came out of light and will give birth to light.
