Poem by Alek Rybczynski translated from Polish
We live in the frontline zone, we live on the border of heaven and hell;
Torn by the ravenous fangs of war's prophets;
We refuse the march with a rifle on our backs;
And let the whispers of evil slip past our ears;
We try to save dignity and remember the places and people;
Who paused in our life with a tiny flame of beauty.
We cry out for reinforcements;
Through decimated, bleeding ranks;
Calling to halt weapon transports;
