Everyone says school's quite thrilling
You make the first steps on your own.
But I'm about to forget this feeling,
My best school years were stolen.
It all turned into memories and sigthing
That come to mind, but fast:
My first school year, the early writing
My lovely teacher smiling from the past.
Now we only visit school sometimes,
We run to the shelters and hide for hours.
If only we could enjoy our classes,
Enjoy this time of ours.
But I believe that happy days
Will break through the pain.
The war will end,
The air raids will stop forever,
And our classrooms will be full of kids again.
My school, I'll come. I love you, Fedir
