I cannot think of a better time to remind everyone that the piece commonly known as the "Ukrainian Bell Carol" was not originally a Christmas song, and its actual meaning in Ukrainian is so much more interesting than Peter Wilhousky's later English adaptation. Here is an excellent performance and background. Be sure to read the translation.

Posting this now a third time to banish all typos.

@voltronic That is such a beautiful piece of music, I just love the harmonies and it’s a thrill anytime to be in a group singing it.

The translation is lovely! Thanks for sharing.
