Hello my dear friends.ππ·ππ
You know that feeling when you can't get a melody out of your head and you have to sing it all the time?πΆ
I like one melody that I would like to tell you about today.π
This lullaby was written by a Ukrainian. πΊπ¦ He was almost as prominent as Michael Jackson in his day.βοΈ Fans sang his songs, dressed in costumes in the style of his team, filled the halls where he performed. And he performed all over the world. π
Later, the second Ukrainian living in the USA πΊπΈ created his own music, which was in the blues style but with Ukrainian motifs. πΊπ¦
The first Ukrainian is Borys Lyatoshynskyi and his lullaby "Oi hodytβ son".
The second Ukrainian is George Gershwin and his "Clary's Lullaby".
Both pieces are lullabies and have similar melodies. πΆ This melody is considered an ancient melody of Ukrainiansππ and is very popular thanks to two beautiful composers who glorified Ukrainian beauty throughout the world.πππ
Personally, I really like to sing this lullaby in Ukrainian for my daughter and just for my soul. β€οΈ
And now I should remember it better because soon I will have to sing it more often. Because the little heart of another child is beating inside me. π€°π»I will soon become a mother for the second time.πΆπ»
Today I'm going to post my guitar TABs,πΈ as always I've made it very simple and easy for beginners to follow. π
And I would really like you to listen to this melody performed by the outstanding Ukrainian artist Nina Matvienko.

The text talks about a dialogue between two characters - Dream and Sleep.π€ They wanted to make a decision about where to spend the night.π They chose a house with a small child and a purring cat.πββ¬ They agreed to rock the baby and put the cat to sleep so that everyone would sleep sweetly and peacefully all night.π΄ There is so much lack of peaceful nights in Ukraine today...π Play this melody on the guitar and pray for Ukrainian π§πΆπ»πππ
