Ukrainian Knightly Poetry — Anthology

Ukrainian Knightly Poetry is a new anthology in A-ba-ba-ha-la-ma-ha's poetry series and a companion to the beloved love-poetry collection No One Ever Loved Like This. The book is in Ukrainian.

It gathers heroic, military and deeply patriotic verse by Ukrainian authors from the 12th century to the 21st — poems inspired by love for one's land and one's language. The compilers draw a fine distinction: a "knight" here is not a medieval warrior in armour but a person of honour, someone who stands upright in spirit and does not bend.

Reading these poems side by side, you hear how the same voice of dignity carries through eight centuries — from ancient chronicles to the poets of our own time. For Ukrainians abroad it is a small, powerful book to keep close: something to read aloud, quote, and give to those who matter.

Who it's for: lovers of Ukrainian poetry, readers looking for a meaningful gift, families who want their children to know the poetic tradition of courage. If you enjoyed No One Ever Loved Like This, this is its natural pair.
