DESCRIPTION:
ABKHAZIA

...dedicated to hundreds of thousands of refugees, those, who cannot return home, to their motherland, Abkhazia

1. The moment's not so far away, as my sweet dream comes true
And, oh, my sunlit native land, I shall come back to you
That sun, that spirit of the sea I soaked up, still a child
I'll wipe the tear, "My town, so dear, it sure has been a while",
"Sukhumi, you recall me", - I will sigh

And suddenly the breeze will turn the pages of my life
My neighborhood, my friends, my home will spring before my eyes
Those mountain ridges, azure sea and regal palm tree crowns
I swear, I've never seen such grace, though I've been all around
This kind of beauty's nowhere to be found

CHORUS:
My gorgeous land, you're truly heaven's art -- Abkhazia
My homeland's diamond, Georgia's priceless part -- Abkhazia
The time is near -- those carrion crows and clouds will soon be gone
And in your open arms you'll welcome back your native sons
You'll welcome darling daughters, you and I will too return,
To your embrace accept me my sweet home -- Abkhazia.

2. There was a time when honor, joy and love were reigning here
But ancient writings were destroyed -- to Georgian soul so dear
There's not a chance we won't reclaim that family warmth and heart
For myriads of the displaced -- from you they've been apart
You're in our soul, although we're still apart

3. I clearly see when we're back home -- our father's sacred place
To peace and to prosperity the glasses will be raised
But those who'd, stabbed their brother's back -- how could they do such crime --
May they be doomed to infamy, forever, for all time,
To Cains -- the oblivion for all time!

CHORUS:
My gorgeous land, you're truly heaven's art -- Abkhazia
My homeland's diamond, Georgia's precious part -- Abkhazia
It won't be long -- those carrion crows and dark clouds will be gone
And in your open arms you'll welcome back your native sons
You'll welcome darling daughters, you and I will too return,
To your embrace accept me my sweet home -- Abkhazia.
Just wait for me, I'll soon be back, sweet home -- Abkhazia
