Song about the Towel

The Song about the Rushnyk (embroidered towel-cloth) (Ukrainian: Пісня про рушник, romanizedPisnia pro rushnyk), a song also known as Rushnychok,[1] Ballad to Mother,[1] or "My dear mother" (Ridna maty moya),[2] is a popular Ukrainian song based on a poem by Andriy Malyshko.[3][4] The poem and song recount a lyrical hero whose mother gives him a rushnyk, an embroidered cloth serving as a sort of familial talisman through one's life cycle, draped over religious icons and ritual foods, and also used for handfasting or as a prosperity blessing at weddings.[5][6][7][8]

It was set to music by composer Platon Maiboroda (a native of the Poltava Region) for the soundtrack of the 1958 Soviet film Young Years (Ukrainian: Літа молодії) where it was performed by Oleksandr Taranets.[9] The song was later popularized by Dmytro Hnatyuk, who is most often associated with this song.

The song has been translated into a number of languages and is popular within Ukraine as well as the Ukrainian diaspora, as demonstrated by the Ukrainian-Canadian group Rushnychok taking its name from the song.[13] It is dedicated to motherly love and alternately titled "Ballad to Mother."[1]

English lyrics edit

by Stepan Pasicznyk (United Kingdom)

Dearest mother of mine,
Tell me why you aren't sleeping?
Why you woke me to gaze
At the stars up above?

Did you know I was leaving?
Tell me why ... was that why you were grieving,
Was the cloth that you gave me
As a sign of your love?
