Через поле України ішла Божа Мати

Через поле України ішла Божа Мати,
Там пшеничні колосочки стали Ї вітати.
Похились, поклонились – вітерець леліє.
Усі разом прошептали: "Радуйся, Маріє!"
 
Через степи України ішла Божа Мати,
Жайворонки, Божі пташки, стали Ї вітати.
Підлетіли усі вгору – вітерець леліє.
Усі радо щебетали: "Радуйся, Маріє!"
 
Через гори України ішла Божа Мати,
Там пастушки пасли вівці, стали Ї вітати.
Познімали капелюшки – вітерець леліє.
Усі радо проспівали: "Радуйся, Маріє!"
 
Через села України ішла Божа Мати,
Там в церковцях божі люди стали Ї вітати
Помолились, поклонились – вітерець леліє.
Усі радо проспівали: "Радуйся, Маріє!"
 
Через міста України ішла Божа Мати,
Вона прийшла всім сиріткам сльози повтирати.
Повтирала Вона сльози – діточки зраділи,
Що вони такі маленькі Матінку зустріли.
 
Translation

Through the Fields of Ukraine walked the Mother of God

Through the fields of Ukraine walked the Mother of God,
Where the heads of wheat had stood there, and all did they greet her.
Bowing down, before her, there kneeling - the wind, the wind caressing.
All together they had whispered: "Rejoice, O Mary!"
 
Through the Steppes of Ukraine walked the Mother of God,
The black crows, birds of God stood there, and all did they greet her.
Flying up into the heavens - the wind, the wind caressing.
All together they had chattered: " Rejoice O Mary!"
 
Through the Hills of Ukraine walked the Mother of God,
There the shephards pastured their sheep stood, and all did they greet her.
They all had then taken off their hats - the wind, the wind caressing.
All together they had cried out: "Rejoice O Mary"
 
Through the villages of Ukraine walked the Mother of God,
In the churches, godly people stood, and all they did greet her.
They had prayed, and knelt before her - the wind, the wind caressing.
All together then they had sang out; " Rejoice O Mary!"
 
Through the cities of Ukraine walked the Mother of God,
She came to all the orphans wiping away their tears.
She wiped away the tears - the children rejoiced.
That they who are so little had met their Mother.

The song: Lili Marlen (Marleen, Marlene) could it be consolidated into one site? there at least 4 versions , as sung by various people in their native languages at least 2 or 3 german, and 3 english singers, plus the translations. One site - listing the varrious performers with the translations?
