When I visited\u00a0Josyf Cardinal Slipyj school in February, it was a dream experience<\/a> in so many ways.<\/p>\n

The Grade 5 students had prepared a wonderful surprise. Their music teacher had taught them the Kolysanka (lullaby) from the sheet music that I had posted on my website last September<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I was so moved by their performance that I asked if they could record it so I could post it here. Just today, I got an email from Iwona Daciuk, the library technician, with this early Ukrainian Easter gift.<\/p>\n

You can listen to the grade 5 students singing here:<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/www.calla.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Kolusonka-Yosyp-Slipuy-Dity.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n

Here are the notes:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And the English translation:
\nLittle cradle, little cradle
\nRock our little baby,
\nSo she\u2019ll sleep and not cry
\nSo she\u2019ll grow and nothing hurt her \u2013
\nNot her head nor her whole body.<\/p>\n

Thank you, Cornelia Bilinsky, who found the music and translated the lullaby!<\/p>\n

Oh, and here is a letter written by the grade 7 students. Did I mention that this was a dream visit? A very memorable school visit!<\/p>\n
