Context: “Mother Anarchy Loves Her Sons” (Анархия-мама сынов своих любит) is a revolutionary song associated with the anarchist insurgents who fought in southeastern Ukraine during the Ukrainian struggle for independence and self-determination around 1918–1921.

It is commonly described as the unofficial anthem of the Makhnovist “Black Army,” reportedly written in 1919 by Nestor Makhno, and reflects the movement’s militant struggle against forces, whether Red or White, that sought to reimpose centralized state control.

**Lyrics:**

Our horses are running mile after mile,
Because Freedom is priceless.
Through the slot of my machine gun
I'm looking for the enemy in the dust.

Mother Anarchy loves her sons,
Mother Anarchy is not for sale
We'll wait for the enemy, with lead we'll destroy them
Mother Anarchy is with us!

I'll put my knife into the fire
And then I'll sneak closer.
Nothing to be sorry for into the fight,
Nothing to be sad about.

Mother Anarchy loves her sons
Mother Anarchy is not for sale
We'll wait for the enemy, with lead we'll destroy them
Mother Anarchy is with us!

The only thing that makes me happy is the dead one,
killed by the strength of my friend.
The only thing I can see and remain calm
Is the dead enemy.

Mother Anarchy loves her sons
Mother Anarchy is not for sale.
We'll wait for the enemy, with lead we'll destroy them
Mother Anarchy is with us!

Mother Anarchy loves her sons,
Mother Anarchy is not for sale.
We'll wait for the enemy, with lead we'll destroy them
Mother Anarchy is with us!
We'll wait for the enemy, with lead we'll destroy them
Mother Anarchy is with us!
We'll wait for the enemy, with lead we'll destroy them

Mother Anarchy is with us!
Mother Anarchy is with us!
Mother Anarchy is with us!
Mother Anarchy is with us!
