Singer Alfonso Moscato, from the island of Sicily in Italy, has released the song "L'enigma — Загадка" in both Ukrainian and Italian languages. The song was created in collaboration with Ukrainian artist Olga Iermak, who moved to the Sicilian city of Palermo due to the war.
"This war must make everyone understand that freedom is not just a right but a moral duty, and that behind every right stands a duty that guarantees its existence. If Europe wants to exist, it must help Ukraine free itself from the oppression of the libericidal regime," says Alfonso.
"The song is bilingual because language is greater than us and encompasses our life," continues the singer. "A bilingual song is created for two nations that now live in two different realities but are united by the desire to live in a common home."
The singer, who has three children, has decided to donate all proceeds from plays of "L'enigma — Загадка" to the "Voices of Children" foundation. This foundation cares for the children of Ukraine who have been affected by the war.
A co-author of the song is the Ukrainian poet Midna (Olga Iermak), who currently lives in Italy because of the war in Ukraine. The track is based on the poem "Pole" ("Field") from Midna's "Stosonce" collection (2014).
"It seems to me that the trace we leave in the memory of children, grows along with them. Every little discovery they make with our support, every new thought, and awareness of connections shape their future destinies," shared Olga.
Love sprouts sooner or later. And what you sow is what you reap: conscious individuals, a healthy society, high values. I don't know what could be a better meaning of human existence.
The song is available on Bandcamp and other music platforms.
