Chervona Ruta (song)
"Chervona Ruta" ((ウクライナ語:Червона рута)) is a popular Ukrainian song written by Volodymyr Ivasyuk in 1968 and performed by many singers. The song was never formally copyrighted and due to its wide popularity is considered a Ukrainian folk song. It is named after a mythological flower, the Chervona Ruta, which if found turning a red colour by a young girl, was meant to bring happiness in love.
The song's popularity peaked with the version performed by the Ukrainian singer Sofia Rotaru. "Chervona Ruta" is popularly known in Ukrainian and other ethnic communities that were once part of the Soviet Union and likely to be sung at weddings, karaoke and other social settings.
== History ==
The song and its melody was written by a 19-year-old student of the Chernivtsi Medical Institute, Volodymyr Ivasyuk. Volodymyr found in his father's library a collection of "kolomyjkas" (author of the collection was Volodymyr Hnatyuk), a traditional folk songs/dance of Pokuttia and Prykarpattia.〔
Ivasyuk was puzzled by the mention of "Chervona Ruta" in some of the kolomyjkas. "Chervona Ruta" literally means "Red Rue", however, the flowers of the plant rue are yellow. According to the local legend, the rue turns red on the Day of Ivana Kupala for a few minutes. A girl that finds that flower will be happy in love. Chervona Ruta in the meaning of "Red Plant" or "Red Flower" is also associated with an attractive alpine plant with medicinal properties ''Rhododendron myrtifolium'', that grows in the Carpathian mountains in western Ukraine.
