Borscht (also borsch, bortsch, borstch, borsh, borshch; Ukrainian: борщ) is a soup of Ukrainian origin that is popular in many Eastern and Central European countries. In most of these countries, it is made with beetroot as the main ingredient, giving it a deep reddish-purple color. In some countries, tomato is used as the main ingredient, while beetroot acts as a secondary ingredient. Other, non-beet varieties also exist, such as the tomato paste-based orange borscht and green borscht (sorrel soup).
The soup is a staple part of the local culinary heritage of many Eastern and Central European nations.
It made its way into North American cuisine and English vernacular by way of Slavic and Ashkenazi Jewish immigrants from Central and Eastern Europe. Alternative spellings are borshch and borsch.
It is called in various languages: Azerbaijani: borș, Belarusian: боршч, boršč, Czech: boršč, Estonian: borš, German: Borschtsch, Latvian: borščs, Lithuanian: barščiai, Polish: barszcz, Romanian: borș, Russian: борщ, borshch, Slovak: boršč, Turkish: Borç (due to the emigration of White Russians to Turkey after their defeat in the Russian Civil War), Ukrainian: борщ, borshch, and Yiddish: באָרשט, borsht.
Slow moving train
Slow moving bus
Slow moving plane
I've got to find a way to us
And now outside the driving rain
It keeps me in when I know I must
Find a way to get through the pain
I've got to find a way to us
Well I want you, but I want you to believe in me
My life is now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together
Your eyes they tell of the deepest places
And I need a man that I can trust
So drink up now for the celebration of finding a way to
Well I want you, but I want you to believe in me
My life is now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together
It took so long for you to see
What you wanted us to be
It took so long for you to see
Well I want you, but I want you to believe in me
My life is now or never
I want you to hold your body close to me
I feel alive together
