Technique: drawing on a black sheet with crayons. Little secrets of grattography

Scratch(from the French Gratter - scrape, scratch) is a method of making a drawing by scratching paper or cardboard filled with ink or black gouache with a sharp tool.

Another name for the technique is waxography, sometimes also called scratchy. Drawings made using the grattage technique are distinguished by the contrast of white lines and a black background, and are similar to engravings. And if you first paint a sheet of paper in different colors, the drawing will turn out to be very interesting and original.

Do you want to create your own painting using the grattage technique? Let's try!

Flower arrangement using grattage technique

For work you will need:

  • two sheets of paper (important: one thick (for example, white cardboard - it will be a canvas for future work), and one regular one - for a sketch drawing),
  • pencil;
  • a pen that has already stopped writing;
  • gouache set;
  • brush;
  • black ink or black gouache;
  • candle.

1. Take a thick sheet of paper (or white cardboard) and mark places on it with chaotic planes, which we will then paint in different colors.

The planes can be of any shape: in the form of spots, like mine, or in the form of circles or stripes. They can have clear contours, or smoothly flow from one color to another. It all depends on your imagination.

2. Once the planes are marked, paint them in different colors. Choose your own color scheme. It can be only warm, or only cool colors, or all the colors of the rainbow, like mine. When all the paper is painted, leave it to dry completely.

Little advice: use more light and bright colors, they make a good contrast with black.

3. If the paint has dried, you can safely move on to rubbing the paper. Take any unnecessary candle and generously rub the paper with it. It is important that the wax layer is thick, then scratching the design will be much easier. If you have a white coating, as in the photo, then everything is fine. But before moving on to the next step, check that all surfaces are well waxed.

4. At this stage, cover the paper with black ink or gouache. If you cover the surface with black ink, you should first dissolve it with soap. This will allow the mascara to adhere better to the wax surface. We paint the paper tightly, leaving no white spots or streaks. We leave it until it dries completely, and at that time we proceed to the next stage.

5. While the blank for the sketch dries is drying, let’s prepare a sketch of our future creation. I chose a flower arrangement. To begin with, we will use circles to designate the locations of future flowers and draw lines of the stems.

6. On the designated planes we draw a variety of fabulous flowers. You can come up with their shape, size, leaves yourself. Let your flowers be original, fantastic - this will give the drawing individuality. Draw thick stems.

7. Add fairy-tale leaves to the flowers, and also add background details: butterflies, bubbles and any other decorations.

8. The sketch of the painting is ready. All that remains is to transfer it to the prepared black canvas. How to do it? Very simple.

Place the paper from the sketches evenly on top of the black paper so that the corners of the leaves match. Take a pen that has already stopped writing and draw the outlines of the sketch, pressing a little. This method will help you make an imprint of the sketch on black paper. Check that you have traced all the contours. When everything is ready, remove the sheet and you will see that the outlines of the drawing have been transferred to the paper, as shown in the photo.

9. Now we can move on to the fun part! Start scratching the resulting contours with a pen that does not write, or with a sharp stick. If the layer of wax under the paint is thick, you will see how easily and pleasantly the design scratches.

By creating a drawing using the grattage technique, you will see how interesting it is to watch how different colors appear under the paint, and the flower takes on a fabulous coloring.

10. Scratch all the outlines to the very end. Then you will get a drawing like mine. You can leave it like that, it’s already wonderful. You can also add various ornaments and shading for a more original look.

11. At this stage, add uniqueness to the drawing using various shading and ornaments. Some parts can be completely scratched. If desired, add grass and some background elements. It all depends on your imagination.

Congratulations, the drawing is ready! I decided to make this composition colored, so first I covered a sheet of paper with colored spots. You can also make black and white drawings. In this case, the sheet of paper is not covered with paints, but is immediately rubbed with a candle, and then with black ink or gouache.

Black and white grattages are similar to engravings and look incredible. Don't be afraid to imagine and experiment. Also try to draw without a preliminary sketch, immediately making scratches on the finished canvas. This will perfectly develop your imagination!

Master class by Marina Kolbina about drawing in grattage technique.

Scratch or grattography(from the French Gratter - scrape, scratch) - a graphic design that is made by scratching wax with a sharp instrument.

The basis is paper or cardboard filled with ink.

This technique is often used in art schools and children's drawing studios. What’s remarkable is that many people seem to have heard about it, but not everyone has tried it, and it was completely in vain. Because work done using this technique looks very good. They have some kind of mystery, volume, each one turns out to be unique.

Drawing using scratch technique

For drawing, take a sheet of very thick paper, preferably cardboard. You can leave it white, then the scratched areas will be white, and the resulting work will be black and white. More often, a sheet of paper or cardboard is randomly colored, this is especially preferable for beginners. More experienced artists make a preliminary drawing on paper, transfer it to cardboard, and then paint it in the desired colors. It is necessary to indicate in advance on the back side of the cardboard where the top and where the bottom of the drawing is, so that later you do not make a mistake when scratching when the entire drawing is filled with black.

Usually watercolors, gouache or acrylic are used. It is acceptable to use oil or wax pastels for a colored background. When the paint has dried, you should begin grouting with wax or paraffin. A prerequisite for quality work will be how thoroughly and conscientiously every millimeter of the sheet is rubbed. It's easy to check with light to see if there are any gaps.

The next step after grouting is applying black paint. It can be black ink, gouache or black acrylic. If you use mascara, you need to prepare regular or liquid soap for work, and periodically dip the brush in soapy water. If it is gouache, then mix it with liquid soap in a separate jar. This is done in order to evenly apply mascara or gouache and avoid it from rolling off the greasy surface of wax or paraffin.


You should wait until the paint dries well; under no circumstances should you dry it near heating appliances, otherwise the wax will melt, be absorbed into the paper or the top layer of cardboard, and it will be impossible to scratch it.

The next stage is to re-apply the same pattern, only now on a black, dried background. You need to trace the drawing with a ballpoint pen. As you work, the image will be pressed onto a soft wax surface. Remove the leaf with the circled pattern. As a result, a faded image will appear on a black background. Everything must match both in color and pattern. Now all that remains is to scratch, scrape or correct, and apply more touches where necessary. If there was no need for a preliminary drawing from the beginning, then you can immediately scratch what you want and what you had in mind on the dried black background. The main thing is to determine which parts of the picture should remain black.

The tool for scratching wax can be a knitting needle, a used ballpoint pen, a scalpel or a wooden manicure stick for treating nails. Since the whole procedure is quite messy, you should cover the table with newspapers, roll up your sleeves, and place a piece of paper under the hand with which you are scratching. Periodically, gently pour the scraped wax onto the newspaper.

The painting using the grattage technique is ready, you can put it in a frame and hang it on the wall.

Thanks to Marina for the master class, now you will definitely be able to draw using this interesting technique - grattography.

Scratching is a convenient and simple drawing technique.

In this case, a special method of applying a design is used by scratching the top dried layer of paint applied to the cardboard with a sharp object. The word "Grattage" has French roots and literally means "scrape". This drawing technique has other names, for example, waxography or scratching.

From this article you will learn

A way to depict a drawing for any age

Any child can learn to draw, which depends little on his natural capabilities and abilities. First of all, you need to approach the learning process correctly. This is the task of adults: to develop the child’s creative potential. If you want to interest a novice artist, introduce him to unconventional drawing techniques.

One of these methods is grattage. This drawing technique can be introduced to children of any age, as it is convenient and interesting to perform. For younger children, the basis for drawing is done by adults; older children can do it independently.

The whole process is divided into three main stages. Each of them will be interesting for children. Such activities develop children’s imagination, attention, perseverance, and the ability to finish what they start.

Working on drawings allows children to learn about the world around them and expand their horizons; the child accelerates the development of fine motor skills and attentiveness several times. Scratching is a good way for older children to express themselves and develop intellectual capabilities.

Preparatory stages of drawing

Before you start using the grating technique, you need to prepare your equipment. For the lesson you will need:

  • cardboard (preferably white);
  • candle or wax;
  • brush (preferably thick natural);
  • wax crayons;
  • ink or gouache;
  • a piece of foam rubber;
  • sharp object (toothpicks, crochet hook, pen with out of paste).

The first stage of drawing is performed by the child. Using colored crayons or paints, the cardboard is painted over. This can be done in one color, or you can decorate it with multi-colored spots. In many ways, the choice of color and the number of spots depends on what kind of pattern will be scratched out.

Therefore, the final option should be considered at the initial stage. It is advisable to choose contrasting and bright colors that will later harmonize with black. If you take colored cardboard at this stage, then this drawing stage can be omitted, since the base already has the required shade.

You can skip this step, and then the result will be a black and white image, which also looks very beautiful.

The next step in the grattage technique is coating the painted cardboard with wax. To do this, take an ordinary candle or a piece of paraffin (wax) and rub the entire surface. It is very important to perform this action carefully, and this must be monitored.

The last preparatory stage is applying gouache to the wax layer. There is a little secret here that allows the paint to absorb well and in the future not reach out to the young artist’s hand and stain it. In a separate bowl, dilute the required amount of gouache with shampoo or soapy water.

Apply the prepared paint with a wide brush in one direction. Gouache may smudge. If this happens, then after the first layer has dried, a second one is applied.

Even if the preparatory processes are carried out by adults, it is very important for children to explain what is being done and why, so that later they themselves can easily and correctly make the basis for a drawing made using the grattage technique.

Drawing

This is the third and final stage. Here the child scratches with any sharp object the design that was originally intended for him. You can select any object as an image tool:

  • Sushi sticks. To draw with them, one end must be sharpened. They are light and comfortable for children's hands.
  • An ordinary ballpoint pen is a more convenient item for children, so it can be used for drawing. The scratching technique involves using a pen with the paste running out. Then there will be no traces left, and the drawing will have the necessary tones.
  • Toothpicks can be used, but for small children's hands they are not a very convenient object for drawings made using the scratchtatting technique.
  • Knitting needles are also suitable for older children, as the metal surface of this item can slip in the hands and is not very comfortable to use.

The grattage technique involves two types of image application. You can make the drawing yourself by inventing it and scratching it out. This develops the baby’s imagination very well. He simply draws what he wants and his existing skills allow.

You can also use a ready-made sketch. To do this, a drawing is prepared on a sheet of paper. This can be done by both adults and children.

After preparation, the sheet with the design is placed on the finished base, secured with paper clips, and the image is applied with a pen, lightly pressing along the contours of the sketch. As a result, outlines become visible on the cardboard, along which the child scratches out the drawing.

Thus, the child gets a picture that looks like an engraving and looks very impressive.

For children, the grattage technique is very interesting and useful, so it is worth teaching them this method of depiction.

Modern creativity and handicrafts offer a lot of very interesting and unusual techniques, including the technique when pictures are painted by scratching on wax. This technique of drawing grattage, or waxography, is called. The result of such work is similar to an engraving.

Scratch - what is it?

What is the grattage drawing technique? The literal translation of this term is “scratch” (which comes from the French verb gratter, translated “to scratch”). Scratching is essentially a type of engraving. True, the opinions of various artists differ on this matter. If we take as an engraving any image obtained by applying strokes without the presence of paint, then grattage is a typical engraving. Just like any pencil drawing.

If we take as engraving only what is applied to a special hard surface (such as wood or metal), then drawing using the grattage technique is a kind of imitation of engraving made on cardboard or very thick paper. Drawings using this technique are made with a slightly sharp object (such as a pen, a special chisel, a pointed stick) on a surface previously prepared for the painting.

Stages of creating a masterpiece using the grattage technique. Step one - how to choose an engraving base

To create a masterpiece using such an interesting technique, you first need to prepare cardboard or a sheet of thick paper (whatman paper can be used). Next, the artist has several options.

Option one is to leave the paper just white.

Option two is to make this base colored by applying watercolors to it in a creative manner.

Option three is to thoroughly paint over the cardboard with regular wax crayons. You can use one color, or you can sketch out multi-colored spots and stripes (you will need a fairly thick layer), without leaving empty spots.

Option four - you can use colored cardboard as a base.

Option five is to prepare cardboard with a finished drawing on it. For example, a piece of a box of chocolates or a notebook cover, which allows you to try scratching at home, with a minimum of materials on hand.

Step two - applying wax

Having prepared the base, you need to apply wax to it. This can also be done in various ways.

Option one - rub into the base

Option two is to grate the candle into a container and place it in a water bath. Once the wax has melted, apply the wax to the prepared cardboard using a small brush.

Option three is to light it (this is a small tablet candle) and draw wax onto a brush directly from the candle, transferring it to the cardboard.

If you previously applied the wax step to the base, you need to skip the step. True, if the application of crayons seemed uneven to you, this can be corrected at this stage. Try to improve the situation a little with a solvent (for example, take turpentine).

It is precisely due to the use of such materials that scratch paper is perfect for children's development. But professional craftsmen use chalk, special clay, and egg yolk instead of wax. But these materials are still for those who have long known what the grattage drawing technique is; in kindergarten, the use of such basics is inappropriate.

Step three - add color

At this stage, you need to paint over the applied layer of wax. And there may be options here. You can do this using ordinary mascara. Perhaps during the process it will roll down the surface of the wax, then you will have to be patient and apply several layers. There is also the option of applying mascara with a cotton swab or sponge.

Another option for painting the surface is using gouache. The paint can be of absolutely any color, and it can also be applied in spots. True, this method is only good when the artist has a clear idea of ​​the finished result. This type of engraving will be less durable, and during the work the gouache smudges and stains everything around.

And finally, the third option - the grattage drawing technique also involves the use of True, and there are subtleties here - as a rule, acrylic hardens into a film, and it is possible to scratch with small irregularities, just as polyethylene is scratched. You need to be extremely careful with this type of coating. By the way, it is better to cover the work surface and the floor around the table, otherwise all surfaces will be strewn with small ink-wax crumbs.

Step four - the magic of engraving appearance

This is where the real magic begins. Here you will need any slightly pointed object, for example, a knitting needle, a nail, a toothpick, a disposable fork (which is great for drawing sea waves), etc. By the way, the simplest option is a ballpoint pen that has stopped writing. And let's start creating! Of course, professional artists, for whom the scratching technique is not new, use special cutters (cutters), but for amateurs and beginners, the listed available tools will be sufficient. You will scratch the top layer of paint, and white (or colored, if the base was previously painted over) space will appear in the scratches. Naturally, you can scratch not only dots, lines or stripes, you can also remove, if necessary, entire sections of the paint layer, drawing, for example, flower petals.

By the way, there is also a variant of the reverse scratching technique - scratching dark cardboard, which is covered with light paint on top.

If gouache (or ink) rolls off from the previous layer treated with wax crayons or pencils, you can first degrease the base with talc (just sprinkle on top and wipe with a cotton pad).

To prevent the gouache from staining your hands when scratching out the design, add a little PVA to the paint before applying it and mix well. Or, when drawing, place a piece of clean paper under your hand, which is resting on the sheet.

And if you want to find out what scratch paper is and try to transfer any drawing from an album, book, or magazine onto your sheet of paper, know that it is very easy to do. First transfer the drawing onto tracing paper, and then from the tracing paper, pressing lightly, apply a light outline of your drawing onto a sheet prepared in advance for scratching. And only after that scratch it properly.

(Scratch)

In preschool age, the child’s learning process occurs in an emotional and practical way. The closest and most natural activities for a preschooler are play, communication with adults and peers, object-based, visual activities. It is in these types of activities that intensive intellectual, emotional and personal development and the ability for logical thinking, self-control, and creative imagination occur.

The development of creativity is one of the main tasks of preschool education. The concept of preschool education places special emphasis on this. Currently, a broad approach to the problem is needed, understanding it as the development of the creative foundations of personality in different spheres of a child’s life: in relation to the natural world, objects, the world of people, in relation to oneself (i.e. creative self-development).

Great potential for revealing children's creativity lies in the visual activities of preschoolers.

The joy of creativity becomes much more accessible to children when they learn to draw and know that there are special techniques with which they can solve difficulties in drawing.

Drawing in kindergarten, just like the activity of an artist, includes a certain technique that a child needs to master so that he can freely use it when solving various problems, and most fully express his impressions of the environment in a drawing.

The use of non-traditional drawing techniques makes the learning process interesting and entertaining, creates a cheerful working mood in children, and makes it easier to overcome difficulties in mastering program material. I use various non-traditional techniques in drawing with children (finger painting, hand printing, poking, drawing with signets, tamponing, monotype, plasticine painting, scratch paper, batik).

Each of these techniques is a small game. Their use allows children to: feel more relaxed, bolder, more spontaneous, develop their imagination, and give complete freedom for self-expression. Develops fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and creativity. Improves the ability to use graphic means of expression: line, stroke, contrast to convey one’s impressions. Fosters interest in unconventional drawing. Stimulates activity and initiative in coming up with the content of the image.

Children really like to draw using the scratch technique.

The “scratch” technique is also called “tsap-scratch” or “graffito”. The drawing is highlighted by scratching with a pen or sharp instrument on paper or cardboard filled with ink (to prevent it from spreading, you need to add a little detergent or shampoo, just a few drops). The word comes from the French gratter - to scrape, scratch, so another name for the technique is the scratching technique. I usually use thick paper and paint it with gouache. You can take colored cardboard with a ready-made colorful pattern, then you can limit yourself to an ordinary wax candle (not colored). Then, using a wide brush or sponge, apply a layer of mascara to the surface. When it dries, use a sharp object - a plastic fork, a toothpick - to scratch a pattern of thin white or colored lines onto the finished background.

Types of scratching techniques using different tools (stack, toothpick, sharp stick, end of a brush, rod)

Wonderful non-standard drawing technique - grattage- is interesting to all children - regardless of age - the only difference is that I prepare the starting material for the kids, and the older ones can do everything on their own, since the technique is simple - just three steps.

All the steps in preparing a worksheet for work are also interesting because they instill in the child a sense of consistency, attention, and perseverance. Drawing on a sheet of paper that has already been prepared is actually like magic: the child will be amazed to see how bright, contrasting lines and strokes appear on a graphite-black background.

Work in the grattage technique goes through several stages:

Stage 1: priming the sheet with wax (since this work is complex, the teacher carries out the priming. Usually we take thick paper, shading with a thick layer of colored wax crayons. You can take colorful cardboard with a ready-made variegated pattern, then you can limit yourself to an ordinary wax candle (not colored) .

Stage 2: Then, using a wide brush or sponge, apply a layer of mascara to the surface. You can, of course, use gouache, but it gets dirty after drying. You can also use black acrylic paints. The primer is finished.

Stage 3: Using a sharp object, scratch the design. A pattern of thin white or colored strokes is formed on a black background.

Working with the “Scratching” technique requires a lot of effort, so I regularly do finger exercises before drawing, which develops the fine muscles of the fingers.

Stages of working with children.

Stage 1: Getting to know each other.

I introduce children to the grattage technique, tell them what it is, and show them works done using this technique and the graffiti technique.

The scratch technique has powerful graphic characteristics. I would like to draw your attention to what means of expression are most often used in this technique.
(line, stroke, spot, contrast).

Stage 2: Preparatory.

To develop accuracy and confidence in hand movement, children perform shading (parallel lines in a certain direction, straight lines, oblique lines, zigzags, wavy lines). Games contribute to this.

The child’s task is to connect houses of the same color and shape with precise straight lines. The child first draws a line simply with his finger, choosing a direction, then with a felt-tip pen. When drawing lines, children accompany the actions with the words “From house to house.”

Sample tasks.

I suggest doing a few simple exercises using a simple pencil on a regular sheet of paper using the graffiti technique; the children copy the images after the adults. Such games and exercises make it easier to master the program material in the future.

The main activity of preschool age is play. The use of didactic games and game exercises makes it easier to overcome difficulties in mastering program material.

Goal: development of attention, motor coordination.

Progress of the game: the teacher demonstrates diagram cards depicting types of movements. The children repeat it.

Introduction to pictograms, sketch

Main stage

The drawing is scratched with a sharp stick. First, children draw objects, and then convey the stories. I explain to the children that it is better to draw any line to the end in one movement, then it will be expressive and clear.

What can you depict?

The landscapes are very beautiful: winter, autumn, rural, as well as a night city, fireworks, dawn and sunset. Works on the themes of space, the underwater kingdom, and fantastic plots look unusual.

Of course, I remind you about safety precautions. It must be observed: work carefully, do not inject yourself or hurt those sitting.

To remove mascara shavings when working, you need to use a dry cloth. It is more convenient to work at easels, then the ink removed from the sheet with a stick will fall down onto the easel stand without interfering with the creation of the image.

In the process of my work I use the following methods and techniques:

teaching methods:

  • informational;
  • research;
  • practical;

The information method includes the following techniques:

  • examination;
  • observation;
  • excursion;
  • example of a teacher;
  • teacher demonstration.

The verbal method includes:

  • conversation;
  • story, art history story;
  • use of teacher samples;
  • artistic word.

Practical method is a method aimed at consolidating children’s knowledge and skills. This is a method of exercises that bring skills to automaticity. It includes:

  • reception of repetition;
  • work on drafts;
  • performing form-building movements with the hand.

The heuristic method is aimed at demonstrating independence at some point during the lesson, i.e. The teacher invites the child to do some of the work independently.

The research method is aimed at developing in children not only independence, but also imagination and creativity. The teacher suggests doing not just any part, but all the work independently. Creative abilities will develop if the following conditions are taken into account:

1. Creating a variety and richness of impressions received by children in preschool institutions and at home, in the process of systematic observations and perception of works of fine art.

2. Development of an atmosphere of creativity (creating a state of “awakenedness” of feelings and imagination.)

3. Encouraging children to be creative by setting interesting, varied creative tasks.

4. Motivation for the task.

5. Taking into account the individual interests, inclinations and abilities of children.

6. Creating an emotionally positive environment during artistic and productive activities.

Purposeful guidance on the part of the teacher contributes to the successful development of children's visual creativity, including the development of visual arts techniques that give children the joy of learning and creativity. Mastering a variety of visual arts techniques provides an opportunity to feel the properties of visual materials, methods of use and their expressive capabilities when creating a drawing.

Application

Developing children's creative abilities in the learning process is one of the most important tasks of today. I offer a summary of GCD using the “Scratching” technique in the preparatory group.

GCD move:

1. Organizational part

Teacher: - Guys, guess where we are going now? Mystery:

He's black as night

And there are countless stars in it

Planets and constellations

There is a lot in it

What kind of place is this?

The question arises

And everyone will answer

After all, this is............................ (space)

That's right kids, we are now going to fly into space. How do you imagine space? (the guys' stories - a lot of stars, different planets, meteors, comets, the sun, the moon, etc.).

Teacher: Now we’ll find out if this is true in space

Game: "Space Travel"

Teacher: Guys, I will be your main commander. The chairs will be rockets.

Astronauts, put on your spacesuits. Take your seats in the rocket. Attention, there are 5 seconds left before the start. Let's start counting down the time. Five, four, three, two, one.... Start! Children imitate the sound of engines (u..u.. .u..). Attention! Crew, we're about to land.

Teacher: We are already in space. Are you experiencing overload? Commander's assignment.

Lean back, press against the back of the chair, tense the muscles of your arms and legs, pretend to be a person in zero gravity. (Children pretend) Attention!!!

Look carefully through the ship's windows, what interesting things do you see there?

Children's answer: Our planet, stars, moon, satellites, comet, etc.

Attention!!!

The rocket is landing. Fasten seat belts. Congratulations! Here we are in space. Be careful, you have to tell the inhabitants of planet earth everything you learn (children get up from their chairs, legs spread wide, walk around the group, carefully look around).

Teacher: And now it’s time to say goodbye and Commanders to return to their places! Let's start, let's go to the ships. Attention!!! The countdown begins: Five, four, three, two, one.... Start! (Children imitate the sound of engines -у.. .у.. .у.. .у.. .у)

Teacher: We just returned from the flight.

Our brave pilots.

Did you enjoy traveling?

You have seen a lot of interesting things, you will have something to tell earthlings about, and it will be even better if you not only tell, but also draw a cosmic landscape. We will draw in an unusual cosmic way on special sheets with sharp sticks. - Guys, who knows what this method of drawing is called? (scratches, or otherwise scratches)

2. Practical part:

Guys, before you start drawing, think about the content and composition of your drawing. Think about what you will draw large and what small. And in order for some objects (rocket, planets, sun, etc.) to appear more voluminous, you need to scratch the entire surface. Children take sheets of paper, shelves, sit in a position convenient for each child on the floor, at the table (children work independently). Musical compositions of the group “Zemlyane” are played.

3. Summary of the lesson

Exhibition of drawings.

Teacher: What did you want to talk about in your drawings? A child reading a poem by V. Tatarinov “Cosmonaut”

I'll build a rocket and go on a long journey.

I will choose the best star

And along the way, of course, I will remember sweet home

And five-pointed stars over the Kremlin.

Where the planets circle, my ship will pass.

The sunny people will make friends with me there.

And the local boys will meet me,

I will sing them a song about our native land!
