*TRANSLATION OF THE LYRICS:*
On the bright May nights
The fights have died down and ended.
Where are you now, fellow soldiers,
My combat companions?
I walk at a good sunset hour
At the brand new pine gates.
Maybe a fair breeze will bring
А familiar soldier to us here...
We would recall how we used to live,
How we lost count for difficult versts.
We would drink to the bottom for the Victory
And would add one more for the friends.
If you happen to be unmarried,
You don’t be sad, my friend
Here in our region rich in songs
The girls are pretty damn good.
We will build a good house for you,
In order to be seen all over:
The family of the Russian hero lives here,
Who defended the country with his chest.
On the May short nights,
The fights have died down and ended.
Where are you now, fellow soldiers,
My combat companions?
*ORIGINAL RUSSIAN LYRICS:*
Майскими, короткими ночами,
Отгремев, закончились бои.
Где же вы теперь, друзья-однополчане,
Боевые спутники мои?
Я хожу в хороший час заката
У сосновых новеньких ворот.
Может, к нам сюда знакомого солдата
Ветерок попутный занесет.
Мы бы с ним припомнили, как жили,
Как теряли трудным верстам счет.
За победу мы б по полной осушили,
За друзей добавили б еще.
Если ты случайно неженатый,
Ты, дружок, нисколько не тужи.
Здесь у нас в районе, песнями богатом,
Девушки уж больно хороши.
Мы тебе хороший дом построим,
Чтобы было видно по всему:
Здесь живет семья российского героя,
Грудью защитившего страну.
Майскими, короткими ночами,
Отгремев, закончились бои.
Где же вы теперь, друзья-однополчане,
Боевые спутники мои?
