English translation[]
Boldly – forward, for the Holy Motherland,
Amicably, like brothers, let's go!
We don't know fear and we do.
We'll binge a song in battle!
A song about how fighter-generals –
Markov, Drozdovsky the Hero –
With songs, we were bequeathed to die.
We swore our heads!
As under the Bear famously fought there,
Markov was a general there.
With him, the armored train broke into
And – the Bolshevik ran!
Under Novo-Dmitrevskaya, snow swept in,
Wet, bound by ice,
We walked meekly, fought merrily,
Warmed up with a cold cheek!
Let the enemy know that the fighter-generals
In our hearts, all live
And that again, as before,
We will be led to victories.
Let the enemy know that the fighter-generals
In our hearts, all live
And that again, as before,
We will be led to victories.
And again, again for the Fatherland of the Holy Motherland
Amicably, like brothers, let's go!
We don't know fear and we do.
We'll binge a song in battle!
