По широкой дороге колхозной, |
Po širokoj doroge kolhoznoj, |
English translation[]
Along the wide farm roads,
Through Moscow's great city squares.
We pass a terrible avalanche.
We're ready for battle.
Chorus:
Artillerymen, take sight!
The scout is vigilant, the sighter brave.
(𝄆) We'll command the enemy: "Leave our land!"
Or face a devastating force! (𝄇)
We walk through fields of gold,
And the young soldiers sing,
Ringing song of the artillerymen,
You sound like fireworks!
Chorus
To protect our freedom and peace,
We have grenades, and shrapnel ready.
Our guns and mortars
Will hit their target without missing.
Chorus
If the enemy wishes to break through to us,
Then the time for combat will come.
To fight like a hero for the Motherland,
Every man counted will be there.
Chorus
Of its quick grip and precise work,
Our artillerymen are proud.
Our cavalry, our infantry,
We will always assist.
Chorus
The way is paved for our tanks,
The combat fire of our cannons.
Destroying the enemy's strength from the bottom,
With a formidable pillar of fire.
Chorus
We walk through fields of gold,
And the young soldiers sing,
Ringing song of the artillerymen,
You sound like fireworks!
Chorus[2]
