about

Soviet song of mid-70s praising virtues and deeds of the First Chairman of VChK

lyrics

Dzerzhinsky Song (1976)
Music: P. Kupreishvili Lyrics: F. Petrov., Ye. Ryabov, N. Shuklin

(English translation by Irene T.)

From mouth to mouth the legends are told
Of faithful and glorious knight,
The one who devoted his life to the Truth,
For Lenin – support and delight.

A pitiless judge for the traitors and foes,
A torch for his friends to unite
And stand arms in hand for the new better world
He showed us the way with his life.

Chorus:
Felix, Felix the iron,
Felix kind and soft-hearted,
A friend in the fight,
A guard in the night
His deeds and his fame
In songs will remain!

For thousands of orphans like farther he was,
A teacher both caring and wise,
He shared his courageous fiery soul
And taught them to live and to fight.

Chorus

The peace won’t be broken, new warriors come
To throw any hostile aside
And Felix is always with us in this war
We’ll keep revolution alive!
