lyrics

(English translation by Irene)
The planes holding course to the forefront
The sun burning low in the sky
Caught up soldiers’ song by a campfire
Of falcon who laid down his life.
Undaunted he was waging battle
For blessed Soviet country to thrive.
But his chest was pierced with a bullet,
And wings were embraced by the fire.
But his chest was pierced with a bullet,
And wings were embraced by the fire.
And facing the death he cried out:
“No matter I die in the fight,
My life will be paid by the value
Of hundreds of enemies’ lives!”
He rushed down his wings burning brightly
Right onto the enemies’ heads.
The ground shook as struck by a thunder
Of young falcon’s valiant death.
The ground shook as struck by a thunder
Of young falcon’s valiant death.
The evil was broke and defeated -
Like ashes dispelled in the air,
By fearless heart’s final beating
By his last and uttermost breath.
The planes holding course to the forefront
The sun burning low in the sky
Caught up soldiers’ song by a campfire
Of falcon who laid down his life.
Caught up soldiers’ song by a campfire
Of falcon who laid down his life.
