В руках автомат [V rukakh avtomat] [English translation]

Machine gun is in the hands

Because the soldier

Medals shine

Because the war

Came back home

Because the hero

Came home alive

It's silence and sun light

Suddenly they said - there's no more death

Just the sun's light and silence

Suddenly they said - the war is over

Came back alive

Seems like the truth is with you

Mother was missing you

She weeps out of happiness

Wife will hug

She will look such a way

That spring will come again

It's silence and sun light

Suddenly they said - there's no more death

Just the sun's light and silence

Suddenly they said - the war is over!

And there was silence

As if a fallen autumn leaf

Froze... and the war ended

And this was the last shot

Suddenly, the singing of birds was heard

And the river was heard again

The winds swept death from the faces

And you can start all over again

It's silence and sun light

Suddenly they said - there's no more death

Just the sun's light and silence

Suddenly they said - the war is over!
