Поезд В Огне [Poezd v ogne] [English translation]

Colonel Vasin has come to the frontline

And brought his young wife along

Colonel Vasin has rallied his corps

And told them: "Let's go home"

We fought this war for seventy years

We were taught that life is a fight

But the intelligence has just reported

We fought ourselves all this time.

And I have seen generals

They drink and eat our death

Their children are going crazy

Cause there's nothing left that they don't have

And our land lies in rust

Our churches are burnt.

If we want to have a home to return to

Now is the time to return

Our train is on fire, there are no buttons to push

Our train is on fire, there is no place to run to

Long ago this land was ours before we got trapped in this war

And it will die if it is nobody's, it's time for it to be returned

And the torches are burning around us

It's the rallying of all perished troops

And people who shot our fathers

Are now making plans for our youths.

We were born by the sound of marches

We were threatened by jail

I say it's about time we stopped crawling.

We have returned to our land.

Our train is on fire, there are no buttons to push

Our train is on fire, there is no place to run to

Long ago this land was ours before we got trapped in this war

And it will die if it is nobody's, it's time for it to be returned
