Солдат [Soldat] [English translation]

I'm a soldier,

I haven't slept in five years

and I got bags under my eyes

I haven't seen it myself,

but I was told

I'm a soldier,

and I don't have a head

I took it off with my boots

Yo, yo, yo, the commander yells

the commanders mouth is ripped open

because of the grenade...

White cotton,

red cotton doesn't heal soldiers

I'm a soldier,

a young boy of war

I'm a soldier,

mom please heal my wounds

I'm a soldier,

a soldier of a godforsaken country

I'm a hero,

tell me, from what novel?

O, o-o-o

I'm a soldier,

I'm sorry when there's only a bullet left,

it's just me or him.

The last wagon,

moonshine,

there are a million of us,

in the UN.

I'm a soldier,

and I know my job,

my job's to shoot,

so the bullet will hit

the enemy's body.

This ragga is for you, Mother-War,

are you happy now?

a young boy of war,
