Не тот Рокот - Баязет
текст песни

The Porte forgot the peace treaty
Which was signed in Bucharest
And expelling the Russians, blocking the Bosphorus
I dreamed of dragging the Persians into war again

The Sultan saw guilt in this
Making a decision without delay
The Tsar-Emperor declared war
Troops entered Ottoman possessions

Between the mountains covered with the starry sky
Above Bayazet without fear of attacks
The only answer to the enemy
The Russian flag flies to the roar of cannons

The detachment took control of the sanjak
And we saddled an important road
Cutting off the path for enemy gangs
For months to the Russian doorstep

Pasha from Van is gathering strength
He received orders to break through to the rear
There are seven times more of them than the garrison

Pasha knocked down the posts with the dawn of the vanguard
The bloody useless assault has begun
For hours cutting half a mile
The garrison met the enemies with grapeshot

Opponents razed the city in battle
Battery calculations went against the grain
Defenders will argue for their lives
They will not flinch in battle, despite death

Between the mountains covered with the starry sky
Above Bayazet without fear of attacks
The only answer to the enemy
The Russian flag flies to the roar of cannons

And the path to the Russian rear is securely locked
The garrison stood on the rocks like granite
And for a whole decade it’s hopeless
The Pasha kept the bastion under siege

And at this time the main Russian corps
Having defeated Haji-Saleh, he went forward
And Erzerum, as a daring person
Doomed to surrender with weapons

Between the mountains covered with the starry sky
Above Bayazet without fear of attacks
The only answer to the enemy
The Russian flag flies to the roar of cannons
