Вика Келлерман - Мамаев Курган
текст песни

How many tears and sorrowful pain
And now festive sadness
Millions perished there
Wanting to live and die
There groans, sweat, and blood mingled
And the eternal earth weeps
You fought for it then
Now it sings for you
When shells exploded menacingly
The sunset burned in hell like a roof
Stood steadfastly on high
You, thousands of ordinary soldiers
And even he who endured the torment
All the trials of war
Will pass, as at the wall of separation
Where you are frozen in marble
Will pass and quietly take off his hat
And the wind is just the same
Will remind you how boldly
You went into the attack with your chest, not your back
Will remind you and awaken your wounds
And he himself will go for a walk alone
You saw the tears of a veteran
They speak volumes
Here there were no subtle distinctions
Order of ranks
On the banks of the great Volga
I found myself a grave Enemy
Now frozen in statue
Heroes of those distant days
And not with a moment of silence
We thank you now
We thank you with tears
Those mothers whose sons never came
And what is more precious in memory
Than tears of grief and love
Even time will not dry them
For it always protects you
There is no longer a mausoleum in the world
Where memory will live on for so long
