Денис МоZArt Меркотан - Посвящение пехоте
текст песни

From arrival to arrival
From explosion to silence
The infantry crawls through the mud
Breathing heavily, not hurrying
And where should the infantry hurry?
To rush to the other world?
You won't find such people here
No, you won't find such people
There's no desire to perish in vain
Not in a ceremonial column
Not to the parade ground, not to the ballet
But in a green landing
In small groups, one after another
And who are their friends? Bedbugs and lice
Everything with them, without fuss
They walk heavily under the burden
How heavily they walk under the burden
Our ordinary infantryman
And from where to expect the arrival?
The infantry doesn't know
Have a smoke for now, infantry
There's tobacco, there's a light
And we need to reach the place on time
We're getting stuck. The cursed black earth
Everything is stuck – you could howl like a wolf
This isn't child's play
Marching drills won't help
The body armor and vest weigh you down
We're caught in the thick of it
Look, the crew is groaning and moaning
God, how the crew is groaning and moaning
But they won't abandon the AGS (automatic grenade launcher)
Many here have long dreamed
Of having six pairs of eyes
Two looking ahead at their feet
Two looking back, and two – there
Where the clouds are swirling
And in the azure heights
It's not archangels frolicking
Oh, it's not archangels frolicking
A drone with suspended weapons hangs there
Now someone there will flinch
And run away
Have a smoke for now, infantry
There's tobacco, there's a light
And the Solntsepyok (thermobaric rocket launcher) will light it for them

And with soldier's luck
The infantry is face to face
With a concise line on their patch
"Two on the side – yours are gone"
Let them call it the queen of the fields
We seem to remember that
But it's better to sleep in a trench
Yes, it's better to sleep in a trench
With our comrade, the jack of spades
And puffing and sweating again
Gnawing through the lines
And again above the infantryman
It rumbles and buzzes
And even if exhausted on the path
Two steps – exhale-inhale
We are the Russian infantry
Yes, we are the Russian infantry
Yes, yes, yes, we are the Russian infantry
Truth is with us, God is with us
And from where to expect the incoming fire
The infantry has no idea
Have a smoke for now, infantry
There's tobacco, there's a light
And we just need to get to the place on time
And from where to expect the incoming fire
The infantry has no idea
Have a smoke for now, infantry
There's tobacco, there's a light
And we just need to get to the place on time
And we just need to get to the place on time
