Комбат [Kombat] [English translation]

And at the front, it’s like at front -

Tobacco, ammo and vodka to hoard.

And at the front, the job is tough,

You have to shoot to stay alive.

And at the front, it’s like at front -

My sweetheart, please find time to write.

And at the front, the time will come,

It could be us, it could be them.

Com.Bat.1, our father, dear father, Com.Bat,

You never used soldiers to cover your heart.

The tanks are on fire and planes are above

So strike ‘em, Com.Bat! Strike, Com.Bat!

Com.Bat, our father, dear father, Com.Bat,

Defending Russia, Moscow, Arbát2.

Battery, salvo! Fire, Battalion!

Com.Bat, he commands us to war.

Battery, salvo! Fire, Battalion!

Battery, salvo! Fire, Battalion!

Battery, salvo! Fire, Battalion!

Battery, salvo!

Battery! Battery!! Battery!!! Agony!...

And on the front, it’s like at front -

All soldiers dream of mom and home.

And on the front … and so it is…

This life is tougher than it seems.

But war is war, will ever be...

A foolish auntie, a wretched bitch is she!

This war... this war rolls on,

A girl still waits her boy at home.

Com.Bat., our father, dear father, Com.Bat,

You never used soldiers to cover your heart.

The tanks are on fire and the planes are above,

So strike ‘em, Com.Bat! Strike, Com.Bat!

Com.Bat, our father, dear father, Com.Bat,

Defending Russia, Moscow, Arbát.

Battery, salvo! Fire, battalion!

Com.Bat, he commands us to war.

Com.Bat., our father, dear father, Com.Bat,

You never used soldiers to cover your heart.

The tanks are on fire and the planes are above,

So strike ‘em, Com.Bat! Strike, Com.Bat!

Com.Bat, our father, dear father, Com.Bat,

Defending Russia, Moscow, Arbát.

Battery, salvo! Fire, battalion!

Com.Bat, he commands us to war.

Battery, salvo! Fire, battalion!

Battery, salvo! Fire, battalion!

Battery, salvo! Fire, battalion!

Battery, salvo!

Battery! Battery!! Battery!!! Agony!...

And at the front, it’s like at front...

And at the front, it’s like at front...

And at the front, it’s like at front...

And at the front, it’s like at front...
