Текст песни Александр ЯШИН - Орел

Because of the cliff ,
Both because of the angle ,
Almost point-blank hit an eagle .

And he quietly left his stone,
Do not look back even on hand ,
And, as always , a wide range,
Slowly, went behind a cloud .

Perhaps fraction was quite shallow
For quail , and not for the eagle ?
Ile shook the hand of the shooter
And swayed barrel shotgun ?

No, not pellets slipped by,
A heart and eagle vulnerable ...
Eagle fell,
But among the distant cliffs,
So that the enemy could not see ,
Not triumphed .
1956
