Текст песни Пламя - Когда мужчины говорят

When men talk about how they served the Motherland,
They lived under artillery fire in the trenches - their words are as heavy as hail.
When men speak - they remember friends of the departed,
Not one is forgotten, but friends cannot be returned.

Dug into trenches and mass graves
Half of Russia, half of Europe - where did the soldiers get their strength?
How they walked sternly through death and through troubles,
To say just one word in silence - Victory!

When men speak with faceted glasses
Healing wounds with intoxicated wine - everyone has a kind look.
When men talk about duty, friendship and honor,
And they sing a song together - their wives, listening, are silent.

When men talk, I think they lived cruelly.
And, if all of them were awarded, then there would not be enough awards.
