Текст песни Валерий Агафонов - Закатилася зорька за лес...

The dawn rolled over the forest, as if it had sunk,
A cold sapphire moved up the sky.
Maybe the brother asked for mercy from Cain,
Only we shouldn't change the officer's uniform.

The river is hidden under low clouds,
An alarming black jack whispered.
I did not have a chance to write a letter,
To say goodbye to you and wish you well.

And on the other side of the commissary redoubt - just touch it, well!
Machine-gun death will break the silence.
On a stormy night we will cross to the other side
So that you do not feel sorry for yourself in the last attack.

And the oath is truer and the prayer is more obsessive,
When the fight is hopeless, and don't expect a miracle.
You are hot with a cold bayonet,
Not sparing the uniform, siege, cool.

The dawn will be alarmed by firing and moans,
Yesterday's cornet will tip over into the grass.
The dead man is wearing an overcoat with gold shoulder straps.
Expensive cloth will hide the saber trail.

May they forgive me everything that I stain with my blood,
And all those whose memory is strong about me.
How a tear rolls down on my photo
And the dear hand will close the album.

The dawn rolled over the forest, as if it had sunk ...
The dawn rolled over the forest, as if it had sunk ...
The dawn rolled over the forest, as if it had sunk ...
