Текст песни Владимир Высоцкий - Полчаса до атаки

Half an hour before the attack,
Soon again - under the tanks,
Again hear explosions concert -
A young soldier
Dispatched from home
A small blue triangle envelope.

And if you are not here,
If - handwriting bride
Or write your father and mother -
But it happened the other -
We see nothing before the fight
Rushed to convey a letter to the soldier.

There stood first:
& Quot; I'm sorry I was silent,
Waiting will not & quot ;. - And yet, the whole leaf.
Just below - a postscript:
& Quot; leave not close -
You calmly voyuy, and forgive if that & quot ;.

At the first break
The boy cried mournfully:
& Quot; The Postman, you brought me! -
One minute before death
The triangular envelope
I got a bullet wound & quot ;.

He stepped out of the trench
With a gun in the neck,
He did not beware of debris -
And in the battle over Suroyu
He embraced the earth,
Only - wind scattered scraps of letters.
