Текст песни Георг Отс - Заря космического века

Music: Alexandra Pakhmutova
Words: S. Grebennikov, N. Dobronravov

Flying like a song inspired -
The dawn of the cosmic age.
In the chest of the mysterious universe
Beaten heart of man.

In the darkness of the cosmic you
Star roads are open.
We are our dream for you
All put into orbit!

They have the right to this feat,
And each lived one dream -
All the way, from start to fame
Walk with you shoulder to shoulder.

We would have stood the nerves
There would be courage and strength.
We believe in rocket first
We just did not have enough space.

You reached the star threshold
Flying, as a feat, was high.
The sun comes to us from the east,
And your ship was called "East."

And soon new rockets
In the orbits of courage rush.
Do you hear; distant planets
Waiting for our messenger!
