Текст песни Иосиф Кобзон - Минута молчания

Light over the stone bowl
A piercing shiver of fire
There is a special day in our life,
That is similar to a military oath.

In the silence of the forest resinous,
In the fields that have subsided here and there
From under the granite obelisks
The fallen soldiers stand up.

They rise near Kharkov and Orsha
And in Staraya Rus and Orel.
And what is more solemn and bitter
That silence on earth?

Oh no, their faces haven't faded
The glow of the eyes has not faded
They stand as in practice
Painfully looking at us.

What we are in labors, studies,
Are the soldiers of the past worthy
Their will to surrender
And their furious courage.

How visibly their bayonets sparkle,
Beams glide through the orders
Fatherland calls out fighters
Up to one by name.

Where the sunset is
The chilly wind sways,
Immortal guys are standing
Helmets pulled up to eyebrows

In torn overcoats and vests,
With tight bundles of pomegranates
There are no nameless heroes here
And there are no unknown soldiers.
