С кровавых не пришедшие полей,
Не в землю нашу полегли когда-то,
А превратились в белых журавлей.- Mne kažetsja poroju, što soldaty,
S krovavyx ne prišedšije polej,
Ne v zemlju našu polegli kogda-to,
A prevratilisʹ v belyx žuravlej. - It seems to me at times, that soldiers,
Who did not return from the blood-stained fields,
Never lay down in this earth of ours,
But turned into white cranes.
