TANKS THUNDERED ON THE FIELD OF BATTLE

tanks thundered on the field of battle
the soldiers went to deadly fight
and what about the young commander-man *
they carried him with wounded head

and what about the young commander-man *
they carried him with wounded head

the rocket shot into the corpus of tank
said farewell to friendly crew
and four dead bodies near tank-machine *
they will complete the morning view

whole machine is in arms of fire
the bomb-complect is about to blast...
I wanna live so much, my dear friends of war *
but there is no force to come out

they'll take us from under the crashes
they'll take up the skeleton-tank
and loud volleys of the tower-guns *
will lead us to our last good-bye

the telegramms will fly all around
to tell sad news to hommies & friends
that your son-soldier 'll never come back home *
and he will never be your guest

old-mother is crying in the corner
the old dad dries his tears away
and the young lady never knows *
of tankman soldier's tragic death
(about his unhappy end)

his foto will be covered with dust
on girl's shelf, full of yellow books
in soldier clothes with the shoulder marks
... their marriage will never be in future

and he will never be her husband
and she will never be his wife
