Катюша [Katyusha] [English translation]

Pear and apple blooms had petals pushing

Mists afloat along the river shore

To this shore would often come Katusha

To the shore so high, so steep below

To this shore would often come Katusha

To the shore so high, so steep below

She would come and she would sing aloud

Of her ashen eagle of the steppe

Of the one she loved and cared about

Of the one whose letters she had kept

Of the one she loved and cared about

Of the one whose letters she had kept

Hey, you, song with lyrics from the girl’s heart

Fly away behind the glorious sun

To a border guard on farther bounds

Give Katusha’s warm regards and love

To a border guard on farther bounds

Give Katusha’s warm regards and love

Let him think of this girl unaffected

Hear her song that she is singing now

Let him keep his homeland in safety

And their love, Katusha will keep sound

Let him keep his homeland in safety

And their love, Katusha will keep sound

Pear and apple blooms had petals pushing

Mists afloat along the river shore

To this shore would often come Katusha

To the shore so high, so steep below

To this shore would often come Katusha

To the shore so high, so steep below
