Текст песни Крючков - Отступали войска по степи

Retreating troops in the wilderness,
Yes frightened horse neighing,
People were no longer able to fight,
And around blazing fires.

Don was long gone,
Ahead - the unknown foreign country.
And in Russia - it can not see any DIG,
Just tired, sweaty back ...

These troubled years of fighting,
Reckless, bloody and terrible ...
& quot; There once was all mine,
Lord, wait a minute! & Quot;

Raved so young captain,
Something clenched hand whitened.
Ten days he suffered from wounds
Ten days carried the death for him.

& quot; the Lord! Soon the sea - and there
You will leave Russian waters ...
I'll give you a symbol of Russia -
Save it for all the years ... & quot;

His lips trembled, began to look empty,
I still remember his eyes.
From the hand that clutched it alive,
Fell burnt sage bush ...

Year flew like a dream,
The blood in the veins of old age already getting cold ...
I keep for myself and for you
This burnt sage bush ...
