What has passed will again never happen

To feel grief there’s no reason for me!

The ding-dong of the bells is in power

To bring alive many ghosts of the past

Make my Russian soul feel tense and eager,

Force my laziness go off at last!

The Sacred War

перевод песни Александра Боде «Священная война»

Oh, rise enormous land of mine,

Oh, rise for a deathly fight

Against the German beastly kind,

The dark Teutonic might.

Let noble fury boil again
