TRANSLATION OF THE SONG:
Soldiers are always glad to see us -
Because we open, we open parades.
I will say, not just for fun:
Our position is high -
Musicians always lead troops
During the parade!
Refrain:
Play the trumpet (pra-papa-papa),
Play the drum (tra-tata-tata),
Play the trombone (ba-baba-baba)
Play the accordion (la-lala-lala) -
We never lose heart
Always play passionately
We are musicians, musicians!
And when, and when the troops go camping,
We together, we together go with them.
It’s not in vain that there is
An old saying among people,
That a campaign without music -
Is like a wedding without wine!
Refrain.
There is, besides, there is, certainly
A conductor, an excellent conductor.
He knows his job very well
He is a world-class musician:
Everything sings and everything plays
In his golden hands!
Refrain.
We will say, not just for fun:
Our position is high -
Musicians always lead troops
During the parade!

RUSSIAN LYRICS:
Нам всегда, нам всегда солдаты рады -
Открываем, открываем мы парады.
Я скажу, не шутки ради:
Наша должность высока -
Музыканты на параде
За собой, за собой ведут войска!
Припев:
На трубе (пра-папа-папа),
На барабане (тра-тата-тата),
На тромбоне (ба-баба-баба),
На баяне (ля-ляля-ляля) -
Никогда не унываем,
С "огоньком" всегда играем,
Мы - музыканты, музыканты!
А когда, а когда войска выходят,
С ними вместе, с ними вместе мы в походе.
Ведь не зря давно в народе
Поговорка есть одна,
Что без музыки в походе -
Как на сва... Как на свадьбе - без вина!
Припев.
Есть к тому же, есть к тому же, непременно
Дирижёр, дирижёр у нас отменный.
Дело он отлично знает,
Музыкант он мировой:
Всё поёт и всё играет
В золотых, в золотых руках его!
Припев.
Скажем мы, не шутки ради:
Наша должность высока -
Музыканты на параде
За собой, за собой ведут войска!
