TRANSLATION OF THE LYRICS:
There was a war, but we returned alive
To sow the seeds of the new life.
In honor of the fallen and the living ones:
Veterans, put your medals on!
My friends are lying in the fraternal graves.
We won't forget the native names.
In the name of widows and soldiers' mothers,
Veterans, put your medals on!
The soldiers went on the attack not for a reward,
But the price of that reward was very high.
In the name of the military honor and the truth,
Veterans, put your medals on!
In order for the Earth not to be burnt again
Soldiers' blood was shed in full.
So the enemy could remember the harsh lesson of the war
Veterans, put your medals on!

ORIGINAL LYRICS:
Была война, но мы пришли живыми,
Чтоб новой жизни сеять семена.
Во имя павших и живых во имя:
Фронтовики, наденьте ордена!
Мои друзья лежат в могилах братских.
Нам не забыть родные имена.
Во имя вдов и матерей солдатских,
Фронтовики, наденьте ордена!
Солдат в атаку шел не за награду,
Но велика награды той цена.
Во имя чести воинской и правды,
Фронтовики, наденьте ордена!
Чтоб не пылать земному шару снова,
Солдатской крови пролито сполна.
Чтоб помнил враг урок войны суровый,
Фронтовики, наденьте ордена!
