I was born a farmer's son|I was trained to work the land|but when tomorrow brings us war, I will not look behind|and when tomorrow brings us war, I will not shed a tear for I will gladly go beyond||I was born a welder's son|I was trained to craft machines|but when tomorrow brings us war, I will not look behind|and when tomorrow brings us war, I will not shed a tear for I will gladly go beyond||I was born a Russian son|A million brothers make me strong|and when tomorrow brings us war, we will be ready day and night|I will gladly look ahead, I will cry with joy for together we press on||Ref.|When the day of days dawns, when we hear our duty's call we will all rise as one|Reborn as soldiers proud and strong, we are bravely marching on.
