      Мне кажется порою, что солдаты,
      С кровавых не пришедшие полей,
      Не в землю нашу полегли когда-то,
      А превратились в белых журавлей.
      Mne kažetsja poroju, što soldaty,
      S krovavyx ne prišedšije polej,
      Ne v zemlju našu polegli kogda-to,
      A prevratilisʹ v belyx žuravlej.
      It seems to me at times, that soldiers,
      Who did not return from the blood-stained fields,
      Never lay down in this earth of ours,
      But turned into white cranes.
  4. blood-red
