Lyrics :
Blooming apple and pear trees
Mists floated over the river
Katyusha went ashore
On the high bank, on the steep
(Katyusha went ashore)
(To the high bank, to the steep)
Came out, started a song
About the steppe, gray eagle
About the one you loved
About the one whose letters she cherished
(About the one I loved)
(About the one whose letters she kept)
Oh, you, song, girl's song
You fly after the clear sun
And a fighter on the far frontier
Say hello from Katyusha
And a fighter on the far frontier
Say hello from Katyusha
Let him remember a simple girl
Let him hear her sing
May he protect his native land
And Katyusha's love will save
(Let him protect his native land)
(And Katyusha's love will save)
Blooming apple and pear trees
Mists floated over the river
Katyusha went ashore
On the high bank, on the steepShow more
