Georg Ots,
DO RUSSIANS WANT OF ANY WAR?

1
Do Russians want of any war?Recall a state of holy sadness after allThe silence soars over tilths and fieldsAnd at the poplars and birch trees
2
Just shall you ask those veteransThose fallen now lying under treesAnd their sons would say to you -
Whether the RussiansWhether the Russians Want war!
3
Not only for that own landThey were then killed because of warBeing sure that all the people in the worldNot gonna sleep with war nightmares overall
4
Just shall you ask those veteransWho gave you hugs at Elbe meet, -And the allegiance to the memory we keep
Whether the RussiansWhether the Russians Want war!
5
Yes, we are successful in the fightBut do not want to see againThe soldiers who fell down due combatsForever got embraced with bitter land
6
Just shall you ask all mothers' mindAt least just ask the soldier's wifeThis way you should forever understand
Whether the RussiansWhether the Russians Want war!
7
He'll understand: a docker, fishermanDay laborer, every businessmanThat shall be understood by any folk
Whether the RussiansWhether the Russians Want war!

ORIGINAL RUSSIAN LYRIC
Хотят ли Русские Войны?
1
Хотят ли русские войны?
Спросите вы у тишины
Над ширью пашен и полей,
И у берёз и тополей.
2
Спросите вы у тех солдат,
Что под берёзами лежат,
И вам ответят их сыны —
Хотят ли русские,
Хотят ли русские,
Хотят ли русские войны!
3
Не только за свою страну
Они погибли в ту войну,
А чтобы люди всей земли
Спокойно ночью спать могли.
4
Спросите тех, кто воевал,
Кто вас на Эльбе обнимал,-
Мы этой памяти верны.
Хотят ли русские,
Хотят ли русские,
Хотят ли русские войны!
5
Да, мы умеем воевать,
Но не хотим, чтобы опять
Солдаты падали в бою
На землю горькую свою.
6
Спросите вы у матерей,
Спросите у жены моей,
И вы тогда понять должны —
Хотят ли русские,
Хотят ли русские,
Хотят ли русские войны!
7
…Поймёт и докер, и рыбак,
Поймёт рабочий и батрак,
Поймёт народ любой страны —
Хотят ли русские,
Хотят ли русские,
Хотят ли русские войны!
