HYMN TO RED OCTOBER

Lyrics and Music by Basil Poledouris
Russian Translation by Herman Sinitzen

Holodna hmoora. Eemruchnoh v'doosheh Kak mohg znat ya shtoh tee oomriosh?	Cold, hard, empty. Light that has left me, How could I know that you would die?
Do svidonia, byehreg rodnoy Kak nam troodnag pridstahvit shtoh eto nyeh sohn. Rodina, dom radnoy, Do svidonia Rodina.	Farewell again, our dear land. So h ard for us to imagine that it's real, and not a dream. Motherland, native home, Farewell, our Motherland.
Ay. Avepakhod, avepakhod, nass val nahmarskaya zhdyot nyehdazh dyotsyah. Nass zah vootmarskaya dah, ee preeboy!	Let's go; the sea is waiting for us. The vastness of the sea is calling to us, and the tides!
