Translated lyrics
Brothers, we have forged, A pact of life and death. We stand in struggle as comrades, the red flag in hand. and should a bullet strike you, a bullet from the enemy, the dog then I take you out of the fire and heal your wounds with kisses. And should you fall dead, Your dear eyes closed, I'll wrap you in the red flag, And fall with you in the battle.
