Four years of hard work!

This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

[Verse 1]
Am
Far across the broad stream,
E7 Am
Distant campfires gleamed,
Dm Am
As the clear light of dawn started fading,
Dm
There a hundred young scouts
Am
From Budyonny's recruits,
Dm E7 Am
Galloped off into fields, with foes waiting.

[Verse 2]
Am
Long and hard did they ride,
E7 Am
In the dead gloom of night,
Dm Am
On the broad, vast Ukrainian plains
Dm
When, across the broad stream,
Am
They saw bayonets gleam
Dm E7 Am
Of the White Guards, their ranks locked like chains.

[Verse 3]
Am
And the fearless young troop
E7 Am
On its enemy swooped,
Dm Am
Into furious battle proceeding,
Dm
Then a young warrior bold
Am
Drooped his head sharply low,
Dm E7 Am
And his Komsomol heart, shot, was bleeding.

[Verse 4]
Am
And he fell at the feet
E7 Am
Of his fearless black steed,
Dm Am
And his brown eyes he closed, much too early!
Dm
You, my black steed, my dear,
Am
Tell the rest, who aren't here,
Dm E7 Am
That with honor I died for the workers!
Dm
You, my black steed, my dear,

Tell the rest, who aren't here,
