Ломовой - Товарищ Мересьев - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

You'll say, "Fairy tales," you'll ask, "Maybe they're fairy tales?"

A man without legs or a helmet flew a plane!

He flew over forests, befriended the skies.

You'll discover the truth for yourself when you read this story.

Comrade Meresyev! Hear me, I'm here.

We'll crawl across our native Polesia together...

Without arms, without legs, without a radio, without backup -

We'll eventually become heroes, you and I!

"But he flew a Farman—it doesn't require agility or speed."

"You're a Soviet man..."

You'll lie when you say the occupiers are dogs,

Meresyev was greatly feared for his cunning and accuracy. I'll tell you - the Fritzes hid their faces in the reeds...

Or rather, their hideous mugs; normal faces among the Germans are such a rarity!

Comrade Meresyev! Hear me, I'm here.

We'll crawl across our native Polesia...

Without arms, without legs, without a radio, without backup -

We'll eventually become heroes, you and I!

"You know... You don't know what kind of person you are!"

Enemies don't surrender. They mock and spit.

But I believe heroes will be found, and once again they'll rise in their native skies.

Planes fly, pilots with arms and legs,

And in chorus they sing these notes: "You are with us, Comrade Meresyev!"

Comrade Meresyev! Hear me, I'm here.

We'll crawl across our native Polesia...

Without arms, without legs, without a radio, without help -

We'll become heroes in the end, you and I!

Comrade Meresyev! Hear me, I'm here.

We'll crawl across our native Polesia...

Without arms, without legs, without a radio, without help -

We'll become heroes in the end, you and I!

Some are afraid, throw down their oars, lie down in the bottom of the longboat,

And they are dashed against the rocks! But others, gripping the oars tighter,

And they row—do you understand?!—they row, against the wind, against the storm,

They row, and they conquer the elements.

Alexey Petrovich Maresyev (May 7, 1916, Kamyshin, Saratov Governorate – May 18, 2001, Moscow) was a Soviet military leader and pilot. He was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.

Due to a severe injury during World War II, both his legs were amputated. However, despite his disability, the pilot returned to the skies and flew with prosthetics. During the war, he flew 86 combat missions, shooting down 11 enemy aircraft: four before and seven after his injury.

He is the inspiration for the hero of Boris Polevoy's novella "The Story of a Real Man."
