Текст песни
Endless dunes beneath the burning midday sun
A young boy with a rifle lies alone
In a foreign desert far away from home
Wondering how he came to this unknown
Somewhere in command they made a fatal mistake
His whole unit was trapped with nowhere left to run
Waiting for the mortars falling from the sky
Waiting for the judgment soon to come
Still he smiled softly while composing in his mind
One last letter he would send back home
If he survived the fight
Father mother how are you all
Soon they say we will all be coming home
How is kolka my childhood friend
Right now everything is going strong
Please do not worry it feels like paradise
Kiss my little daughter once for me
And tell my wife i send my love tonight
There is no danger here at all
The battle ended quickly half an hour maybe less
Mortar fire tore their bodies into dust
With shrapnel through his chest one arm gone and legs destroyed
Still he fought alone because he must
For many days the chopper could not reach the dead
And their bodies rotted underneath the blazing sun
At last they gathered fragments of the fallen boys in bags
While far away his father walked toward the mail with one
Hello my son we send our love
Only kolka is no longer here
He was fighting somewhere near your land
We buried him just days ago my dear
You know how precious you are to us
So please take care and stay alive
Your mother cries and sorrow fills this home
But somehow son i still survive
Beside the closed black coffin stood the grieving father
At last his son had finally come back home
But his mother could not bear the pain inside her heart
She died upon her young sons grave alone
She died there
Upon her young sons grave
