Shield and Sword - Makhnem ne gliadya (Let's swap without looking) HQ

Lyrics:

A searchlight fumbles slowly on a hill,
And the night seems darker to us.
For months I did not take off my uniform,
For months I did not take off my belt,
I have a casing from a shell,
I have some fragrant home-grown tobacco in my embroidered pouch,
Extra items for a soldier are not necessary,
So let's swap without looking like we say on the front.

A soldier keeps a letter from his mother and a handful of home soil
In a pocket of his weather-stained greatcoat.
We didn't spare anything for Victory,
Not even our own hearts.
What have I to wish you before the fight?
You know that we go in fire and smoke not for awards.
Let's, brother-soldier, swap our fates.
Let's swap without looking like we say on the front.

We have learned to go under fire without stooping,
We have learned to leave without grieving.
So it is why we have to drink for you, our dear Guards Corps,
A hundred grams and a little more of alcohol.
While some black clouds still are close overhead,
For us there's no peace, and there's no turning back,
So what can we swap with you, brother-soldier?
Let's swap without looking like we say on the front.

So what can we swap with you, brother-soldier?
Let's swap without looking like we say on the front.
