Helmut Lotti - "Poljushko Polje"

Helmut Lotti - "Poljushko Polje".
For the girls, the goodbyes are heartbreaking when their loved ones have to leave for the army. Because the army, no matter how well armed, always has to deal with an enemy that shows no mercy.
The song originated in the thirties of the last century. A soldiers song, a song of the Red Army, that developed a bitter historical taste since World War II and the thereupon following Cold War.

-------------------------------

Field, my field, my wide field,
The heroes ride over the field,
hey, the heroes of the Red Army.

The girls are crying,
the girls are sorrowful today,
their sweethearts went away for a long time,
hey, their sweethearts went away to the army
