Отряд не заметил потери бойца [Otryad ne zametil poteri boytsa] [English translation]

Silly moth

Was burning down in the candle flame

A hot coal

Smoke rings

A little star fell into a puddle by the porch

The squadron didn't notice they had lost a fighter[*]

The dead one didn't rise

The sick one didn't die

The sighted one wasn't blinded

The sleeping one didn't wake up

Merrily did the brave hearts beat

The squadron didn't notice they had lost a fighter

There was nothing dearer

There was nothing more beautiful

There was nothing more hurtful

There was nothing happier

There was no beginning, there was no end

The squadron didn't notice they had lost a fighter

[*]A guote from the poem "Grenada" by Russian/Soviet poet Mikhail Svetlov
