Lyrics in English: Sometimes it seems to me that the soldiers who did not come from the bloody fields did not once die in our land, but turned into white cranes. They still fly and give us voices from those distant times. Is that why we fall silent so often and become sad, while looking at the heavens? A tired wedge flies, flies across the sky, flies in the fog at the end of the day. And in that formation there is a small gap. Perhaps this is the place for me. The day will come, and with a flock of cranes I will sail in the same gray haze From under the heavens, like a bird, calling out to everyone, whom I left on earth. It sometimes seems to me that the soldiers who did not return from the bloody fields did not once die in our land, but turned into white cranes.
What did you expect, most of RUclips comments, or internet comments for that matter, are just kids with a small brain and understanding. Just facts. Note the most.
Хотя ошибки присутствуют, но в этом нет ничего страшного! Нужно ещё потренироваться, тогда будет всё замечательно! А еще, я рад, что не все стали отменять Россию и русскую культуру!
There is a certain, undying sadness that echos throughout Russian music, literature, culture, philosophy, and art that I think we can all connect to in some way. The Russian language is beautiful. More than that, though, the Russian people have an indestructable morale. They somehow find a way to withstand the most depressing of circumstances. It’s beautiful. Have a nice day everyone. I’m just rambling.
That is, because in Russia we were always relied on ourselves: on 10 leaders there were only 2-4 which been working for their country. We didn't get any colonies for cheap work force or resources, this land was all we have. Just a bunch of towns, a lot of villages, a bunch of talented peoples and very small level of technology. Our future almost always comes with sadness, but we were pushing it together, hand by hand, shoulder to shoulder. And we firstly found it only in 19th century, when industrial revolution knock to our doors with 40-60 years of backlog to Europe. Then there was a Great War, which gave birth to two revolutions: 1st one was made by idiots, which just keep lying to us for 7-8 months. 2nd one was made by people which completed their promises, but with cost SUCH great, so we still can not fully believe what we made right choice. By the way, 20th century was a golden age for Russia and other countries of USSR. This could be not that truly history (because my English is not that good and what I prefer to learn history of last two centuries). But I hope I gave ya a kind of understanding how our (and other countries of Russian Empire, and USS republics) history feels to me. (btw, I think what people with better middle-age history knowledge will say more)
This brings up many interesting points. The people of Russia are beautiful. I must say though, as someone who has spent nearly their entire life researching history, thay I cannot agree with you on the state of the USSR. I do agree that the Soviet Union had it’s golden age but, it started out as a bloody massacre. I, myself, am a socialist. But, Stalin was a fascist dictator who ruled with force. Millions of his own country men dead at his hands. He was a fascist under the guise of socialism. He replaced community with the party. This is not an attack on the people of eastern Europe, however. Again, I acknowledge that the USSR had it’s golden age. It also had it’s downfall.. At the end of the day, I believe that the ideal system for human prosperity would be a socialist, democratic, libertarian, republic. People governing themselves and taking care of eachother. Earning their way into society by participating and making their community a better place.
@@jarethrowe1126 your opinion, friend. I do believe what ideal system for humanity would be social-democracy, because traditional free-trade democracy brought us to current state: consumerism society which works just like "Hive" concept from science-fiction - race, living with only one target: consume everything in the universe until there will be only dead worlds in cold stars.
@@jarethrowe1126 я не знаю английского, надеюсь это нам не помешает. Ваше мнение имеет право на существование, но считать Сталина тираном-диктатором, которого можно сравнивать с Гитлером... Может у меня получиться Вас переубедить. Сначала необходимо брать во внимание то время и те условия в которых Сталин брал власть в свои руки. Не зря говорят, что Сталин принял страну с принял страну с сохой, а оставил с ядерной бомбой, ведь по сути-то так-то оно так и есть. После Великой войны, после Великой Октябрьской революции, после контрреволюции, интервенции стран Запада с армиями победившими Германию в окопах Первой Мировой войны, после такой бойни страна была вся в руинах. По всей её обширной территории происходили бои, которые оставили себя чудовищные последствия. В 1924 году предводитель революции, по сути - отец всего народа за которым шли десятки миллионов умирает, оставив стране неопределённость и туманное будущее. В это время к власти приходит Сталин. Его главная идея в самом начале - обеспечить народ товарами народного потребления, закончить электрификацию всей страны. На XIV съезде партии курс кардинально изменился. Теперь главная цель всего народа - индустриализация. На этом съезде выступил Михаил Николаевич Тухачевский со своим докладом о начавшейся милитаризацией стран Запада - Франции и Великобритании. Начался процесс индустриализации ударными темпами, наращивание оборонной промышленности. Такая обширная индустриализация требовала гения-руководителя роль которого возглавил Иосиф Виссарионович. Менее чем за 15 лет произошло невозможное. Рост экономики составил 13.5% в год!!! Это мировой рекорд для всей планеты. Говорить о том, какие возможности открылись перед населением, не считаю нужным. К 36 году СССР был безусловным лидером на материке, а к 37 году окончательно сложилась профессиональная армия, вооружённая по последнему слову техники. Более половины всего командного состава - коммунисты, верные товарищи своих подчинённых. В высших военных кругах стоят большие патриоты своей Родины, которые каждый день тратят максимум усилий для укрепления рубежей страны. По поводу чисток - это было ужасно. Множество миллионов погибли. Но поверьте на слово, товарищ Сталин в этом не виноват. В высших кругах чистки устраивали сотрудники НКВД, которые подчинялись наркому внутренних дел СССР, то есть - Ежову, потом Ягоде, опять Ежову и затем с 38 года - Берии. Они все отсчитывались перед Сталиным и он сам на них опирался. Как итог - в 38 расстреляли Ягоду, в 40 - Ежова, а Берия погиб позже Сталина, но тоже из-за раскалённого свинца во лбу - в 1955 году от рук КГБшников, которых отправил такой же предатель как и он сам - Никита Сергеевич Хрущёв. Что же происходило у народа? Было время когда было крайне жутко и, действительно, можно было сравнивать только с немецкой оккупацией. По словам моей бабушки, которая застала свою бабушку (мою прапрабабушку) дело было такое... "Как пришли на Дон большевики, так сразу установили свои советы по всем станицам и призывали всех казаков, русских и украинцев туда захаживать. Мой отец был казаком настоящим и гордым, не хотел порочить честь семьи и ни в каких политических играл не принимал участия. Тогда в станице мы жили в разы лучше остальных, при империи нам никто не мешал работать и своим трудом мы ухаживали за полем, скотом и дичью. Рос тогда у нас и виноград и бахча и тыквы и всё-всё-всё что душе угодно, это было хорошее время для казаков не участвующих в Гражданской войне. Это мы трудились не покладая рук, да были среди наших соседей и те, кто уж точно даже не думал о подобном времени препровождении. Те, кто спал под заборами, просил милостыню и её же на самогон менял. Вот именно такие и шли в эти советы, где им с радостью давали задачу и ставили цель - собрать со станицы всё оружие и столько-то хлеба да зерна. Вот тут-то и понеслось. Мы ничего не могли поделать с тем, что всё нажитое честным трудом уходило от нас изо дня в день. А всё из-за того, что прятать то было бесполезно - он-то из наших и всё про всех знал. Слава Богу мой отец был человеков умным и крайне образованным, мы засаливали резали часть скота, засаливали мясо и прятали под землёй. Ели мы только по ночам. Однажды мы даже чуть не поплатились за то, что сильно засиделись до утра. Во дворе стоял стойкий запах борща, и когда он вошёл в курень нам пришлось сказать что мы ничего не знаем. После обыска у нас он отправился по другим домам, где расстрелял отца многодетного семейства... Это было очень жутко. В 39 году его показательно расстреляли и с того времени всё пошло в гору. Никто уже не боялся и мы снова обзавелись каким-никаким хозяйством и дела бы так и дальше улучшались, если бы не война... Опять и снова эти разруха, голод, смерть вперемешку со страхом. Моя семья, как и у других, прошла через ужас. Я сама осталась жива только из-за того, что моя мать подстригла меня налысо и соврала нацистам что я больна сифилисом, чего они боялись больше всего." Надеюсь вы уже поняли, что товарищ Сталин физически за такими мелочами не мог уследить. Он очень многое сделал для страны и даже для всего мира, но мы проиграли в первый день войны, даже не поняв этого.
Ngl, I like the way my headphones vibrate when hearing the gunfire- it makes me feel like i'm in the middle of a gunfire, hiding while hearing this in an old radio. idk, i love it
This song was written based on the verses of one Soviet (Avar) poet from Dagestan when he saw a monument in one village in Ossetia on which a lonely old mother looked at seven cranes flying into the distance and learned a story about a mother who lost all her seven children, and the meaning in that sometimes it seems that they are still alive, they just turned into white cranes. "It seems to me sometimes that soldiers, From the bloody fields that did not come, They were not buried in the fraternal graves, And they turned into white cranes. " And not about the girl from Hiroshima. Although, as Rasul Gamzatov said, this is a song about any who died in this war.
This came on my youtube mix while driving on an empty and rainy mountain highway under storm clouds that were underlit by a dying sunset. One of the most powerful moments for me this year.
If anyone’s wondering: this song wrote Rassul Gamzatov- the USSR poet, he decided to write this song when he saw a memorial to a little girl with crane toys in Hiroshima ( the girl believed that her cranes will save her from the bomb ), on his way back to home he received a telegram with message that his mother died. When he finally came to his home he wrote this song in his national language, which a bit after was translated to Russian and this song became anti-war symbol, many monumental with cranes were open all over the globe.

I absolutely love Rinat Voligasmi, the artwork could've been unnamed and it would've been obvious, his work is so unique, except for him doing 342 trillion big dipper soldier guys, but they all look cool and I personally would love to have one or two of these painitngs.
I especially love his series about Sergei, Lenin's twin that dropped politics and became a muslim. It sounds like a complete shitpost and completly satirical but done with excelent craftsmanship
I hardly understood that but I assume you're talking about the painting. All I could make sense of it is that if I'm not missing, those are german Junkers (pronounced Yunkers) Ju 87s, so I assumed it was basically saying instead of bombing the ground, they were bombing the heavens. I guess referring to the cruelty of the nazis and how I might guess that that is the time the Lord in Heaven cried the most, due to the sheer amount and mass scale of the evil being committed, so not only was man killing each other, it was also sort of an "attack" on God. That or the bombs are coming back to the planes, basically killing themselves as many nazi generals did.
Lyrics: Мне кажется порою, что солдаты С кровавых не пришедшие полей, Не в землю нашу полегли когда-то, А превратились в белых журавлей. Они до сей поры с времен тех дальних Летят и подают нам голоса. Не потому ль так часто и печально Мы замолкаем глядя в небеса? Летит, летит по небу клин усталый, Летит в тумане на исходе дня. И в том строю есть промежуток малый - Быть может это место для меня. Настанет день и журавлиной стаей Я поплыву в такой же сизой мгле. Из-под небес по-птичьи окликая Всех вас, кого оставил на земле. Мне кажется порою, что солдаты С кровавых не пришедшие полей, Не в землю нашу полегли когда-то, А превратились в белых журавлей.
@@B0CT0K Sometimes it seems to me that they are soldiers They did not come from bloody fields, They did not fall in our land once, And they turned into white cranes. They are still from those distant times They fly and give us votes. That is not why it is so often and sadly Do we fall silent looking at the sky? Flying, flying across the sky is a fixed wedge, Flying into the fog at the end of the day. And in that order there is a small gap - Maybe this place is for me. The day will come with a bunch of cranberries I will swim in the same gray fog. A bird's call from under the sky All of you whom he left on earth. Sometimes it seems to me that they are soldiers They did not come from bloody fields, They did not fall in our land once, And they turned into white cranes.
Here is The Cranes lyrics in English (my translation): Sometimes it seems to me that the soldiers Who never came back from the bloody battlefields Have not fallen down, nor have they been buried But have turned into white cranes. Since long ago and up to the present, They fly up there and call us out. Maybe this is why, so often and so sadly, We fall silent and quietly look in the sky. It flies up there, that weary V-shaped formation, It flies in the fog at the end of the day, And there is a small gap in it, Maybe it's a spot for me. My day will come, and I will fly with that flock In a similar blue haze, Calling out, in the bird language, All of you whom I will have left on earth.
Who didn't know: This song is dedicated to one North Ossetian family. Mother and Father sent 7 of their children to war, and all 7 did not return, at first the father could not stand it, and then the mother.
Не знаю. Может перевод не верный? Там другое поётся. Солдату кажется что его товарищи такие же солдаты не умерли на поле во время боя, а превратилесь в белых журавлей. Они летят и подают голоса ему и другим оставшимся в живых. Потом летит по небу клин усталый, и там есть промежуток между птицами. Этому солдату кажется что этот промежуток сделан для него. Дальше он поёт что настанет день и он тоже превратится в белого журавля и полетит к своим погибшим боевым товарищам. То есть умрёт и как бы отправится на тот свет. Точно так же будит окликать всех тех кто останется на земле.
@@ВладимирРеволюционер версия рассказывает о некой семье Газдановых из небольшого села в Северной Осетии. Семеро сыновей семейства погибли на фронте за время войны, и родители не выдержали тяжести свалившегося на них горя. В 1963 году власти поставили в селе обелиск, изображавший пожилую женщину и семь улетающих от неё птиц. Согласно этой версии, Гамзатов увидел памятник и написал своё творение под впечатлением об истории о погибших солдатах.
As you wander the ruined streets of the city you think back on what was the point. For months you’ve been forced to watch as your friends died in vain for piles of rubble now held by the enemy. You have had enough, you begin walking down the streets not going in any particular direction. You walk doing your best to avoid friend and foe alike. As you go the sounds of fighting become increasingly muffled as you retreat into your own thoughts. For you all that you can think to do is walk. And so you do. You walk off into obscurity, just another soldier, missing in action.
In Russia, many kindergartens and schools hold events on May 9 in memory of those killed in the Great Patriotic War. I remember when I heard this song in school, it was hard to make me cry, but this song was able to do it
That is so much better than what I got in the USA. We were just taught that Hitler was bad, and we saved Europe with help from our allies. The Soviets were only a footnote. It just felt glorified, instead of being treated as the visceral tragedy it is.
@@lemagicbaguette1917 Be glad the Soviets were even a footnote. Here in the Netherlands, it's even worse. Just like you, we're taught that the 3rd Reich was incredibly bad and that the occupied years were also absolutely abhorrent. After that, it simply skips to the liberation of the Netherlands in great detail. How it was a glorious force of American, Canadian and Polish troops aided by the awesome Dutch resistance liberated the nation. Then without mention of the fall of the 3rd Reich or the liberation of the rest of Europe, it simply cuts to the rebuilding process of the 50s and 60s before moving on to the Cold War. Crazy how history can be taught from only 1 perspective. I guess the old saying rings true once more: 'History is written by the hands of the victor.' A tragedy, truly.
@@lemagicbaguette1917 Indonesia ever worse. We never learn about WW2. Even when WW2 that's only about the defeat of Nederland by Japanese and Japanese occupied and movement to make Indonesia as puppet state by chose Soekarno as the leader. But after the defeat of Japanese in 15th August 1945, 2 days later we proclaimed as independent country without any help by colonial in any word we freedom by our power but that's only to be fooled the people who had low iq and believe in any mystic (especially Javanese/they believe to predictions of king Jayabaya of Kediri: "after yellow skinned man conquer java as long of corn life we get the freedom") Id history more crazy because politiced and propagandize everything even in history learning (example like glorification of Pancasila ideology/mixed of capitalism, socialism, and religionism) and now the multiculturalism in Indonesia threat by Ba'alawi people (Yemen immigrant specificaly came from town called Tarim Hadramaut where they claimed as descendants of Rasulullah) who bias everything even at history who claimed the proclamator also the 1st president Soekarno had been choosen by Habaib (honourary title which had bloodline of Rasulullah/prophet Muhammad) and Indonesia are independence because of the power of Yemenian Habaib

Они летят, свершают путь свой длинный И выкликают чьи-то имена. Не потому ли с кличем журавлиным От века речь аварская сходна? Летит, летит по небу клин усталый - Летит в тумане на исходе дня, И в том строю есть промежуток малый - Быть может, это место для меня! Настанет день, и с журавлиной стаей Я поплыву в такой же сизой мгле, Из-под небес по-птичьи окликая Всех вас, кого оставил на земле.
Thank you for this, it makes it much easier to truly listen to the meaning. For all the ugliness involving Russia recently, it is always beautiful to hear the true soul of its people. Well wishes from America friend.

One of my favorite songs of all times. Here, however, the addition of gunfire is rather odd as it doesn't quite jive with the mood and lyrics. The song places us at a time after the war when we remember and miss those who never returned from distant battlefields. The war is long over, the guns are silent, but what's left is this immense void in our souls left by sons, husbands, brothers and friends whom we'll never see again, who, like the white cranes above, are already in another realm, still so vivid but unreachable.
think of it this way; The war is over, the guns are silent, our close ones are gone, but in your head, the maschine gun fire never ceased. Artillery shells are still dropping even 20 years after war is over that is ptsd.
The White Cranes Sometimes it seems to me, each fallen soldier, Who never came back home from fields of gore, In fact, did never perish, as they told you, But turned into a crane as white as snow. And ever since those days in their due season We’ve seen them soaring high across the sky, With distant voices giving us a reason To stand in tears and watch them flying by. A wedge of cranes is fading in the distance. So far away I can no longer see. When I run out of days of my existence, I hope those cranes will find a gap for me That I may soar above my pain and anguish And join their ranks like many years ago Recalling all their names in my new language And names of those whom I have left below. Sometimes it seems to me, each fallen soldier, Who never came back home from fields of gore, In fact, did never perish, as they told you, But turned into a crane as white as snow. Translated into English by Boris Anisimov

This is like when I was a kid and saw that museum exhibit ww2 through Russian eyes. The eastern front and its urban fighting as a child completed some strange fantasy of door to door city fighting I had in my head.
Когда я слушаю эту военную музыку, всегда хочется плакать. Будто это уже заложено в генах, и ты чувствуешь всю ту невыносимую боль которые испытали, и почувствовали все. И я даже не видел своего прадеда который воевал, он умер за год до моего рождения. И нет тех людей сплоченных и сильных. Готовые сражаться за свою семью и родину. Сотни национальностей, десятки миллионов смертей. И много страдания.
4:00 I like this part here, it's like a hero in a war story that at the end get caught by a machinegun, and when he dies there is this pling sound at the end of the machinegun burst, I know, make no sense, but I like to imagine that this is the story because in my country there was a WW2 war veteran very known here, that died that way.
does anybody else got a nostalgic feeling listening to this? I find it weird because ive never lived in such conditions yet it moves smth idk how and why?

For those who don't know: this was a poem made by Rasul Gamzatov (sung by Mark Bernes) about a girl, that had suffered from leukemia after the nuclear explosion in Hiroshima. Her name was Sadako Sasaki. She hoped that she would heal if she made a thousand paper cranes using origami. In Asia, there's a belief that a person's wish will happen if they fold a thousand of origami pieces - cranes. Sadly, she succumbed to the disease in 1955 with her family by her bedside, even though she had folded well over a thousand paper birds.
You are wrong, dear friend. This song is about Soviet warriors that never came back home. It starts from “Sometimes it feels like the soldiers, that haven’t came back from bloody battlefields, didn’t lie down in earth but turned into cranes”
It would not have occurred to a Russian person to add any additional sounds to this song. And you like it like a hot spice in food. We are still too different.

if I'm not mistaken, Rasul Gamzatov, when he visited the Japanese city of Hiroshima, saw a monument to a girl who made 1000 cranes out of paper. when the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, this girl fell ill with radiation sickness.

Да здравствует великая Родина, со славой и гордостью они должны помнить о своей жертве, нельзя допустить, чтобы манипуляции Запада были действенными, русский народ не должен отказываться от единства, он должен помнить кровавую историю, которая делает его таким, какой он есть, что их жертва не напрасна, да здравствует великая Россия.

Mne kazhetsya poroyu, chto soldaty, S krovavykh ne prishedshiye poley, Ne v zemlyu etu polegli kogda-to, A prevratilis' v belykh zhuravley.

Song “Cranes” performed by Russian Soviet singer and actor Mark Bernes. “Cranes” is a song, music by Russian Soviet composer Jan Frenkel with lyrics by Dagestan poet Rasul Gamzatov translated into Russian by Naum Grebnev. One of the best and most popular Russian-language songs about war in the homeland and throughout the world[1]. “...The words of this song... had a specific address - to the millions who fell and did not return from the battlefields of the Patriotic War. P.s In 1969 Makr Bernes saw an article in the magazine “New World”, a poem by the poet Rasul Gamzatov “Cranes”. Mark Bernes immediately decides that the music for the cranes should be written by composer Jan Frenkel…

Lyrics in English:
Sometimes it seems to me that the soldiers who did not come from the bloody fields did not once die in our land, but turned into white cranes. They still fly and give us voices from those distant times. Is that why we fall silent so often and become sad, while looking at the heavens? A tired wedge flies, flies across the sky, flies in the fog at the end of the day. And in that formation there is a small gap. Perhaps this is the place for me. The day will come, and with a flock of cranes I will sail in the same gray haze From under the heavens, like a bird, calling out to everyone, whom I left on earth. It sometimes seems to me that the soldiers who did not return from the bloody fields did not once die in our land, but turned into white cranes.

There is a certain, undying sadness that echos throughout Russian music, literature, culture, philosophy, and art that I think we can all connect to in some way. The Russian language is beautiful. More than that, though, the Russian people have an indestructable morale. They somehow find a way to withstand the most depressing of circumstances. It’s beautiful. Have a nice day everyone. I’m just rambling.
Immortal Regiment
There is such a thing. Not only immortal sorrow (where would it come from), it would seem...
That is, because in Russia we were always relied on ourselves: on 10 leaders there were only 2-4 which been working for their country. We didn't get any colonies for cheap work force or resources, this land was all we have. Just a bunch of towns, a lot of villages, a bunch of talented peoples and very small level of technology. Our future almost always comes with sadness, but we were pushing it together, hand by hand, shoulder to shoulder. And we firstly found it only in 19th century, when industrial revolution knock to our doors with 40-60 years of backlog to Europe. Then there was a Great War, which gave birth to two revolutions: 1st one was made by idiots, which just keep lying to us for 7-8 months. 2nd one was made by people which completed their promises, but with cost SUCH great, so we still can not fully believe what we made right choice. By the way, 20th century was a golden age for Russia and other countries of USSR.
This could be not that truly history (because my English is not that good and what I prefer to learn history of last two centuries). But I hope I gave ya a kind of understanding how our (and other countries of Russian Empire, and USS republics) history feels to me. (btw, I think what people with better middle-age history knowledge will say more)
This brings up many interesting points. The people of Russia are beautiful. I must say though, as someone who has spent nearly their entire life researching history, thay I cannot agree with you on the state of the USSR. I do agree that the Soviet Union had it’s golden age but, it started out as a bloody massacre. I, myself, am a socialist. But, Stalin was a fascist dictator who ruled with force. Millions of his own country men dead at his hands. He was a fascist under the guise of socialism. He replaced community with the party. This is not an attack on the people of eastern Europe, however. Again, I acknowledge that the USSR had it’s golden age. It also had it’s downfall.. At the end of the day, I believe that the ideal system for human prosperity would be a socialist, democratic, libertarian, republic. People governing themselves and taking care of eachother. Earning their way into society by participating and making their community a better place.
@@jarethrowe1126 your opinion, friend. I do believe what ideal system for humanity would be social-democracy, because traditional free-trade democracy brought us to current state: consumerism society which works just like "Hive" concept from science-fiction - race, living with only one target: consume everything in the universe until there will be only dead worlds in cold stars.
@@jarethrowe1126 я не знаю английского, надеюсь это нам не помешает. Ваше мнение имеет право на существование, но считать Сталина тираном-диктатором, которого можно сравнивать с Гитлером... Может у меня получиться Вас переубедить. Сначала необходимо брать во внимание то время и те условия в которых Сталин брал власть в свои руки. Не зря говорят, что Сталин принял страну с принял страну с сохой, а оставил с ядерной бомбой, ведь по сути-то так-то оно так и есть. После Великой войны, после Великой Октябрьской революции, после контрреволюции, интервенции стран Запада с армиями победившими Германию в окопах Первой Мировой войны, после такой бойни страна была вся в руинах. По всей её обширной территории происходили бои, которые оставили себя чудовищные последствия.
В 1924 году предводитель революции, по сути - отец всего народа за которым шли десятки миллионов умирает, оставив стране неопределённость и туманное будущее. В это время к власти приходит Сталин. Его главная идея в самом начале - обеспечить народ товарами народного потребления, закончить электрификацию всей страны. На XIV съезде партии курс кардинально изменился. Теперь главная цель всего народа - индустриализация. На этом съезде выступил Михаил Николаевич Тухачевский со своим докладом о начавшейся милитаризацией стран Запада - Франции и Великобритании. Начался процесс индустриализации ударными темпами, наращивание оборонной промышленности. Такая обширная индустриализация требовала гения-руководителя роль которого возглавил Иосиф Виссарионович. Менее чем за 15 лет произошло невозможное. Рост экономики составил 13.5% в год!!! Это мировой рекорд для всей планеты. Говорить о том, какие возможности открылись перед населением, не считаю нужным. К 36 году СССР был безусловным лидером на материке, а к 37 году окончательно сложилась профессиональная армия, вооружённая по последнему слову техники. Более половины всего командного состава - коммунисты, верные товарищи своих подчинённых. В высших военных кругах стоят большие патриоты своей Родины, которые каждый день тратят максимум усилий для укрепления рубежей страны.
По поводу чисток - это было ужасно. Множество миллионов погибли. Но поверьте на слово, товарищ Сталин в этом не виноват. В высших кругах чистки устраивали сотрудники НКВД, которые подчинялись наркому внутренних дел СССР, то есть - Ежову, потом Ягоде, опять Ежову и затем с 38 года - Берии. Они все отсчитывались перед Сталиным и он сам на них опирался. Как итог - в 38 расстреляли Ягоду, в 40 - Ежова, а Берия погиб позже Сталина, но тоже из-за раскалённого свинца во лбу - в 1955 году от рук КГБшников, которых отправил такой же предатель как и он сам - Никита Сергеевич Хрущёв.
Что же происходило у народа? Было время когда было крайне жутко и, действительно, можно было сравнивать только с немецкой оккупацией. По словам моей бабушки, которая застала свою бабушку (мою прапрабабушку) дело было такое... "Как пришли на Дон большевики, так сразу установили свои советы по всем станицам и призывали всех казаков, русских и украинцев туда захаживать. Мой отец был казаком настоящим и гордым, не хотел порочить честь семьи и ни в каких политических играл не принимал участия. Тогда в станице мы жили в разы лучше остальных, при империи нам никто не мешал работать и своим трудом мы ухаживали за полем, скотом и дичью. Рос тогда у нас и виноград и бахча и тыквы и всё-всё-всё что душе угодно, это было хорошее время для казаков не участвующих в Гражданской войне. Это мы трудились не покладая рук, да были среди наших соседей и те, кто уж точно даже не думал о подобном времени препровождении. Те, кто спал под заборами, просил милостыню и её же на самогон менял. Вот именно такие и шли в эти советы, где им с радостью давали задачу и ставили цель - собрать со станицы всё оружие и столько-то хлеба да зерна. Вот тут-то и понеслось. Мы ничего не могли поделать с тем, что всё нажитое честным трудом уходило от нас изо дня в день. А всё из-за того, что прятать то было бесполезно - он-то из наших и всё про всех знал. Слава Богу мой отец был человеков умным и крайне образованным, мы засаливали резали часть скота, засаливали мясо и прятали под землёй. Ели мы только по ночам. Однажды мы даже чуть не поплатились за то, что сильно засиделись до утра. Во дворе стоял стойкий запах борща, и когда он вошёл в курень нам пришлось сказать что мы ничего не знаем. После обыска у нас он отправился по другим домам, где расстрелял отца многодетного семейства... Это было очень жутко. В 39 году его показательно расстреляли и с того времени всё пошло в гору. Никто уже не боялся и мы снова обзавелись каким-никаким хозяйством и дела бы так и дальше улучшались, если бы не война... Опять и снова эти разруха, голод, смерть вперемешку со страхом. Моя семья, как и у других, прошла через ужас. Я сама осталась жива только из-за того, что моя мать подстригла меня налысо и соврала нацистам что я больна сифилисом, чего они боялись больше всего." Надеюсь вы уже поняли, что товарищ Сталин физически за такими мелочами не мог уследить. Он очень многое сделал для страны и даже для всего мира, но мы проиграли в первый день войны, даже не поняв этого.

This came on my youtube mix while driving on an empty and rainy mountain highway under storm clouds that were underlit by a dying sunset. One of the most powerful moments for me this year.
If anyone’s wondering: this song wrote Rassul Gamzatov- the USSR poet, he decided to write this song when he saw a memorial to a little girl with crane toys in Hiroshima ( the girl believed that her cranes will save her from the bomb ), on his way back to home he received a telegram with message that his mother died. When he finally came to his home he wrote this song in his national language, which a bit after was translated to Russian and this song became anti-war symbol, many monumental with cranes were open all over the globe.
How did you find that fact? It’s interesting

I hardly understood that but I assume you're talking about the painting. All I could make sense of it is that if I'm not missing, those are german Junkers (pronounced Yunkers) Ju 87s, so I assumed it was basically saying instead of bombing the ground, they were bombing the heavens. I guess referring to the cruelty of the nazis and how I might guess that that is the time the Lord in Heaven cried the most, due to the sheer amount and mass scale of the evil being committed, so not only was man killing each other, it was also sort of an "attack" on God. That or the bombs are coming back to the planes, basically killing themselves as many nazi generals did.

They did not come from bloody fields,
They did not fall in our land once,
And they turned into white cranes.
They are still from those distant times
They fly and give us votes.

Do we fall silent looking at the sky?
Flying, flying across the sky is a fixed wedge,
Flying into the fog at the end of the day.
And in that order there is a small gap -

The day will come with a bunch of cranberries
I will swim in the same gray fog.

Here is The Cranes lyrics in English (my translation):
Sometimes it seems to me that the soldiers
Who never came back from the bloody battlefields
Have not fallen down, nor have they been buried
But have turned into white cranes.
Since long ago and up to the present,
They fly up there and call us out.
Maybe this is why, so often and so sadly,
We fall silent and quietly look in the sky.
It flies up there, that weary V-shaped formation,
It flies in the fog at the end of the day,
And there is a small gap in it,
Maybe it's a spot for me.
My day will come, and I will fly with that flock
In a similar blue haze,
Calling out, in the bird language,
All of you whom I will have left on earth.
Thats what we call art.
This song is the peak of death and sadness combined.

This song is dedicated to one North Ossetian family. Mother and Father sent 7 of their children to war, and all 7 did not return, at first the father could not stand it, and then the mother.

Солдату кажется что его товарищи такие же солдаты не умерли на поле во время боя, а превратилесь в белых журавлей. Они летят и подают голоса ему и другим оставшимся в живых.
Потом летит по небу клин усталый, и там есть промежуток между птицами. Этому солдату кажется что этот промежуток сделан для него. Дальше он поёт что настанет день и он тоже превратится в белого журавля и полетит к своим погибшим боевым товарищам. То есть умрёт и как бы отправится на тот свет. Точно так же будит окликать всех тех кто останется на земле.

As you wander the ruined streets of the city you think back on what was the point. For months you’ve been forced to watch as your friends died in vain for piles of rubble now held by the enemy. You have had enough, you begin walking down the streets not going in any particular direction. You walk doing your best to avoid friend and foe alike. As you go the sounds of fighting become increasingly muffled as you retreat into your own thoughts. For you all that you can think to do is walk. And so you do. You walk off into obscurity, just another soldier, missing in action.

How it was a glorious force of American, Canadian and Polish troops aided by the awesome Dutch resistance liberated the nation.

One of my favorite songs of all times. Here, however, the addition of gunfire is rather odd as it doesn't quite jive with the mood and lyrics. The song places us at a time after the war when we remember and miss those who never returned from distant battlefields. The war is long over, the guns are silent, but what's left is this immense void in our souls left by sons, husbands, brothers and friends whom we'll never see again, who, like the white cranes above, are already in another realm, still so vivid but unreachable.
think of it this way; The war is over, the guns are silent, our close ones are gone, but in your head, the maschine gun fire never ceased. Artillery shells are still dropping even 20 years after war is over
that is ptsd.
The war never ends for some. 💔
The White Cranes
Sometimes it seems to me, each fallen soldier,
Who never came back home from fields of gore,
In fact, did never perish, as they told you,
But turned into a crane as white as snow.
And ever since those days in their due season
We’ve seen them soaring high across the sky,
With distant voices giving us a reason
To stand in tears and watch them flying by.
A wedge of cranes is fading in the distance.
So far away I can no longer see.
When I run out of days of my existence,
I hope those cranes will find a gap for me
That I may soar above my pain and anguish
And join their ranks like many years ago
Recalling all their names in my new language
And names of those whom I have left below.
Sometimes it seems to me, each fallen soldier,
Who never came back home from fields of gore,
In fact, did never perish, as they told you,
But turned into a crane as white as snow.

As a native Russian speaker I am telling you, that is a really great translation
beautiful brother! thank you very much for uploading upload more like this you are fantastic
Danke mein comrade I will in due time
So that you understand, this pain of loss that our country has experienced is passed on with mother’s milk for generations... That’s why after so many years we remember, we grieve, we cry (at the cellular level) and are grateful that they gave us life!!!
This song fits perfectly with the movie from Studio Ghibli The wind rises.
Лучше посмотри: "В бой идут одни старики".

I don’t understand the planes flying upside down
@@Advisedpanda_from_ChechnyaThe inverted planes in the painting can be interpreted as symbols of a violation of the usual order or as an allegory for the complexity of the modern world, in which everything is not as it seems at first glance.

Humanity will never learn to love each other 😭
Nobody can and nobody will that’s life
You lose men that’s war
“It isn’t fair” that’s apart of life
As someone who has lost 8 people to combat you just learn deal with it and move on no one cares about what you do or say in war you don’t fight for yourself you fight for the man beside you that’s war
Deal with it
@@Advisedpanda_from_Chechnyawar is like a bunch of old people arguing
And then all the generations die for them while they sit at their desks and get everything they want

This is like when I was a kid and saw that museum exhibit ww2 through Russian eyes. The eastern front and its urban fighting as a child completed some strange fantasy of door to door city fighting I had in my head.
Когда я слушаю эту военную музыку, всегда хочется плакать. Будто это уже заложено в генах, и ты чувствуешь всю ту невыносимую боль которые испытали, и почувствовали все. И я даже не видел своего прадеда который воевал, он умер за год до моего рождения. И нет тех людей сплоченных и сильных. Готовые сражаться за свою семью и родину. Сотни национальностей, десятки миллионов смертей. И много страдания.
4:00 I like this part here, it's like a hero in a war story that at the end get caught by a machinegun, and when he dies there is this pling sound at the end of the machinegun burst, I know, make no sense, but I like to imagine that this is the story because in my country there was a WW2 war veteran very known here, that died that way.
Awesome singer! love his voice very much
Мне 20 лет, я еду в автобусе в другой город слушаю эту песню и по щекам текут слёзы 😭

does anybody else got a nostalgic feeling listening to this? I find it weird because ive never lived in such conditions yet it moves smth idk how and why?
A sense of nostalgia can only cause foreigners who listen to it for the first time.
@@ДмитрийАлексеевич-л7р It's not true, I'm from Russia myself, and songs written about the hardships of war cause me feelings of nostalgia
I cant believe the bombers were from Australia.
I can't fathom how anyone away from war can look at the soldier and feel anything but pity.
Помню, пел я эту песню на 9 мая в школьном хоре.
Беззаботные были дни.
I'm from Egypt and the song touch my heart despite i don't know russian language
This is song is so good but we need a version where there's no background so that it looks like he's a war solider sitting in night
Respect to our ancestors who fought against nazism. Polish resistance fighters, Danish resistance fighters, French, Soviet soldiers, Chinese soldiers, Yugoslav partizans, Italian partizans, American and british soldiers, respect to all of those who dared to fight the nazi regime.
Why is China in there if the Sino German cooperation existed
Brazilian pracinhas as well
Sorry but no respect from me.
My grandma was one of Yugoslavian partizans. She had a bullet hole on her leg
As a persian who their great grandmother and ancestors who suffered in hands of Soviet soldiers and English army I can not pay respect for they killed us in cold blood
Whenever I hear this song I cry remembering all our soldiers who gave their lives so that we could live.
And soldiers who killed them, and were killed too, also died so that their people would live. So who is evil, and who is hero?
Именно поэтому у тебя зетки в нике?
мурашки
Звуки боя на фоне убили всю мою сдержанность и заставили рыдать как обиженного младенца
Очень передают атмосферу, мне приятно слышать такие звуки на фоне если песня подходит под тематику
Believe me I closed my eyes and felt inside the battle
even though im a kid and dont understand a lot of russian, i feel the pain of the soldiers and the nightmares they had while trying to sleep.
sometimes I am very proud that I am of the same nation and live in the same republic in which the author of this work lived.
Мне кажется, порою, что солдаты,
It seems to me sometimes that the soldiers,
С кровавых непришедшие полей,
That didn't come from the bloody fields,
Не в землю нашу полегли когда-то,
Aren't perished in our earth once,
А превратились в белых журавлей.
But they turned into white cranes.
Они до сей поры с времён тех дальних,
They're still from the time of those distant,
Летят и подают нам голоса,
Fly and give us signs, so we can hear them,
И потому так часто и печально
And that's why we so often sadly,
Мы замолкаем, глядя в небеса.
Fall silent, looking up at the sky.
Летит, летит по небу клин усталый.
A tired wedge is flying, flying across the sky,
Летит в тумане на исходе дня.
Through the fog at the end of the day.
И в том строю есть промежуток малый,
And there is a small gap in that formation,
Быть может, это место для меня.
Maybe this is the place for me.
Настанет день, и в журавлиной стае,
The day will come, and in the crane flock,
Я поплыву в такой же сизой мгле.
I will swim in the same bluish haze.
Из-под небес по птичьи окликая,
Calling out from the sky like a bird,
Всех вас кого оставил на земле.
All of you whom I left on earth.
Мне кажется, порою, что солдаты,
It seems to me sometimes that the soldiers,
С кровавых, не пришедшие полей,
That didn't come from the bloody fields,
Не в землю нашу полегли когда-то,
Aren't perished in our earth once,
А превратились в белых журавлей.
But they turned into white cranes.

Самая печальная и красивая музыка той войны 😢
BRO IS SAVING THE GROUND FROM BEING HIT❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
I don't understand why you are so happy, this song is about World War II, then my country lost 20-30 sillion people, my grandfathers fought for my future
Translation:
Sometimes it seems to me that the soldiers, who did not return from the bloody fields, did not once die in our land, but turned into white cranes.
To this day, from those distant times, they fly and give us their voices. Is this why we fall silent so often and sadly, looking at the heavens?
A tired wedge flies and flies across the sky, Flies in the fog at the end of the day, And in that formation there is a small gap,
Perhaps this is the place for me. The day will come, and with a flock of cranes I will swim in the same gray haze, calling out from under the heavens like a bird to all of you whom I left on earth. Sometimes it seems to me that the soldiers who did not return from the bloody fields did not once die in our land, but turned into white cranes...
If being able to pilot a plane and drop bombs takes skill, I can’t even imagine how hard it is to catch the bombs!
The bombs are dropping planes.
For those who don't know: this was a poem made by Rasul Gamzatov (sung by Mark Bernes) about a girl, that had suffered from leukemia after the nuclear explosion in Hiroshima.
Her name was Sadako Sasaki. She hoped that she would heal if she made a thousand paper cranes using origami. In Asia, there's a belief that a person's wish will happen if they fold a thousand of origami pieces - cranes. Sadly, she succumbed to the disease in 1955 with her family by her bedside, even though she had folded well over a thousand paper birds.
At least she didn't give up untill her last breath. Not everybody is able to do this in the face of inevitable end.
😥
😶
You are wrong, dear friend. This song is about Soviet warriors that never came back home.
It starts from “Sometimes it feels like the soldiers, that haven’t came back from bloody battlefields, didn’t lie down in earth but turned into cranes”
You are wrong. The song are you talking about is Splin's "Daughter of samurai" which was wrote in 2012.
❤
i like how the planes are bombing heaven
Man fuck them angels bruh “ungravities bombs”
It would not have occurred to a Russian person to add any additional sounds to this song. And you like it like a hot spice in food.
We are still too different.
Okey WOW i discovered this song yesterday night but i listened to it again today and my god... the sound effects are so good i had to double check my city wasn't being bombed, it really sounded like it was 😭

Мне кажется порою, что солдаты,
С кровавых не пришедшие полей,
Не в землю эту полегли когда-то,
А превратились в белых журавлей.
Сегодня, предвечернею порою,
Я вижу, как в тумане журавли
Летят своим определенным строем,
Как по полям людьми они брели.
Летит, летит по небу клин усталый -
Летит в тумане на исходе дня,
И в том строю есть промежуток малый -
Быть может, это место для меня!
Настанет день, и с журавлиной стаей
Я поплыву в такой же сизой мгле,
Из-под небес по-птичьи окликая
Всех вас, кого оставил на земле.
Мне кажется порою, что солдаты,
С кровавых не пришедшие полей,
Не в землю эту полегли когда-то,
А превратились в белых журавлей.

Lyrics on russian:
Mne kazhetsya poroyu, chto soldaty
S krovavykh ne prishedshiye poley,
Ne v zemlyu nashu polegli kogda-to,
A prevratilis' v belykh zhuravley.
Oni do sey pory s vremen tekh dal'nikh
Letyat i podayut nam golosa.
Ne potomu l' tak chasto i pechal'no
My zamolkayem glyadya v nebesa?
Letit, letit po nebu klin ustalyy,
Letit v tumane na iskhode dnya.
I v tom stroyu yest' promezhutok malyy -
Byt' mozhet eto mesto dlya menya.
Nastanet den' i zhuravlinoy stayey
YA poplyvu v takoy zhe sizoy mgle.
Iz-pod nebes po-ptich'i oklikaya
Vsekh vas, kogo ostavil na zemle.
Mne kazhetsya poroyu, chto soldaty
S krovavykh ne prishedshiye poley,
Ne v zemlyu nashu polegli kogda-to,
A prevratilis' v belykh zhuravley.
Ik this might sound weird but when i have headphones in as i take a deep breath and listen close i can feel the pain... and imaginge my self there
_thanks for sharing; from Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷_
there's no way out. we're doomed
if I'm not mistaken, Rasul Gamzatov, when he visited the Japanese city of Hiroshima, saw a monument to a girl who made 1000 cranes out of paper. when the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, this girl fell ill with radiation sickness. And according to an ancient legend, if you make 1000 paper cranes out of paper, then radiation sickness will go away. But the girl died. And Rasul Gamzatov dedicated this song to that very girl...
this gives me an image that is so terrible
you are overlooking your hometown getting teared to shreds and burned to the ground.

Да здравствует великая Родина, со славой и гордостью они должны помнить о своей жертве, нельзя допустить, чтобы манипуляции Запада были действенными, русский народ не должен отказываться от единства, он должен помнить кровавую историю, которая делает его таким, какой он есть, что их жертва не напрасна, да здравствует великая Россия.
Lo siento

@@FRAPP1 Чтобы ты сгнил в канаве. Не только русский народ выиграл эту войну.

Или напомнить как украинские части черезе днепр переходили в 44? Или Ерёменко вспомнить, а может Тимошенко? А может рассказать про Брежнева и Ворошилова?
was listening this while walking back home, forgot about the gunfire sounds in the background and actually thought there was a terrorist attack nearby...💀
Even tho i don't understand the lyrics, this is one of the most beautiful things i've ever heard. Grabbing your coffee in a dark night with this song playing, so good... How can a song that's probably about war with gunfires in background can give peace and calmness...

Song “Cranes” performed by Russian Soviet singer and actor Mark Bernes.
“Cranes” is a song, music by Russian Soviet composer Jan Frenkel with lyrics by Dagestan poet Rasul Gamzatov translated into Russian by Naum Grebnev. One of the best and most popular Russian-language songs about war in the homeland and throughout the world[1]. “...The words of this song... had a specific address - to the millions who fell and did not return from the battlefields of the Patriotic War.
P.s In 1969 Makr Bernes saw an article in the magazine “New World”, a poem by the poet Rasul Gamzatov “Cranes”. Mark Bernes immediately decides that the music for the cranes should be written by composer Jan Frenkel…
Why is this so easy to sing along to even though i don't speak Russian?
