| Полки идут стеной,
Красиво держат строй И гордо шелестят знамена, Комбат и рядовой - единою судьбой Мы связаны навек, друг мой. Служить России суждено тебе и мне, служить России - удивительной стране, Где солнце новое встает на небе синем Плечо к плечу идут Российские войска, И пусть военная дорога нелегка, Мы будем верою и правдою служить России. В бесстрашии атак Спасли мы Русский флаг И дом родной и наши песни. А коль придет беда, с тобою мы тогда Отчизну защитим, друг мой. Служить России суждено тебе и мне, служить России - удивительной стране, Где солнце новое встает на небе синем Плечо к плечу идут Российские войска, И пусть военная дорога нелегка, Мы будем верою и правдою служить России. Полки идут стеной, красиво держат строй и вместе с нами вся Россия И он, и ты, и я - армейская семья и этим мы сильны, друг мой. Служить России суждено тебе и мне, Служить России - удивительной стране, Где солнце новое встает на небе синем Плечо к плечу идут Российские войска, И пусть военная дорога нелегка, Мы будем верою и правдою служить России. Служить России суждено тебе и мне, Служить России - удивительной стране, Где солнце новое встает на небе синем Плечо к плечу идут российские войска, И пусть военная дорога нелегка, Мы будем... служить... России ! |
