On the Nameless Height - battle in the mountains WW2
Smoke fled from groves beneath the mountain
The sun was setting in the blaze
There has been three of us remaining
Out of the other eighteen guys
How many of them, friends so closest
Left in the darkness they had lain
Nearby some unfamiliar settlement
Atop a height that has no name
Shone like a star the fired missile
When it was falling from the sky
Those who have witnessed it at least once
Will not forget until they die
Will not forget it, not forget it
The fierce attacks that happened there
Nearby some unfamiliar settlement
Atop a height that has no name
The Messerschmidts above us circling
As in broad day, were seen so well
But only stronger friends became we
Under the artillery hell
Through hard times that we knew together
We stayed loyal to our aim
Nearby some unfamiliar settlement
Atop a height that has no name
Still am I dreaming of their faces
Those comrades from the years of war
I see our dugout in three layers
A pine on top that has been scorched
As if right now, I stand beside them
Before the fiery edge again
Nearby some unfamiliar settlement
Atop a height that has no name
