`There breaks solemn day of our victory,//Day that will never die` are the final lines of The Oriole written by Nikolai Zabolotsky in 1946. There are many excellent Russian literary texts dedicated to the Great Patriotic War of Russia 1941-1945. Some of them were even translated by me, not only Nikolai Zabolotsky`s `Oriole` http://zhurnal.lib.ru/editors/p/prjahin_a_a/oriole.shtml http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-1VeIQq_M4&feature=player_detailpage but also `Sailor`s cap` by Nikita Verkhovsky http://zhurnal.lib.ru/editors/p/prjahin_a_a/navyhat.shtml The Sweet Beauties Of Russia by Yaroslav Smelyakov http://zhurnal.lib.ru/editors/p/prjahin_a_a/sweetbeautiesofrussia.shtml `Faraway From Home` by Alexei Fatyanov http://zhurnal.lib.ru/editors/p/prjahin_a_a/faraway.shtml `La Valse des Officiers russes` by Mikhail Isakovsky http://zhurnal.lib.ru/editors/p/prjahin_a_a/frontlineforet.shtml `What Made You Feel Love Of Your Motherland?` by Mikhail Matusovsky http://zhurnal.lib.ru/editors/p/prjahin_a_a/motherland.shtml `Lyrical Digression` By Pavel Kogan http://zhurnal.lib.ru/editors/p/prjahin_a_a/lyrdig.shtml `My Dear Man` by Yuri Herrmann http://zhurnal.lib.ru/editors/p/prjahin_a_a/dearman.shtml and `The fate of a man` by Mikhail Sholokhov http://zhurnal.lib.ru/editors/p/prjahin_a_a/fateofman.shtml It`s the Russian literature that the foreign translators are used to avoid, even to ignore through ignorance, of course. But ignorance can`t serve as an excuse for irresponsibility. Besides, `it`s impossible to throw lyrics from the songs` as a Russian proverb reads, the more so because many of the text I`d mentioned above became the famous and hearfelt Russian lyrical songs and some of them even the unexpected military marches. It doesn`t mean that I love all the Russian songs related to V Day topic. Tastes differs. Sometimes a new or fresh arrangement make me re-evaluate, re-open the song. For example, I could never bear that very `Katyusha`, but an excellent German arrangement and performance which I`d found great made me change my opinion https://youtu.be/ZYyEt8y1cDI
