Песня Байкало-Амурской магистрали - Song Of The Baikal–Amur Mainline (English Lyrics)

"Song of the Baikal–Amur Mainline" also known as the "BAM Song" or simply "Baikal–Amur Mainline", is a Soviet propaganda song from 1975 regarding the construction of railway line known as the Baikal–Amur Mainline, stretching from Siberia's Baikal Lake to the Amur River in the far-east of the Soviet Union. Written by Oscar Feltsman and Robert Rozhdestvensky, the lyrics tell of the hardships the workers constructing the long railway line will endure out of a voluntary longing to serve and better their country, and of the many coming trains that will cross this new and grand railway line they toiled on.

текст
Байкало-Амурская магистраль!

Солнце в небе светит мудро,
Молодеет древний край.
От Байкала до Амура
Мы проложим магистраль.

Встретим зябкие рассветы,
Встретим долгую пургу.
В биографию планеты
Впишем мы свою строку.

Припев (2 раза):
Слышишь время гудит БАМ!
На просторах крутых БАМ!
И большая тайга покоряется нам.
Слышишь время гудит БАМ!
На просторах крутых БАМ!
Этот колокол наших сердец молодых.

Будет нам порою трудно,
Но земле любимой в дар
Лягут рельсы, будто струны
Наших песенных гитар.

Солнце в небе светит мудро,
Молодеет древний край.
От Байкала до Амура
Мы проложим магистраль.

Припев (2 раза).

Байкало-Амурская магистраль!

Modern artists: You can't just make music about any random thing and make it sound good!
Soviet composers: allow us to introduce ourselves.

There comes a time when you have played so much Crisis in the Kremlin this song, its melody and lyrics, become stuck in one's mind and it becomes the only song they can think about...

0:45 You have a mistake in subtitles. The singer sang not "we will write our names". He sang "we will write our line" (В биографию планеты, впишем мы свою строку)

Hey man, I can give you some translations of Afghan songs from the Communist era if you’d like.

When you bring back a descendant of the Romanovs to rule over a independent Tuva. And after finally taking over Mongolia you’re next task is to build a transmongolian highway before the Soviets invade.
