The Vast Sky .
The Vast Sky After a scenario by Robert Rozhdestvensky
What I tell you, comrade, cannot be forgotten,
There once were two friends who served in one squadron,
And in both their service and in their hearts true
There was one vast sky, one sky for two.
Homes loomed up before them - but they stayed inside,
To reach the green forest the friends did decide.
"We’ll take death away from this town," they declared,
"Let us be destroyed, but the city be spared."
What I tell you, comrade, cannot be forgotten,
There once were two friends who served in one squadron,
And in both their service and in their hearts true
There was one vast sky, one sky for two.
