Katusha

 

Katusha | Catherine

As the morning mist over the river
Fills the blooming orchards far and wide 
And the trees with a morning chill still quiver, 
Catherine walks out to the riverside.

She comes singing songs about an eagle
Soaring proudly in the sky above 
And the one in the service of his people
Whom young Catherine genuinely loves.

May her songs fly over the valley
Rising high to ring out loud and clear.
May they follow her letters she can't tally 
To that soldier on the far frontier.

He will see her standing by the water.
He will hear her songs from up above.
As he keeps vigil to protect our borders,
His sweet Catherine will preserve their love.

As the morning mist over the river
Fills the blooming orchards far and wide 
And the trees with a morning chill still quiver, 
Catherine walks out to the riverside.
