• Небо славян
  [ ne-ba sla-vyan]

🔻'Sky of the Slavs' is an amazing patriotic song by a well-known heavy-metal band 'Alica' (2003)

🔻Despite the ambiguous attitude towards the song, this popular composition has been covered many times by a variety of performers: from girls from the Chuvash group “Fedorino Gore” and a children’s choir to pop-folk projects like “Ros”.

• Нам нужна одна победа

SLT: We Need Only Victory

🔻One of the most appealing songs about the Great Patriotic War, 'Нам нужна одна победа' which turned out to be very actual nowadays, was written by the poet and composer Bulat Okudzhava for Andrei Smirnov’s film 'Белорусский Вокзал' (Belorussky Station), which was released in 1971.

• Тёмная ночь
   [tyom-na-ya noch]
   Dark is the night

'Dark is the night' is a lyrical song composed by Nikita Bogoslovsky in 1943 for the Soviet movie about Great Patriotic War 'Two soldiers'.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Тёмная ночь, только пули свистят по степи,
Только ветер гудит в проводах, тускло звёзды мерцают.
В тёмную ночь ты, любимая, знаю, не спишь,
И у детской кроватки тайком ты слезу утираешь.

Как я люблю глубину твоих ласковых глаз,
Как я хочу к ним прижаться сейчас губами!
Тёмная ночь разделяет, любимая, нас,
И тревожная, чёрная степь пролегла между нами.

Верю в тебя, в дорогую подругу мою,
Эта вера от пули меня тёмной ночью хранила...
Радостно мне, я спокоен в смертельном бою,
Знаю встретишь с любовью меня, что б со мной ни случилось.

Смерть не страшна, с ней не раз мы встречались в степи.
Вот и сейчас надо мною она кружится.
Ты меня ждёшь и у детской кроватки не спишь,
И поэтому знаю: со мной ничего не случится!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

• Русь
  [rus']
  Rus'

Also:
• Святая Русь
  [sve-ta-ya rus']
  Saint Rus'

• Россия
  [ra-si-ya]
  Russia

🔻The ancient common name of our state in the XI-XIV centuries was the word 'Русь'.

🔻The word 'Россия' has been regularly used in writing since the 15th century. The sound similarity of these words is not accidental: it is explained by the fact that 'Россия' ultimately goes back to the word 'Русь'.

🔻At the same time, the history of the word 'Россия' reflects the centuries-old cultural and historical relationship between Rus' (Russia) and the Byzantine Empire.

🔻The name 'Россия' goes back to the Greek 'Росиа' (Rosia) - this is how the name of the state of Rus' was conveyed in the Byzantine Empire from the 10th century.

🔻From the end of the 15th century, the term 'Россия' began to be used as the self-name of the Russian state with its center in Moscow.

This is a video clip of the Rybachev family, the finalists of 'Это у нас семейное' the “It’s a family thing” competition.

🔻The video for the song “Lucky” starred mom, dad, their five children, as well as grandparents.

🔻When the Rybachevs told the president about this hit, he asked to send him the song so that it would be shown in the media and “played” on the radio.

Chorus:
🇷🇺
Я — счастливчик,
Потому что у меня большая семья,
Я — счастливчик,
Оттого, что Россия — родина моя.

Я — счастливчик
И за это небеса благодарю,
Я — счастливчик,
Как огонь от радости искрю.

🇬🇧
I am lucky,
Because I have a big family.
I am lucky,
Because Russia is my homeland.
I am lucky
And I thank heaven for this,
I am lucky,
I sparkle like fire with joy!
