There was a war, four terrible years

Владимир Тимофеевич Харитонов
There was a war, four terrible years
 And now it was over.
 I remember my grandfather telling me
 How difficult it was for them there in the war.
 Bombed, destroyed our Russia,
 And again it was restored.
 Now I sit and remember with grief,
 To bring back those who died in the war
