Air Sea Captains The wide open spaces of the air Vast Soviet territory, Obeying Merry Motors, Day and night flying ships. Do not delay their mighty wings Horizontal chain and silence ice Win and shoals and cliffs Captains of ships flying. Chorus: Big country, Home country, From the sea you lay down to the sea. Wherever you go - Everywhere young people, And all winged from birth! The enemy will not spare the unarmed, Wingless and winged beats. We did not build castles of air, We built an air fleet! There is no country where used would appreciate better There is no country where b loved stronger Commanders of the squadron fly, Captains air seas! Chorus. We also have our red flag, There are the great Soviet people. There for we fight the enemies, There is someone to raise the plane! If the enemy dares brazen Go abroad thresholds, Skies turn black over the enemy Tucheyu terrible Stalinist birds! 1937
