rise
Origa/Shanti Snyder Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a soldier, znachit ya
I otvyetchik I sud'ya
Ya stoyu na dvukh kontsakh ognya
Ogibaya virazhi, obgonyaya smyert' I zhizn'
Ya byegu srazit'sya s tyen'yu lzhi

skol'ko be nityey nye plyol obman
Pokazhyet lik svyeta istina

Save your tears
For the day
When our pain is far behind
On your feet
Come with me
We are soldiers stand or die

Save your fears
Take your place
Save them for the judgement day
Fast and free
Follow me
Time to make the sacrifice
We rise or fall

I'm a soldier, born to stand
In this waking hell I am
Witnessing more than I can compute

pray myself we don't forget
Lies, betrayed and the oppressed
Please give me the strength to be the truth

people facing the fire together
If we don't, we'll lose all we have found

Save your tears
For the day
When our pain is far behind
On your feet
Come with me
We are soldiers stand or die

Save your fears
Take your place
Save them for the judgement day
Fast and free
Follow me
Time to make the sacrifice
We rise or fall

Za myechtoyu nakray propasti
Lish' tol'ko tak mozhno mir spasti

Ty nye plach',
Slyozy spryach',
Ved' nastanyet novyy den'
Tvoy ogon'
Sogryevat'
Budyet tysyachi syerdets
A syeychas podnimis'
Spryach' podal'shye bol' I strakh
Pobyedit tot, kto prav
Znay, chto vsyo v tvoikh rukakh

Save your tears
For the day
When our pain is far behind
On your feet
Come with me
We are soldiers stand or die

Save your fears
Take your place
Save them for the judgement day
Fast and free
Follow me




Time to make the sacrifice
We rise or fall
