There is nothing better in the world,
Why friends can wander around the world.
Those who are friendly are not afraid of anxiety!
Any road is dear to us!
Any road is dear to us!
Chorus:
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la E! Her! Her!
We will not forget our calling!
We bring laughter and joy to people,
The palaces offer us tempting vaults
Freedom will never be replaced.
Freedom will never be replaced.
Chorus:
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la E! Her! Her!
Our carpet is a flower meadow,
Our walls are giant pine trees,
Our roof is a blue sky,
Our happiness is to live[ru] such a destiny.
Our happiness is to live such a destiny.
Chorus:
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la La-la-la E! Her! Her!
