blossoms grace the apple trees and pear trees
mist upon the river floated by
down Katyusha came to gather berries
on the cliff top rising steep and high
there she walked and there she started singing
of the dove-grey eagle of the steppe
of the one she had her heart on winning
of the one whose letters she had kept
she sings a song of maiden love declaring
chase the sun and speed without delay
warmest greeting from Katyusha bearing
to the border guardman far away
may the boy his village girl remember
may he hear her love of tenderness
may he guard his native land forever
and Katyusha guard her love no less
blossoms filled the apple trees and pear trees
mist upon the river floated by
down Katyusha came to gather berries
on the cliff top rising steep and high
