Soyuz nerushimy respublik svobodnykh
Splotila naveki velikaya Rus!
Da zdravstvuyet sozdanny voley narodov
Yediny, moguchy Sovetsky Soyuz!

An unbreakable Union of free republics
Great Russia has welded forever;
Created by will of the peoples, long live
The united, mighty Soviet Union!

Slavsya, Otechestvo nashe svobodnoye,
Druzhby narodov nadyozhny oplot,
Znamya sovetskoye, znamya narodnoye
Pust' ot pobedy k pobede vedyot!

Be renowned, our free Fatherland,
Reliable bulwark of the friendship of peoples!
Soviet flag, people's flag,
Let it lead from victory to victory!

Skvoz' grozy siyalo nam solntse svobody,
I Lenin veliky nam put' ozaril.
Nas vyrastil Stalin — na vernost' narodu,
Na trud i na podvigi nas vdokhnovil!

Through tempests shined on us the sun of freedom,
And the great Lenin lit us the way.
Stalin brought us up - on loyalty to the people,
He inspired us to labor and to heroism!

Slavsya, Otechestvo nashe svobodnoye,
Schast'ya narodov nadyozhny oplot,
Znamya sovetskoye, znamya narodnoye
Pust' ot pobedy k pobede vedyot!

Be renowned, our free Fatherland,
Reliable bulwark of the happines of peoples!
Soviet flag, people's flag,
Let it lead from victory to victory!

My armiyu nashu rastili v srazhen'yakh,
Zakhvatchikov podlykh s dorogi smetyom!
My v bitvakh reshayem sud'bu pokoleniy,
My k slave Otchiznu svoyu povedyom!

We developed our army in battles,
We will sweep the vile aggressors from the way!
In battles we settle the fate of generations,
We will lead our Fatherland to glory!

Slavsya Otechestvo nashe svobodnoye,
Slavy narodov nadyozhny oplot,
Znamya sovetskoye, znamya narodnoye
Pust' ot pobedy k pobede vedyot!

Be renowned, our free Fatherland,
Reliable bulwark of the glory of peoples!
Soviet flag, people's flag,
Let it lead from victory to victory!

[Sam_b]

Am I supposed to celebrate millions of workers being killed for rival imperialisms?

[Spawn of Stalin]

Yes, get on your knees and praise Stalin like there's no tomorrow.

Unfortunately RT messed up the flow with commentary but any rate you see things...

This other fellow is uploading from a raw feed but he hasn't gotten the whole thing up. One thing of interest this year in Moscow were the foreign nations participating,

At 3:25 for a minute or so you see the non-CIS or former soviet union republics- Poland, UK, USA, France.

Pathetic. The tempo of the parade has been slower in recent years, most evident in the technical parade. :rolleyes:

Here's a much better anniversary parade from 1985:

It's time to party. :cool:

Or rather, it would be if it wasn't for a sore throat and feeling sick and weak in general. Fuckers.
