Gornjatsky Vorkuta

       Gornjatsky Vorkuta.

Vorkuta costs in snow boundless
At severe tundra on the brink;
The north is called here as extreme,
I it sing today a song!
The north is called here as extreme,
I it sing today a song!

       Grey city, white silence;
       Black coal, mines, camp;
       Here the destiny brought up soldiers,
       People here have lived a life knowingly.
       Here the destiny brought up soldiers,
       People here have lived a life knowingly.

Here they, - civil, military
Became tempered furiously as a steel,
Their destinies, of course, variables,
Everyone here treated the grief.
Their destinies, of course, variables,
Everyone here treated the grief.

       In the heart of underground, in black night
       There were miners, extracting a life,
       Nights here become shorter,
       Rate such, try, keep!
       Nights here become shorter,
       Rate such, try, keep!

Vorkuta costs in snow boundless
At severe tundra on the brink;
The north is called here as extreme,
I it sing today a song!
The north is called here as extreme,
I it sing today a song!
