Old Russian marsh (World War I), one of the greatest russian marches. Link above is the best best performance of this march I have found on YouTube.

Predatorren

,indeed.........

The tanks were rattling like a thunder...

Our motor lies engulfed in fire
And flames are licking at the seams
I answer fate's unvoiced desire
A handshake 'gainst its heartless whims
Don't hope for mercy, foe is near
The blaze won't spare a single soul
Our turret, by explosion sheared,
Will land some distance from the hull

They'll lift us from beneath the wreckage
Remove our bodies from the fray
While fire and thunder from the cannons
Escort us on our final way
And telegrams will set a-flying
To notify our next of kin
Your son will never be returning
On leave he won't be stopping in

Eh, roads,
It is dust and a fog,
It is cold weather, alarms
And steppe wild grass.
You can not know
Your fate,
May be, you will die
In this steppe.
Dust is eddying under boots
We are going through steppe,
We are going through fields,
And a fire is roaring around,
And many bullets are whining.

Farewell of a Slavic Woman

Famous Russian military march (1912). Agapkin composed his march "A Slavic Farewell - Farewell to the Slavic Woman"  in 1912, and it has been used to say farewell to Russian troops going to front ever since. He was conducting the famous November parade in Moscow in 1941 when German army were right next to Moscow.

The song was composed in 1912, as Russia was awash in rumors about the impending new Balkan War, in which the Slavs would be pitted against the Ottoman Turks, and Orthodox Christianity aganst Islam. Although, this particular war did not materialize, the song spread like wildfire, and became the most popular military march during WWI as well as WWII

Although it has its author, V. Lazarev, the text of the march that has become part of the urban folklore exists in several version. One of them, by A. Mingalev, is full of patriotic and martial spirit that is rather out of keeping with the elegiac and, perhaps, more authentic tone of the original. A more recent version was produced by Aleksandr Galich (1941 and 1970)..

Your, nobility, lady Separation,
We have been friends for a long time,
That there, is a thing,
A letter in the envelope,
Wait a little, do not tear it
Do not bring me to death,
Bring me to love (Repeat last two lines)

Your nobility, lady foreign land
Hot is your embrace,
Only you did not love
In tender connections, stop, do not call,
Do not lead me to death
Bring me to love (repeat last two lines)

Your nobility, lady Luck (title of the song)
For whom you are kind,
For whom you are otherwise,
9 grams to the heart
Stop, do not call,
Lead me not to death,
bring me to love (repeat last two lines)

Your nobility, lady victory,
It means, my song,
has not been sung to the end,
Stop, Devils,
They take an oath on blood,
Bring me not to death
bring me to love (repeat last two lines)
