Art of War (10)

A Martial Song by Nikita Bogoslovsky, Vladimir Agatov, and Mark Bernes

Тёмная ночь (Dark Is the Night)

Lyrics

Russian

Тёмная ночь, только пули свистят по степи Только ветер гудит в проводах, тускло звёзды мерцают В тёмную ночь ты, любимая, знаю, не спишь И у детской кроватки тайком ты слезу утираешь

Как я люблю глубину твоих ласковых глаз Как я хочу к ним прижаться теперь губами Тёмная ночь разделяет, любимая, нас И тревожная чёрная степь пролегла между нами

Верю в тебя, в дорогую подругу мою Эта вера от пули меня тёмной ночью хранила Радостно мне, я спокоен в смертельном бою Знаю, встретишь с любовью меня, что б со мной ни случилось

Смерть не страшна, с ней встречались не раз мы в степи Вот и теперь надо мною она кружится Ты меня ждёшь и у детской кроватки не спишь И поэтому, знаю, со мной ничего не случится

И поэтому, знаю, со мной ничего не случится

English

Dark night, only bullets are whistling in the steppe,

Only the wind is wailing through the telephone wires, stars are faintly flickering ...

In the dark night, my love, I know you are not sleeping,

And, near a child's crib, you secretly wipe away a tear.

How I love the depths of your gentle eyes,

How I long to press my lips to them!

This dark night separates us, my love,

And the dark, troubled steppe has come to lie between us.

I have faith in you, in you, my sweetheart.

That faith has shielded me from bullets in this dark night ...

I am glad, I am calm in deadly battle:

I know you will meet me with love, no matter what happens.

Death is not terrible, we've met with it more than once in the steppe ...

And here it looms over me once again,

You await my return, sitting sleepless near a cradle,

And so I know that nothing will happen to me!

Context

Тёмная ночь (Performed 1943) - Mark Bernes (1911-1969), Nikita Bogoslovsky (1913-2004), and Vladimir Agatov (1919-1949) [Russia]

Originally the solemn song was written by Nikita Bogoslovsky, a composer, and Vladimir Agatov , a poet. Although Mark Bernes was not the first to record and perform the song, he is widely credited with popularizing it and giving the martial song a voice. He performed the song in the movie Two Soldiers, where he played a soldier missing his wife and child.

The song became heavily associated with Eastern front of WWII between the Soviet people and Nazis. Authorities attempted to shun and ostracize the song for it's negative themes, claiming it was Philistine and would dishearten the Soviet people. Philistine was the idea of a person or thing hostile to art and culture from a philosophical stand point, however people who went around claiming others were philistine were more hostile than any money hungry artist.

Waffenruhe was a Martial Industrial / Neo-Classical Ambient project formed by Soldat D. in 2007, dealing with the world wars, the struggle against the modern world and melancholic themes. Waffenruhe found its end on the 6th of September 2017, when Soldat D. committed suicide.

I got a very early lesson in how not-dangerous cities are b/c I was 19 when I moved from The Woods(tm) to The Big City(tm) for the first time and I was also suicidally depressed and I got it into my head that if I spent enough time wandering about in The Bad Part of Town(tm) eventually some manner of Dangerous Criminal(tm) would show up and attempt to do violence to me, which sounded like a decently rock-and-roll way to die when you're 19 years old and have a lot of untreated mental illnesseses.

So what happened was I spent a lot of free time getting drunk and aimlessly wandering around the city, where I had lots of interesting conversations with lots of perfectly nice people, which helped a lot with the suicidal depression it turned out.

Poll: Horror and Other Genres

We all love horror, but combining it with other genres is also great.
