I am a soldier
Click to see the original lyrics (Russian)
I'm a soldier,
I haven't slept in 5 years
and I have eye bags under my eyes.
I haven't seen for myself
but so I was told.
I am a soldier
and I don't have a head,
they took it off with their boots.
Yo-yo-yo, the commander shouts,
commander's mouth is torn open
because of the grenade...
White wool,
red wool does not heal the soldier.
I'm a soldier,
an immature boy of war.
I'm a soldier,
mom, tend to my wounds.
I'm a soldier,
a soldier of a godforsaken country.
I'm a hero,
tell me of which novel.
O, o-o-o
I'm a soldier,
I'm sorry when there is one bullet left,
[it's either] just me or him.
The last wagon,
moonshine,
we're millions
in the UN.
I'm a soldier,
and I know my job,
my job is to shoot
so that the bullet will hit
the enemy's body.
This reggae is for you Mother-War
are you happy now?
I'm a soldier,
an immature boy of war.
I'm a soldier,
mom, tend to my wounds.
I'm a soldier,
a soldier of a godforsaken country.
I'm a hero,
tell me of which novel.
I'm a soldier, I'm a soldier,
I'm a soldier, I'm a soldier,
I'm a sol...dier,... sol...dier,
sol...dier...dier.
I'm a soldier, an immature boy of war.
I'm a soldier, mom, tend to my wounds.
I'm a soldier, a soldier of a godforsaken country.
I'm a hero, tell me of which novel.

Translations of "Солдат (Soldat)"
Comments

He is a hero of a novel, he just doesn't know of which one. I would just leave it. Most probably it's done for the rhyme sake. "I have eye bags under my eyes"- it's nonsense.
Russia is waging a disgraceful war on Ukraine. Stand With Ukraine!

I have eye bags under my eyes . It's make a lot more sence to say simply " and I have bags under my eyes" Also,"Mom, tend to my wounds" Actually , what is written in Russian is" Mother heal my wounds" Or Mum and not Mom.
I hope, I did not offend You
Best wishes
