[Verse 1]
In an open field, in a wide steppe
Cossacks were on their way to defend freedom
And the falcon circled above them
He stoned down and then rose up again
And the falcon circled above them
He stoned down and then rose up again
[Verse 2]
The falcon is intelligent, the falcon is fast
Don't spin around the same spot, don't fly into the light
Take the greetings, falcon, take the greetings
To the villages and stanitsas from their sons
Take the greetings, falcon, take the greetings
To the villages and stanitsas from their sons
[Verse 3]
You should be always ready, falcon, to the fight
We must protect our holy homeland
And for the peace of the people, and for our freedom
Each of us is ready to give a life
We must protect our holy homeland
And for the peace of the people, and for our freedom
[Verse 4]
In an open field, in a wide steppe
Cossacks were on their way to defend freedom
And the falcon circled above them
He stoned down and then rose up again
And the falcon circled above them
He stoned down and then rose up again
