Old, valiant ...

Plane boil like a bird

There is an air border.

At the post and day, and at night

Our soldier - Military ...

I serve now on the fleet,

I have a good rumor.

There is the same in infantry -

Be friends with a walkie-talkie!

On the border it is worth

The enemy does not climb to us, trembling.

In the field, il on the shore,

Blocks the path of the enemy.

(Border guards)

Caterpillar two crawls

The tower with the Pushka is taken.

Not a bird, but flies,

Not a truck, but from the cabin,

Not a bat, but with wings.

Sailor you can become

So that the border is guarded

And not to serve on earth,

And on the military ...
