Katyusha
The song tells that at the end of winter, when the fighting resumes, a young girl addresses a prayer to her lover gone to the front, in response to the letters she received from him.
Katyusha climbs on the flowered bank above the breaking rapids and confides to the eagle her prayer, that the one she loves protects the native land and thus saves their love.
Katyusha is an affectionate diminutive of the Russian first name Iekaterina
is a traditional Soviet song. The lyrics were written in 1938 by Mikhaïl Issakovski, the music by Matveï Blanter. The song was performed for the first time by Vera Krassovitskaïa , Gueorgui Vinogradov and Vsevolod Tioutiounnik, with the orchestra conducted by Viktor Knouchevitski on November 28, 1938.
