Karelia - The Deserter lyrics

I'm scared for war, the smell of blood

Agony rattles make me cry

I feel no hate for my enemy

Why should I kill ?

Why should I stay ?

Mother bring me back home

Mother take me far away

The time has come to take my leave

Don't have a grudge against me

Opportune darkness ... I'm waking up and run

Away in the silent night

Running through meadows and hills

Grass unstained and morning dew

I swear I won't

Come back in the world of steel

Finally my dream came true

Listening to the river flows

Light touch of the wind on the leafs

I escaped from the war claws

Now I will never meet the grief

Full of hazards anyway

Whether I leave or I stay

They'll catch me up

I know lot which waits for me

Death is the price but I'm free

For them I'm a coward, evil comrade

Unfit to be 'cause I've done the choice of life

I'm a deserter

[Choirs :]

Fellonia a suoi fratelli, traditore

La scelta di salvarsi, disertore

Vigliacheria vergognosa, infedelta colpevole

For them I'm a coward, evil comrade

Unfit to be 'cause I've done the choice of life

I'm a deserter
