Key words:

English true version of the song:
As the morning mist over the river
Fills the blooming orchards far and wide
And the trees with a morning chill still quiver,
Catherine walks out to the riverside.
She comes singing songs about an eagle
Soaring proudly in the sky above
And the one in the service of his people
Whom young Catherine genuinely loves.
May her songs fly over the valley
Rising high to ring out loud and clear.
May they follow her letters she can't tally
To that soldier on the far frontier.
He will see her standing by the water.
He will hear her songs from up above.
As he keeps vigil to protect our borders,
His sweet Catherine will preserve their love.
As the morning mist over the

RUSSIAN LYRICS:
РАсцветали Яблони и грУши,
ПоплылИ тумАны над рекОй.
ВЫходила на берЕг КатЮша,
Hа высОкий бЕрег, на крутОй.
ВЫходила, пЕсню заводИла
Про степнОго сИзого орлА,
Про тогО, котОрого любИла,
Про тогО, чьи пИсьма береглА.
Ой ты, пЕсня, пЕсенка девИчья,
Ты летИ за Ясным сОлнцем вслед
И бойцУ на дАльнем погранИчье
От КатЮши передАй привЕт.
Пусть он вспОмнит дЕвушку простУю,
Пусть услЫшит, как она поЁт.
Пусть он зЕмлю бережЁт роднУю,
А любОвь КатЮша сбережЁт.
РАсцветали Яблони и грУши,
ПоплылИ тумАны над рекОй.
ВЫходила на берЕг КатЮша,
Hа высОкий бЕрег, на крутОй

6 million people are considered to be unaccounted for (пропАвшие без вестИ - propAfshiye byez vyesteE) after the Great Patriotic War...
This song reflects the anxiety and worries of a loving girl KatyUsha (endearing/affectionate form of Katya) who waits her sweetheart to return.
The name of the song has double meaning: today, the name Katyusha is also associated with the name of the Russian superior missile combat systems.

Public Life
Victory Day is a national holiday in Russia. Public offices, schools and most businesses are closed for the celebrations. There may be changes in public transport routes due to parades and street performances.
Neighborhood schools may host a program prepared by the students, featuring wartime songs and poetry.
At home, families gather around a festive table to honor surviving witnesses of World War II and remember those who passed away. They may also watch a favorite Soviet film based on the events of World War II, which is also known as the Great Patriotic War. These films are repeated each year but the audience seems to never grow tired of them:))
Common symbols of Victory Day (сИмволы Дня ПобЕды - seemvoly Dnya PabyEdy) in Russia are:
St. George ribbon (Георгиевская ленточка - GyeOrgeeyevskaya lyEntachka) – people wear this two - coloured black-and-orange ribbon on their clothes or tie it to car antennas as a sign of respect and remembrance.
Order of the Patriotic War (О́рден Оте́чественной войны́ - Ordyen Atyechestvyennoy vayny) – a military distinction for heroic deeds and bravery of Soviet soldiers.
Red carnations (крАсные гвоздИки - krAsnye gvazdeEkee) – blood red is the color of the Soviet flag under which the veterans had fought. Laying an even number of red carnations at war memorial sites signifies mourning and remembrance.
Background
Victory Day (День Победы - DyEn` PabyEdy) marks Germany’s surrender to the Soviet Union in 1945. It became the end of the Great Patriotic War for the USSR, which lost about 25 million citizens in the four years of fighting. Interestingly, until its 20th anniversary (May 9, 1965), Victory Day was not a major holiday, unlike, for instance, May 1, and was considered a work day. Apart from the anniversaries in 1965 and 1985, Victory Day celebrations in the Soviet Union did not feature a military parade. This tradition started in 1995.
Some snapshots of the main Parade in the Red Square from RT (Russia Today)
I think this is one of the most touching ( I can`t help crying when I listen to it) and popular songs about the Day of Victory.
I want to share this song with you. It will help you to understand the atmosphere of the Day.
Текст песни Лев Лещенко - День Победы
День ПобЕды !
День ПобЕды, как он был от нас далЁк,
Как в кострЕ потУхшем тАял уголЁк.
БЫли вЁрсты, обгорЕлые, в пылИ, -
Этот день мы приближАли как моглИ.
Этот День ПобЕды
ПОрохом пропАх,
Это прАздник
С сединОю на вискАх.
Это рАдость
Со слезАми на глазАх.
День ПобЕды !
День ПобЕды !
День ПобЕды !
Дни и нОчи у мартЕновских печЕй
Не смыкАла нАша РОдина очЕй.
Дни и нОчи бИтву трУдную велИ -
Этот день мы приближАли как моглИ.
