One more song from LIFE & FATE

[Robert Chandler]

Dear all,

Does anyone know anything about this song?  It does not seem to be as well known as most of the other songs in L & F.

Девочки пели вполголоса грустную песенку:

...А однажды осеннею ноченькой
Командир приласкал ее сам.
До утра называл ее доченькой
И с тех пор уж пошла по рукам...
 
Under a fine autumn moon, 
the commander took her to bed, 
he kissed her till it was dawn 
and now she belongs to the men  (book 2, ch 16, p. 397)

All the best,

Robert
