Desert - Lament For Soldier's Glory (Order 227) (Lyrics English & Deutsch)

[@OlegAryutkin]

Oleg from Desert here. I was told about this vid and how good it was, but man, it's much better than I thought it'd be! I watched it and it made me so glad and thankful that the author of this vid understood the song and lyrics so well, and makes the song reach to you so much better. Thanx man, really grateful for this vid!! Keep it up!!! Stay metal, Oleg.

[@dinlis3429]

Here is the original text of the order 227 (not full). Thoroughly recommended for better understanding of the situation: "Moscow, 28 July 1942. The enemy feeds more and more resources to the front, and, paying no attention to losses, moves on, penetrates deeper into the Soviet Union, captures new areas, devastates and plunders our cities and villages, rapes, kills and robs the Soviet people..The German invaders are driving towards Stalingrad, towards Volga, and want to capture Kuban and the North Caucasus with their oil and bread riches at any price... Some unwise people at the front comfort themselves with arguments that we can continue the retreat to the east, as we have vast territories, a lot of soil, many people, and that we will always have abundance of bread... Every commander, every soldier and political officer have to realise that our resources are not infinite. The territory of the Soviet Union is not a wilderness, but people - workers, peasants, intelligentsia, our fathers and mothers, wives, brothers, children. ...enemy is longing to capture...bread and other resources for the army and the civilians, iron and fuel for the industries, factories and plants that supply the military with hardware and ammo; this is also railroads. With loss of Ukraine, Belorussia, the Baltics, Donetsk basin and other areas we have lost vast territories, that means that we have lost many people, bread, metals, factories, and plants...Continuation of retreat means to destroy us and also our Motherland...if we do not stop retreating, we will be left without bread, fuel, metals, raw materials, factories and plants, without railways. The conclusion is that it is time to stop the retreat. Not a single step back! This should be our slogan from now. Our Motherland is going through hard times. We have to stop, and then throw back and destroy the enemy, whatever it might cost us... We lack order and discipline in companies, regiments and divisions, in tank units, in the Air Force squadrons. This is our major drawback. We have to introduce the strictest order and strong discipline in our army, if we want to save the situation and defend our Motherland. We can no longer tolerate commanders, commissars, and political officers, whose units leave their defenses at will. We can no longer tolerate the fact that the commanders, commissars and political officers allow several cowards to run the show at the battlefield, that the panic-mongers carry away other soldiers in their retreat and open the way to the enemy. Panic-mongers and cowards are to be exterminated at the site."

[@brotherjudas7709]

Fair. This order was necessary. The idea of it being bad comes from the West, US more precisely, who never had a foreign troops on their land, let alone a vast army that vages a war of extermination.

[@goldenhedgehog9]

Brother Judas the US actually was invaded during WWII. Japan took control of 2 Alaskan islands, captured around 90 US civilians, which they sent to Japan. A force of US and Canadian soldiers were sent to push them off, and took the first island in days, and when they arrived on the second they found it abandoned. The invasion was supposed to be a distraction to draw away US naval forces from around Midway, but the US had already broken the Japanese codes and found out and therefor only sent a couple ships. People need to acknowledge this invasion and stop saying the US was never invaded in WWII. Canada and the US deemed the small invasion serious enough to work together to push Japan out of North America, as if they managed to get a small foothold in NA, they risked them pushing to the mainland, and opening up a front on home soil.

[@deathkorpsofkreig475]

goldenhedgehog9 If I remember correctly over a 100 soldiers were either killed or injury Ed taking that second island due to stupidity,( not being mean but they didn't work together and the G.I were like unattended children) But I do agree America was never invaded on it's main land, alot of countries will do anything to prevent the enemy from getting close to their cities. Due to to Europe wartorn past the people of Europe have a deep routed haterid of occupation. ( Before a American jumps in and starts talking and the bristh occupation of America just remember that I am Irish. We had to deal with the English alot more than you, every good damn century they come over to mess us up in some way)

[@goldenhedgehog9]

Joe Maynes From everything I’ve read, the second Island was abandoned almost immediately after the first was taken back. And I’ll give it to you that casualties were higher than they should have been, but most of the US force was made up of locals who were pretty much just given minimal training and a gun. Canada actually sent a fully trained military unit to fight, but since it was US soil that was invaded, they deferred to the US forces on what to do.

„A word of command has made these silent figures our enemies; a word of command might transform them into our friends.“ „We were eighteen and had begun to love life and the world; and we had to shoot it to pieces.“ „Anything you can settle with money is cheap.“ "I thought of your hand-grenades, of your bayonet, of your rifle; now I see your wife and your face and our fellowship. Forgive me, comrade. We always see it too late. Why do they never tell us that you are poor devils like us, that your mothers are just as anxious as ours, and that we have the same fear of death, and the same dying and the same agony - Forgive me, comrade; how could you be my enemy?

Those who fought and survived World War II may have survived the flames of war, but the ashes of the memories of what they saw and did would haunt and change them forever. My great grandfather actually said that he was a US soldier in one of the airborne divisions, he would actually speak of some of the things he saw and those who he saw dying around him, one of which was his little brother. He said no one that fought in the war regardless of which side they were on left the battlefield without being changed.

[@rc01140]

***** But the song isn't about WWI, it's about WWII. Stalin issued order 227 as a response to what appeared to be the soviet field leaders' notion that retreat was acceptable because the soviet union would always have more land.

The Penal battalions were rated as "expendables" for short terminology, to the point that the intent of the battles was to kill this particular type of unit- these states were monsters, completely and utterly.

Not quite true... at least not for the soviet battalions. They knew the value of manpower and did not wish to waste it. Stalin himself declared they should not be used in suicide attacks. This was an insult to the common soldier. The nazi battalions were way worse.

Ann, нам повезло, я автор этой песни и знаю русский :) во-первых спасибо, я рад что тебе понравилось! Песня о простом Русском солдате в второйй мировой войне, о том как дешева была его жизнь. В песне говорится о приказе 227 ("ни шагу назад") о создании заград-отрядов НКВД. Я понимаю что история сложная штука, и спорить о ней непросто. Песня о том, что 30 миллионов русских погибло, и каждый был человек, с душой, сердцем, и будущим. Не о том кто виноват, а о том, какая страшная вещь война.

I love this song, but I think Joakim is poorly suited for it. This is a very ethereal-sounding song, especially with Desert's lead singer. It's a song meant for someone whose voice trails off softly whereas Joakim is much harsher and hard hitting, it ends abruptly and just feels stunted here. I'd like to hear a variation of this song that's unchanged with someone with a deeper but smoother voice than Joakim on the other end of the duet. (PS: I love Joakim, this just doesn't suit him)

[@TheOverloadxRsps]

During The beginning of the war from 1941 till 1943/44 The soviets had much less troops as the germans did that was the Reason for order 227 because there was no more room to just offer thousands of square kilometers without fighting or order by Highcommand because they feared to lose all the population of the area that would have been conquered by the Wehrmacht and they feared the loss of industry.
