Since you finally sent him to Siberia, dedicate a popular song to him.

Dina Vierny Vaninskiy port (Ванинский порт)

KOLYMA (THE PORT OF VALINO)

I remember the port of Valino,
And the sight of the sad boat
as we climbed the gangplank
on board, in the sinister and cold holds.

The fog stretched over the sea
the waves were screaming
on the road to Magadan
Capital of the Kolyma region.

Not a song, but only a lament
rose from every chest
Goodbye forever, continent
The old battered steamer was blowing.

In the pitching, the internees moaned
Huddled together like kin, like brothers
And only, sometimes from their lips
a dull curse escaped.

Oh Kolyma, may you be cursed
You are called a wonderful planet
Here by force we will all go mad
And the return is certainly not there.

Five hundred kilometers of taiga,
men stagger like shadows
Cars do not reach down here
only moose stumble around these parts.

Here death is a friend of scurvy
the clinics are already full
In vain this spring
I await my beloved's reply.

I know that you no longer wait for me
And that you do not read my letters
You will never come to look for me
and if you met me, you would not recognize me.

Goodbye, mother and bride,
and goodbye, my dear children
Know that on this land
I had to drink the bitter cup to the last drop. Canzoni contro la guerra - Я помню тот Ванинский порт
