Верноподданным (To the loyal subjects) - Sergei Bekhtejev's poem HD

Lyrics in English (apologies for any mistakes): Cheer up, do not despair, The Lord will dispel the reign of darkness And again with sensitive and diligent hearing We will hear our Russian hymn! And once again our sovereign Father Will ascend his ancestral throne Autocratic like in the days of old, Once again summoning his Sons to bow And in miserable clothes, naked, The dear Nation will fall in tears To the feet of the great Tzar, Burning with the shame of repentance And the Tzar will say, Kissing his traitorous daughter on the lips, "I have forgiven you everything, Dear, And have come to help you myself" "Do not cry, forget past plots, I will be with You to the end Carrying Your cross, your chains And the sorrow of the crown of thorns" And in miserable clothes, naked, The dear Nation will fall in tears To the feet of the great Tzar, Burning with the shame of repentance And in miserable clothes, naked, The dear Nation will fall in tears To the feet of the great Tzar, Burning with the shame of repentance Cheer up, do not despair, The Lord will dispel the reign of darkness And again with sensitive and diligent hearing We will hear our Russian hymn!
