Very depressing song. The old veteran was respected and treated as a hero when he came back (as it should be), everyone on the bus knew who he was. But the Soviet Afghan war veterans came back to a country falling apart with nothing to do. The ending implies that the young veteran committed suicide at some point.
One of the biggest mistakes the Soviet union ever made was going into a shithole like Afghanistan graveyard of empires is what describes places like Afghanistan.
Damn, I thought of the ending as the old man choosing not to sit out of a sort of respect. But now that I think of it it makes more sense that the young man commit suicide.
Repeating the "Обычный Автобус, и все как обычно" makes it really sad. It's nothing out of the ordinary. Everday business. Yet, people scarred by wars are within our society. Sometimes we dont even notice, sometimes they hide it. Especially survivors of WW2 may be jolly old fellas, but if they start talking about the horror they witnessed, you feel almost like throwing up.
I once was able to meet a veteran of the Soviet-Afghan war, and consider it a real privilege to do so. He was probably in his early to mid 40s, and his hair was quite gray. I had read in a book about the Great Patriotic War that premature graying of the hair really does occur to those who experience the stress of war. I’ve been trying to learn Russian for years, know a lot of words, but am not fluent, and was really happy to speak a little bit of it with him. Around this time I had also watched a documentary on a group of American soldiers who were on a long deployment to eastern Afghanistan. Several of them were killed on the deployment, and in interviews with some of them after you could absolutely see the same sort of bitterness and anger as displayed by the veterans in this song. That line “that word, that cursed word - Afghanistan” could fit so many soldiers that fought there over time, being a cursed place for them.
@@MrLittleGoblen Of course. The memory of my meeting with the veteran sticks with me. I knew I had met someone who played a part in a historical event, even if it was only a small one. I was also very happy to be able to speak the limited Russian I know with someone after I had lost contact with my Russian teacher some years before. I would also like to say I'm sorry if I offended anyone by the use of the term "Soviet-Afghan war". That's what I've always heard it called.

Probably a lot of them were not brave at all, they were just sent in this hell of blood and dust against their will and what they had to do was obey or die. I think they also deserve a lot of respect
@@NavySeal818 I mean fighters not terrorists even if they are isis not as much respect as actual soldiers, but I can see where they come from, well I mean taliban I can't really see much about isis
I'm really sorry for being annoying, it's not like I precisely look for mistakes, I just want to make it clearer to English speakers 1:20 "Старик оборзел и пошёл на таран" "The old man grew tired and went to the guy" It is more like "the old man grew helluva insolent and rushed to the guy" It emphasizes how the author despises that behavior of the old man
Honestly, i dont believe a correction is too needed. I knew what it meant when the old man went over to the man, he was pissed! The song is very heart breaking!
I don't think that was the intention. The man was a WW2 veteran, which are/were greatly respected in USSR/Russia. He simply didn't realize the young guy was a vet too. The author wanted to emphasize the difference - everyone on the bus knew the old man was a veteran, but the Soviet Afghan war vets were treated like dirt.
@@nikolakaravida9670 I love how the young veteran talks back with respect to the old one, despite the rude behaviour the old one previously showed toward him. Because the young one understands the old one. And how, even though he is limping, he gives the old one his seat. And how the old man breaks as he realises how wrong he was. So noble and beautiful...
I am glad I found this channel, it's rare to see subtitles on what are beutifull songs whit a very diferent feel from the more formal, cold and nationalistic music's of the west. This feels far more real, they all sound like they could be soldier letter or diaries.
wonderful translation, many translations of songs like this are weird and hard to understand because the uploader uses a translation software instead of actually translating it, but yours makes perfect sense
Thank you! I do use translation software, but I adapt it and rearrange the words (without changing the meaning) because if I used the one straight out of the translator, it sounds extremely awkward.
thank you for posting songs like these, It really gives the younger generation like me a better perspective and respect for the veterans still alive amongst us
I don't know why but as someone who doesn't even speak Russian these words still hit me as people think of Russia as some big bad enemy but they never think about the people who fight to maintain that title and the hell they experience and it makes me think back on the veterans here in the UK who also come back from war (albeit from different circumstances) they still struggle to fit back into society just like the grey-haired boy.
The powers that be want us all to blindly hate each other based on nationality. It's easier to manipulate us Into slaughtering eachother that way. I'm American. Why would I hate a Russian? What has a Russian ever done to me personally? Why would I hate any man regardless of his nationality if he didnt do anything to me.
@@adamniehaus5835 I thought so, too, until the Russians took over my house and my family and I almost became homeless. When the parents went to Russia to work after that, they were almost beaten by the locals on the basis of their ethnicity. I can no longer consider them brothers, because only a few thousand Russians were against the war at my home out of all one hundred and fifty million.
@@ВладиславВладислав-и4ю I'm truly sorry to see what's going g on over there. Make no mistake I'm not excusing Russia's actions in Ukraine. It's wrong and inexcusable.

@@OmnistarEast, I have another suggestion, if you feel like it There is a song called in russian опять тревога maybe it translates as the "alarm, again" Just a suggestion if you want ideas for the next video
@@dpelpal This is not funny, heartless man! My father went through Chechnya, and your grandfather went through the same Vjetanam? If yes, but tell him something like that to his face! Look at his reaction! Or maybe you think with your head, huh? I hope you understand your mistake...
I feel like at 1:16 the translation "he could not get up" may fit better, as then the in russian very common sarcastic "can't you" comment used by the veteran has even more of an impact: The singer tells you that yes, the young man actually is unable to get up, tied down by mental and physical scarrs. This is not to downplay the importance of you digging up and translating these songs, but I feel like as a community we can bit by bit make the song better to understand and interpret if we share our thoughts. On that note I wish all veterans the strength they need.
Honestly I feel the current translation is fine. And the fact that we don't know that he was a cripple until he limped of the bus makes the veterans comments more impactful. If it was revealed that early, the veteran would just have seemed like a dick. The current translation lets us as listeners feel the weight of the veterans comments more accurately, since we figured out the boy was injured at the same time of the veteran.
Thank you for the excellent translation of this song... I'm sure words can't express the emotions that veterans of war must feel. God bless them all...
As the granddaughter of a Vietnam vet who never got respect and saw some horrible stuff, this song hits hard. I feel for veterans of wars that never get respect
I feel like this song could be also applied to American veterans from Afghanistan as well . That cursed place where both countries fought, lost and there youth were sent to be mentally and physically scared for the rest of there lives. Regardless of country, if you’re a veteran from either Russia (1979-1989) or America (2001-2021) you have my sympathy. If you’ve read this far then thanks and have a good day. 🇺🇸🤝🇷🇺
Ага, только мы там помогали населению. Строили, больницы, школы, сады, аэропорт с которого вы позорно убегали убивая мирных людей,которые падали с самолёта. Вы кроме наркотиков, ничего не дали людям. В этом и разница, между нашими войнами в Афганистане. Афганцы уважают наших солдат, потому что они помогали и даже умирали за афганских детей. Так что не стоит сравнивать наш Афганистан с вашим.
@@ЛюкДэверо-ы3кI will compare as both countries youth suffered in both conflicts. I would rather not argue over the good and bad both the Soviet Union and America did in both wars, just that the soldiers who were sent their have the share unity of suffering in combat, loosing friends, etc. Have a good rest of your day👍.
My Yard is one of those groups that can make you happy, cry, laugh, nostalgic, and depressed all in one song they really are some of the best to convey the depression and uncertainty that followed after the Afghan war and the soon fall of the union. Спасибо братан!
В России нет анти-польской политики. Есть анти-американская и анти-западная политика в целом. Не смотря на тотальную руссофобию в Польше ,Путин никогда не оскорблял польских политиков и тем более польский народ . В Польше нет русских проживающих веками на своей земле , которым запрещено говорить по русски , как это есть в прибалтийских странах. Те русские , которые приехали в Польшу жить , должны не забывать что они русские , но учить польский язык и уважать польские традиции и вливаться в польское общество . Война может быть начата только со стороны польских властей , которые являются марионетками США . поэтому я считаю что это может быть спровоцировано со стороны США.
In America, WW2 veterans mocked and insulted Vietnam veterans for losing and not fighting "in a real war". It seems that it's the same for veterans of the Great Patriotic War.
This is not true about the Great Patriotic War. Veterans are actively insulted in Ukraine because they sympathize with nationalists like Bandera who fought against the Russians

I think the thing is that the man and the boy probably have had similar experiences. Not in what they went through, per se. but assuming the older man fought in WW2, and the boy fought in Afghanistan, they both feared their lives. They fought enemies that would execute them if they ever got caught. They lost some of their best friends in those wars. The only difference is that the old man “won” his war, and the young boy “lost” his. Society didn’t want to discuss the failures of the Afghan war, but loved to discuss the heroes of WW2. I think both parties share the same trauma, it’s just that one doesn’t feel ashamed and downtrodden.

This sound feels like both of the guys went to war, and have been killed in there. And their ghosts returned to their normal lifes before war. Would like to hear what it sound to you guys. First i would say that both have gone to war and returned alive, the young guy probably had nothing left and was "fightin" for his life on the streets so he had been in throuble; but the gray hair of the guy and "in the back of the bus, no one sits there" kinda give that feeling.
There is no hidden meaning behind this. It really was happening in USSR when young guys wear medals and WWII veterans was laughing and mistreat veterans of afghanistan because they don't believe that guys been in Afghanistan.
@@davi9819 In this case.. it seems more like the veteran held the medals, and the young one wanted to pretend it never happened. When the veteran realized just what pain the boy had been through, his heart ached for what he had added on to the kid's plate. That he hadn't been kinder, or seen it in the demeanor. A song like this makes me feel both for the old man, and the young one. The old man, for realizing humility after an outburst, and the young one for choosing to be the better man and just walk away.

@@Verntallat7 I think is the phantom of the son, ¿Why?, well, in some part says "Me too father, i fought for you too" so, i think maybe is the phantom of the son, and when the veteran starts crying it's because he founds himself guilty for the dead of his son.
@@TanqueMkIII Interesting. I assumed he either committed suicide or isolated himself out of lacking appreciation for him as a veteran of a 'lost war'. Unable to fit into society anymore...
The way I interpret the lyrics is the following: The empty seat at the end symbolises the millions of young people the country lost in and since the world war. The old man and the young guy are the survivors, but they could have died very easily just as millions of their comrades. So in a sense, whenever there is an empty seat on the bus, there could have been siting someone who died in war, old or young if they hadn't been sent into war.

Very depressing song. The old veteran was respected and treated as a hero when he came back (as it should be), everyone on the bus knew who he was. But the Soviet Afghan war veterans came back to a country falling apart with nothing to do. The ending implies that the young veteran committed suicide at some point.
One of the biggest mistakes the Soviet union ever made was going into a shithole like Afghanistan graveyard of empires is what describes places like Afghanistan.

Absolute respect for all the veterans.
I once was able to meet a veteran of the Soviet-Afghan war, and consider it a real privilege to do so. He was probably in his early to mid 40s, and his hair was quite gray. I had read in a book about the Great Patriotic War that premature graying of the hair really does occur to those who experience the stress of war. I’ve been trying to learn Russian for years, know a lot of words, but am not fluent, and was really happy to speak a little bit of it with him. Around this time I had also watched a documentary on a group of American soldiers who were on a long deployment to eastern Afghanistan. Several of them were killed on the deployment, and in interviews with some of them after you could absolutely see the same sort of bitterness and anger as displayed by the veterans in this song. That line “that word, that cursed word - Afghanistan” could fit so many soldiers that fought there over time, being a cursed place for them.

С ним все хорошо, но раз в две недели выпьет, может начнет что-то рассказывать про Афган, и вспоминая что то тяжёлое, плачет, так и не дорассказав. не получается сдержаться у мужика, столько всего пережить, столько друзей за 10 лет потерять.

Удачи твоему отцу, мало кто проходит через такое...

man no matter what of what country u come from i will give respect to the soldier. they are one of the bravest human beings in this whole world.
Probably a lot of them were not brave at all, they were just sent in this hell of blood and dust against their will and what they had to do was obey or die. I think they also deserve a lot of respect
@@ScimmiaZombie I mean still brave for fighting and not running away
Not ISIS tho or those kinds. Only a few Chechens I can give that respect to.

"Старик оборзел и пошёл на таран"
"The old man grew tired and went to the guy"
It is more like "the old man grew helluva insolent and rushed to the guy"
It emphasizes how the author despises that behavior of the old man
Thank you! Sometimes, the translator is like that and doesnt convey the lyrics, so it's good when it's corrected
Honestly, i dont believe a correction is too needed. I knew what it meant when the old man went over to the man, he was pissed! The song is very heart breaking!
I don't think that was the intention. The man was a WW2 veteran, which are/were greatly respected in USSR/Russia. He simply didn't realize the young guy was a vet too. The author wanted to emphasize the difference - everyone on the bus knew the old man was a veteran, but the Soviet Afghan war vets were treated like dirt.
@@nikolakaravida9670 I love how the young veteran talks back with respect to the old one, despite the rude behaviour the old one previously showed toward him. Because the young one understands the old one. And how, even though he is limping, he gives the old one his seat. And how the old man breaks as he realises how wrong he was. So noble and beautiful...
I am glad I found this channel, it's rare to see subtitles on what are beutifull songs whit a very diferent feel from the more formal, cold and nationalistic music's of the west. This feels far more real, they all sound like they could be soldier letter or diaries.
This one grew on me. What a beautiful, but equally sad song. Thank you for introducing us these unknown gems!
wonderful translation, many translations of songs like this are weird and hard to understand because the uploader uses a translation software instead of actually translating it, but yours makes perfect sense
Thank you! I do use translation software, but I adapt it and rearrange the words (without changing the meaning) because if I used the one straight out of the translator, it sounds extremely awkward.
thank you for posting songs like these, It really gives the younger generation like me a better perspective and respect for the veterans still alive amongst us

Amazing song, thank you for introducing me to it!
Thanks for listening, glad you liked it!
I don't know why but as someone who doesn't even speak Russian these words still hit me as people think of Russia as some big bad enemy but they never think about the people who fight to maintain that title and the hell they experience and it makes me think back on the veterans here in the UK who also come back from war (albeit from different circumstances) they still struggle to fit back into society just like the grey-haired boy.
The powers that be want us all to blindly hate each other based on nationality. It's easier to manipulate us Into slaughtering eachother that way. I'm American. Why would I hate a Russian? What has a Russian ever done to me personally? Why would I hate any man regardless of his nationality if he didnt do anything to me.
@@adamniehaus5835 I thought so, too, until the Russians took over my house and my family and I almost became homeless. When the parents went to Russia to work after that, they were almost beaten by the locals on the basis of their ethnicity. I can no longer consider them brothers, because only a few thousand Russians were against the war at my home out of all one hundred and fifty million.

Jesus... This song broke my heart.
I feel like at 1:16 the translation "he could not get up" may fit better, as then the in russian very common sarcastic "can't you" comment used by the veteran has even more of an impact: The singer tells you that yes, the young man actually is unable to get up, tied down by mental and physical scarrs. This is not to downplay the importance of you digging up and translating these songs, but I feel like as a community we can bit by bit make the song better to understand and interpret if we share our thoughts. On that note I wish all veterans the strength they need.
Honestly I feel the current translation is fine. And the fact that we don't know that he was a cripple until he limped of the bus makes the veterans comments more impactful. If it was revealed that early, the veteran would just have seemed like a dick. The current translation lets us as listeners feel the weight of the veterans comments more accurately, since we figured out the boy was injured at the same time of the veteran.

Ага, только мы там помогали населению. Строили, больницы, школы, сады, аэропорт с которого вы позорно убегали убивая мирных людей,которые падали с самолёта. Вы кроме наркотиков, ничего не дали людям. В этом и разница, между нашими войнами в Афганистане. Афганцы уважают наших солдат, потому что они помогали и даже умирали за афганских детей. Так что не стоит сравнивать наш Афганистан с вашим.
@@ЛюкДэверо-ы3кI will compare as both countries youth suffered in both conflicts.

Привет! Надеюсь никто и не будет сражаться.
В России нет анти-польской политики. Есть анти-американская и анти-западная политика в целом. Не смотря на тотальную руссофобию в Польше ,Путин никогда не оскорблял польских политиков и тем более польский народ . В Польше нет русских проживающих веками на своей земле , которым запрещено говорить по русски , как это есть в прибалтийских странах. Те русские , которые приехали в Польшу жить , должны не забывать что они русские , но учить польский язык и уважать польские традиции и вливаться в польское общество . Война может быть начата только со стороны польских властей , которые являются марионетками США . поэтому я считаю что это может быть спровоцировано со стороны США.
Вы ЛУЧШИЕ!
excellent pacing and storytelling. common story since it was a common occurrence.

In America, WW2 veterans mocked and insulted Vietnam veterans for losing and not fighting "in a real war". It seems that it's the same for veterans of the Great Patriotic War.
This is not true about the Great Patriotic War. Veterans are actively insulted in Ukraine because they sympathize with nationalists like Bandera who fought against the Russians

I almost cry sawing the lyrics
Это не железный человек - это война и боль...
Wish I knew Russian
I think the thing is that the man and the boy probably have had similar experiences.
Not in what they went through, per se. but assuming the older man fought in WW2, and the boy fought in Afghanistan, they both feared their lives. They fought enemies that would execute them if they ever got caught. They lost some of their best friends in those wars.
The only difference is that the old man “won” his war, and the young boy “lost” his. Society didn’t want to discuss the failures of the Afghan war, but loved to discuss the heroes of WW2.
I think both parties share the same trauma, it’s just that one doesn’t feel ashamed and downtrodden.
"The only difference is that the old man “won” his war, and the young boy “lost” his." Absolutely right

This sound feels like both of the guys went to war, and have been killed in there. And their ghosts returned to their normal lifes before war.
Would like to hear what it sound to you guys.
First i would say that both have gone to war and returned alive, the young guy probably had nothing left and was "fightin" for his life on the streets so he had been in throuble; but the gray hair of the guy and "in the back of the bus, no one sits there" kinda give that feeling.
There is no hidden meaning behind this. It really was happening in USSR when young guys wear medals and WWII veterans was laughing and mistreat veterans of afghanistan because they don't believe that guys been in Afghanistan.
@@davi9819 In this case.. it seems more like the veteran held the medals, and the young one wanted to pretend it never happened. When the veteran realized just what pain the boy had been through, his heart ached for what he had added on to the kid's plate. That he hadn't been kinder, or seen it in the demeanor.
A song like this makes me feel both for the old man, and the young one. The old man, for realizing humility after an outburst, and the young one for choosing to be the better man and just walk away.

@@Verntallat7 I think is the phantom of the son, ¿Why?, well, in some part says "Me too father, i fought for you too" so, i think maybe is the phantom of the son, and when the veteran starts crying it's because he founds himself guilty for the dead of his son.
@@TanqueMkIII Interesting. I assumed he either committed suicide or isolated himself out of lacking appreciation for him as a veteran of a 'lost war'. Unable to fit into society anymore...
The way I interpret the lyrics is the following: The empty seat at the end symbolises the millions of young people the country lost in and since the world war. The old man and the young guy are the survivors, but they could have died very easily just as millions of their comrades. So in a sense, whenever there is an empty seat on the bus, there could have been siting someone who died in war, old or young if they hadn't been sent into war.
I tried to romanize the lyrics, hope it's okay.

I s dyevooshkoy ryadom, na zadnyem sidyenʲye
S tyekh por ooʐ nikto, nikto nye sidit.
Поправлю автора, правильно не сЕдит, а сИдит 3:33 . А видео очень понравилось, продолжай дальше!
In french/en français :
Un bus ordinaire,
Tout se passe normalement
Certaines personnes discutent,
Et d'autres sont justes assises
Et à côté d'une fille
Dans les places du fond
Un enfant ordinaire,
un enfant assis.
Il était habillé simplement :
Jean et T-shirt,
Mais ça se voit qu'il a connu
Des difficultés.
Il avait l'air d'avoir 26 ans,
Il n'avait pas vécu longtemps,
Mais ses cheveux étaient déjà
Complètement gris.
Le bus s’arrêtât
Et d'un lourd roulement,
Un vieil homme entra dans le bus -
Un vétéran.
Il vit que le gars
Ne donna pas sa place,
Le vieil homme s'offusqua,
alla voir le gars.
"Qu'est-ce que t'as, bâtard ?
Tu peux pas te lever ?
Je me suis battu pour vous,
J'ai servi 5 ans.
Je m'suis battu pour vous
M'suis jeté sous les balles
Je m'suis battu pour vous,
J'ai presque donné ma vie !"
Tout le monde se retourna et vit,
le gars qui se leva doucement.
Et il dit calmement en fixant le vétéran :
"Moi aussi, Papa, je me suis battu pour toi."
Dans ses yeux,
La rupture se refléta,
Les atrocités des moudjahidines,
Les voitures des caravanes.
Ce mot horrible,
Ce mot horrible,
Ce mot maudit,
"Afghanistan".
Et le gars boita,
Traversa le bus,
Et je ne l'ai plus
jamais revu.
Et le vieux vétéran
s'enfonça dans son siège
empoigna son cœur
et se mit à pleurer.
Un bus ordinaire,
Tout se passe normalement
Certaines personnes discutent,
Et d'autres sont justes assises.
Et à côté de la fille,
dans les places du fond
La place est libre
Personne ne s'assoit là.
C'est plutôt connard et pas batard et il a pas juste servi mais a combattu pour lui 5 ans
A par ça la traduction est bonne
me and my country have suffered from russian oppresion but these song that you publish are universal on suffering of humans and what war does to a man so for that i respect every russian or any other soldier who has suffered pain of war

Переход был довольно хорошим.
The transition was pretty good.
Okay who disliked
The other side I guess
The western bus
Does anyone have a link to Berets by My Yard? I can only find it on spotify and google doesn't have a lot on it either.
Видал я таких ветеранов
Слишком много чести
Here we go again...
Today they don't fight for Russia just for Putin stupid legacy
@@Parkour282 better than western NATO, EU regime.
@@bosniandrift nobody says that west and USA are angels but lot of people move to west for better life nobody to east why is that ? If i have family I would rather life in west for better future and that's fact
@@Parkour282 The standard of living is much higher in the west, that I agree, but I question the ways they got to those riches.
@@bosniandrift look USA is evil in shadows but that's it people can still have decent life and more freedom than in East but Putin is just sending 18 yo kid die for nothing
Thank you for re upload was looking for this jewel
Good song.
Pozholovat' iz Polshy
Даром не нужна. Простой польский народ жаль.
The empty seat isn't about that the old man can just sit there at the start but for someone is dead and thatw why is empty
The Regular Bus
Everything's Going Normally
Some People are Arguing
And Others Just Sit
And Next to a girl
In the rear seats------
An Ordinary Kid
The Boy just sat
He was dressed normally
Jeans and a T-Shirt
But its clear he had met with trouble
He looked 26 hadn't lived long
But he was already completely grey-haired
The bus came to a stop
and with a heavy tread
An old man comes on the bus, a veteran
He saw that the guy did not give his seat
the old man grew tired
and went to the guy
what are you bastard
why can't you get up?
I fought for you, served five years.
I fought for you---- through myself under bullets
I fought for you and almost gave my life
and everyone turned to look
everyone saw
the guy slowly get up
he spoke softly
and locked eyes with the veteran---me too father, I fought for you too
in his eyes------ruptures reflected
mujahedeen atrocities
cars of the caravans
that horrible word
that horrible word-----that cursed word afghanistan
and the guy limped
went across the cabin
and I never saw him after
and the old veteran sunk in his chair----He clutched his heart
and started to cry
The Regular Bus
Everything's Going Normally
Some People are Arguing
And Others Just Sit
And Next to a girl
In the rear seats------
The Seat is Empty
No one sits there....
(Uploading lyrics because I couldn't get the lyric sheet off the web, I know the video comes with lyrics but a lyric sheet helps better when working with music.)
Is he the grey haired boy that tries to join the war in Chechnya? I wonder about that. It would make a lot of sense
its more probable the guy commited suiсidё, since the song says ¨i never saw him after¨

I’m listening to this On the bus rn
