Lyrics

Cover lyrics
Verse I
Ты скажи мне где цветы, где все маки
Их собрали девушки летним днём
Ты скажи мне где цветы, где все маки
Собрали девушки, собрали летним днём

Verse II
Sag mir wo die Männer sind
Wo sind sie geblieben?
Sag mir wo die Männer sind,
Was ist geschehen?
Sag mir wo die Männer sind,
Zogen fort, der Krieg beginnt,
Wann wird man je verstehen?
Wann wird man je verstehen?

Verse III
Where have all the young girls gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the young girls gone?
Long time ago?
Where have all the young girls gone?
Gone to young men every one
Oh, when will WE ever learn?
Oh, when will WE ever learn?

Verse IV
Да, я знаю где цветы, где все маки
На могилах у парней все цветы
Да, я знаю где цветы, где все маки
Горят горят они как вечные огни…

Translations
Russian
Tell me where are the flowers, where are all the poppies
They were picked by girls on a summer's day
Tell me where are the flowers, where are all the poppies
Gathered by girls, gathered on a summer's day

Yes, I know where the flowers are, where all the poppies are
On the boys' graves are all the flowers
Yes, I know where the flowers are, where all the poppies are
They're burning like eternal lights...

German
Tell me where the men are
Where have they gone?
Tell me where the men are
What has happened?
Tell me where the men are
Moved away, the war begins
When will we ever understand?
When will we ever understand?
