The songs mostly rhyme, but when that wasn't possible (because it would have meant changing the words too much from the original meanings), it was attempted to at least keep the amount of syllables per line the same, or close.

"Tachanka" & "There, Far Beyond the River" are based mostly on translations by FBJ, with edits for accuracy & some different verses in this film compared to the more commonly-known versions of the songs.

"Echelon Song" was based on bits of various translations found online (on YouTube and other places), including by Hermos Flutter, LHaritonov, Vladimir4757, Ivan Oid, Paul Smith.

"The Red Army is the Strongest" partly uses the translation by Ahmed il Lavavetri from antiwarsongs.org
