Olympics '80
Soaring high above
Calling out the golden Olympic flame
The Earth will be happy and young!
We must do everything
To keep the Olympic flame burning bright
The sun takes off in the sky, like it’s the first time
Still far from the start, far, far away
But Moscow has awakened
In the middle of the celebration, in the heart of the Earth
Oh, how they stride wide, wide, wide
Through the cheering streets
Queens of swimming, kings of boxing
Today, there’s no escaping sports
There’s no way out from sports
And the stadium roars, like an
Earthquake wave!
The roar of the stadium echoes a hundred times across the distance
The sun in the sky proudly shines like a medal
Soaring high above
Calling out the golden Olympic flame
The Earth will be happy and young!
We must do everything
To keep the Olympic flame burning bright
The sun takes off in the sky, like it’s the first time
This bright day
We’ll remember for a long, long time
The Earth will be happy and young!
Moscow is vast, and above it, above it, above it
Flags are floating in the sky—
Like a colorful flock of clouds
Today, everything will be better and kinder, kinder, kinder
All of humanity will become
In sports, there are rivals, but there are no enemies!
Today, there’s no escaping sports
There’s no getting away from sports
Today, the Earth will feel warmer
And joy will increase!
The roar of the stadium echoes a hundred times across the distance
The sun in the sky proudly shines like a medal
Soaring high above
Calling out the golden Olympic flame
The Earth will be happy and young!
