White Lily (Okhotnik) Lyrics

Born in the red star, her only passion was to fly
In 41, she was willing to fight and to die
First combat flight and then, Stalingrad - to hold!
Yak31, a born fighter pilot, she was - so bold!

Ju 88 fell in flames out of the sky when she attacked
A dogfight brought her victory over a 109 - he cracked
Her deeds were praised, she was loved, she was the brave
Her enemies were scared when she came with the first wave

Free hunter - an eagle that catches its prey
Free hunter - through clouds and storms you stray!

Escorting mission, already the fourth flight that day
Out of the sun, the fighters dived on their prey
Behind the clouds, Lily was meeting her death
No chute, no explosion, her final breath

Free hunter - an eagle that catches its prey
Free hunter - through clouds and storms you stray!

Free hunter - an eagle that catches its prey
Free hunter - through clouds and storms you stray!

Free hunter - warrior of the open sky
Free hunter - eight to one, time to die

Death ruled the sky
A cold faithful day
White Lily - she died
Above Stalingrad
The dead ruled the sky

A cold faithful day
White Lily - she died
Above Stalingrad
