I shall go across the show-clad field,The incredible music is by Sergei Prokofiev, from the legendary film by Sergei Eisenstein, Alexander Nevsky (Russian: Александр Невский).
I shall fly above the field of death.
I shall search for valiant warriors,
my betrothed, my stalwart youths.
Here lies one felled by a wild saber;
there lies one impaled by an arrow.
From their wounds blood fell like rain
on our native soil, on our Russian fields.

War is a bad thing. But people are addicted to it. This might be the "beauty" of war I guess :). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Im3S8PRWjeg
