Katyusha, Katusha, or Katusha (Russian:Катюша) is a Russian folk song composed by Matvei Blanter in 1938 and its lyrics written by Mikhail Isakovski during the great patriotic war or better known as World War II. The song depicts a girl longing for her beloved husband who is on military service.
Katyusha is a tender diminutive from female name, Katherine: Katya is a nickname, and Katyusha, a tender diminutive.
This song is also gave a name for the BM-8, BM-13, and BM-31 Rocket launcher trucks built by the Red Army in the second world war.
Russian:
Расцветали яблони и груши,
Поплыли туманы над рекой.
Выходила на берег Катюша,
На высокий берег на крутой.
Выходила, песню заводила
Про степного, сизого орла,
Про того, которого любила,
Про того, чьи письма берегла.
Ой ты, песня, песенка девичья,
Ты лети за ясным солнцем вслед.
И бойцу на дальнем пограничье
От Катюши передай привет.
Пусть он вспомнит девушку простую,
Пусть услышит, как она поёт,
Пусть он землю бережёт родную,
А любовь Катюша сбережёт.
You can’t read the Russian alphabet? Don’t worry, i have its translation.
Translation:
Rastsvetali yabloni i grushi,
Paplyli tumany nad rekoy.
Vykhodila na bereg Katyusha,
Na vysokii bereg na krutoy.
Vykhodila, pesnyu zavodila
Pro stepnogo, sizogo orla,
Pro Togo, katorogo lyubila,
Pro Togo, ch'i pis'ma beregla.
Oy ty, pyesnya, pyesenka devich'ya,
Ty leti za yasnym solntsem vsled.
I boytsu na dal'nem pogranich'e
Ot Katyushi peredai privyet.
Pust' on vspomnit devushku prostuyu,
Pust' uslyshit, kak ona payot,
Pust' on zemlu berezhyot rodnuyu,
A lyubov' Katyusha sberezhyot.
You can’t understand that? Hmm, I have its translation in English.
English:
Apple and pear trees were blooming.
O'er the river the fog merrily rolled.
On the steep banks walked Katyusha,
On the high bank she slowly strode.
As she walked she sang a sweet song
Of her silver eagle of the steppe,
Of the one she loved she loved so dearly,
And the one whose letters she had kept
O you song! Little song of a young girl,
Fly over the river and in the sunlight go.
And fly to my hero far from me,
From his Katyusha bring him a sweet hello.
Will he remember this plain young girl,
And her sweet song like a dove,
As he stands guarding his proud nation,
So Katyusha will guard their love.
Now, let’s sing the song!

The ensemble consists of a male choir, an orchestra, and a dance ensemble. They usually perform Russian folk songs including Kalinka, Katyusha, The Song of Volga Boatmen, and Moscow Nights. The ensemble is performing since Soviet period, and now the ensemble continue to entertaining audiences inside or outside Russia.
The name of the Alexandrov ensemble was taken from Alexander Vasilyevich Alexandrov (1883-1946), a Russian public figure who composed The National Anthem of The Soviet Union Socialist Republic (Russian: Государственный гимн Союз Советских Социалистических Республик, Gosudarstvenny Gimn Soyuz Sovietskikh Sotsialisticheskikh Respublik). He was the ensemble’s first artistic director, conductor, choirmaster, and teacher.
The Alexandrov ensemble and choir was founded in 1926, its first conductor was Alexander V. Alexandrov. He leaded this ensemble from 1926 until his death in 1946.

Original Lyrics:
When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty, will I be rich
Here’s what she said to me
Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.
When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead
Will we have rainbows, day after day
Here’s what my sweetheart said.
Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be.
Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, what will I be.
Will I be handsome, will I be rich
I tell them tenderly
Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be

V sadu yagoda malinka, malinka moya. So simple, isn’t it? The soloist of the Red Army Choir (Aleksandrov Ensemble) who usually sings this song is Vasily ‘Mr. Kalinka’ Ivanovich Shtefutsa. Vasily Shtefutsa is my favorite soloist in the Aleksandrov Ensemble.

Little raspberry in the garden, my little raspberry!
