Inscribed on the sign on the station:
Chudovo
Inscribed on the road sign:
Moscow. Leningrad

Near Chudovo, our fierce and stubborn enemy
Attempted to save his last stronghold
“Will we sweep the enemy or not from our path?”
Could there even be a question!
The enemy did not have time to come to his senses
When he found himself derailed!

“For the Fascist scoundrels the clearest
And inevitable path is: into the ditch!”
