The Arctic Circle, TASS No. 1352, 1946

Stencil

On an island, in the land of the deep snows,
Where lush lights illumine the heights,
From all the distant corners of the Arctic
Hardy winterers gather today.

One thought warms their hearts:
Of the motherland, of glory, of their leader.
The day of the election of the Supreme Soviet:
It is for them a holiday like everywhere else.
