English Lyrics
Bright traces of blood on the crags of Jangbaek still gleam,
Still the Amnok carries along signs of blood in its stream.
Still do those hallowed traces shine resplendently
Over Korea ever flourishing and free.
So dear to all our hearts is our General's glorious name,
Our own beloved Kim Il Sung of undying fame.
Tell, blizzards that rage in the wild Manchurian plains,
Tell, you nights in forests deep where the silence reigns,
Who is the partisan whose deeds are unsurpassed?
Who is the patriot whose fame shall ever last?
So dear to all our hearts is our General's glorious name,
Our own beloved Kim Il Sung of undying fame.
He severed the chains of the masses, brought them liberty,
The sun of Korea today, democratic and free.
For the Twenty Points united we stand fast,
Over our fair homeland spring has come at last!
So dear to all our hearts is our General's glorious name,
Our own beloved Kim Il Sung of undying fame.
Korean Lyrics
장백산 줄기줄기 피어린 자욱
압록강 굽이굽이 피어린 자욱
오늘도 자유조선 꽃다발우에
력력히 비쳐주는 거룩한 자욱
(후렴)
아 – 그 이름도 그리운 우리의 장군
아 – 그 이름도 빛나는 김일성장군
만주벌 눈바람아 이야기하라
밀림의 긴긴밤아 이야기하라
만고의 빨찌산이 누구인가를
절세의 애국자가 누구인가를
(후렴)
로동자 대중에겐 해방의 은인
민주의 새 조선엔 위대한 태양
20개 정강우에 모두다 뭉쳐
북조선 방방곡곡 새봄이 온다
(후렴)

"Das Feld ist naß" is a German Landsknechtlieder, singing from the perspective of a Landsknecht, whom is having doubts about an ongoing battle. The battle itself being described as a bloodbath taking even his best friend in what seems like worthless conflict. The song is itself Anti-War in perspective and you could even lean it on being anarchistic in nature if it weren't for the final stanza, referring to a "new leader named Frundsberg" who takes command and orders yet another assault, implying an end to the conflict for our speaker.

"N'ato maja rripa rripa" is an Albanian song referencing the Albanian Resistance Movement that was prevalent in Albania during the years of 1939 through 1945. The Resistance movement was in action opposing Italy's attempts at forcefully integrating the country, in the effort to protect their own historic identity within the Balkans. The movement had cooperated with various other movements, though became predominantly associated with Left Wing resistance movements before eventually falling into the Soviet sphere of influence by 1945. There were talks of including Albania within Yugoslavia at the time, but Albanians did not approve of the plan nor did Stalin agree on giving up far too much power in the Balkans to Tito.

Мире лукавий was a song written by Stefan Yavorsky sometime in the late 17th century. The song was made during the height of the entrenchment of Protestantism in Europe, and its context is that the composer is opposed to the reforms of Luther, though seems to have some similarities to the reformationists. Apologies if there are mistakes, as I've had to use multiple dictionaries as two of them had their servers crash while working on this, making it difficult to confirm the validity of several of the translations.

"Cuba Va!" was a song from the 70s after the revolution in Cuba that marked a nationalist sense for Cuba calling its revolution a "statement to the world" marking its end of being under the dictatorship under President Batista. It's not necessarily a socialist song but rather a nationalist one calling for Cuba's independence from the world.

"Ja na erdhi Viti i Ri" is an Albanian folk song dedicated to Christmas and New Years. There's not many of these due to the conversion and flight of many Albanians following the Turkish conquest in the late 15th century. Despite this, some Christian elements have survived and following the end of Hoxha's Albania came a wave of members of the Albanian community returning to the Christian faith.
Aside from the song details, I wish everyone to have a great Christmas holiday, whether you celebrate in December or January does not matter. What matters is you have a great time, and give thanks for the many things others have done for us so that we may enjoy the moments of our lives that we have. Have a Happy New Year, everyone, and may 2023 be better than 2022!

Being completely honest, this is one of the saddest songs I've had to see the lyrics for. I listened to it many times thinking it was a kind of happy song, but I was significantly wrong on that.

Lyrics:
Shelves are walled,
Beautifully kept operational,
And proudly rustle the banners.
Combat and private,
Common destiny.
We are connected with you, my friend!
To Serve Russia, It's Destined for you and for me.
To serve Russia, An amazing country
Where the sun rises new, the sky is blue.
Shoulder to shoulder, Go Russian troops.
And though the military road is not easy,
We are with faith and righteousness to serve Russia!
The fearless attacks,
We saved the Russian flag,
And our sweet home, and our songs.
And if trouble comes,
We then with himself,
We'll be our motherland's screen, my
friend.
To Serve Russia, It's Destined for you and for me.
To serve Russia, An amazing country
Where the sun rises new, the sky is blue.
Shoulder to shoulder, Go Russian troops.
And though the military road is not easy,
We are with faith and righteousness to serve Russia!
Shelves are walled,
Beautifully kept operational,
And with us all is Russia.
Both he and you and I -
Our Army family
And that we are strong, my friend!
To Serve Russia, It's Destined for you and for me.
To serve Russia, An amazing country
Where the sun rises new, the sky is blue.
Shoulder to shoulder, Go Russian troops.
And though the military road is not easy,
We are with faith and righteousness to serve Russia!
Shoulder to shoulder, Go Russian troops.
And though the military road is not easy,
Faith and righteousness to serve, Russia!
