The success of a simple song about Marusya Klimova, who must forgive her beloved, is inexplicable. The life and death of the famous bandera, who became popular thanks to these couplets, is reminiscent of a Hollywood blockbuster - love and betrayal, ups and downs, resounding success and universal censure...
