This is a Soviet song I found from a Soviet cartoon, titled "Onward Toward the Shining Future". I have no way of knowing whom the artist(s) is/are, which have likely long passed on. The song is also a mystery to me, as "Onward Toward the Shining Future" was simply the name of the film.
While I am certainly no fan of whom this song praises, I have taken to using it to suit my world building, modifying the lyrics to fit my needs, as the lyrics are quite uplifting and inspiring.

LYRICS:
Clear as the spring birds, one by one,
Through all our Soviet land, songs get sung!
Through town and country, our voices sound clear,
life's gotten better, life's got more cheer!
Through town and country, our voices sound clear,
life's gotten better, life's got more cheer!
Singing and growing through hardship we march,
new happiness with a song do we do forge!
Through town and country, our voices sound clear,
Life's gotten better, life's got more cheer!
Through town and country, our voices sound clear,
Life's gotten better, life's got more cheer!
All of us wish in this land vast and sheer,
To shout to Stalin: Thank you, dear!
Long life, good health to you, Stalin, my dear!
Life's gotten better, life's got more cheer!
Long life, good health to you, Stalin, my dear!
Life's gotten better, life's got more cheer!
