Explanation:
This is how it is usually rendered in English.

See:

http://revolutionarydemocracy.org/rdv1n1/guard.htm

.....

. Only proletarian internationalism and Soviet socialist patriotism will carry us to victory. "Workers of the World, Unite!" is ever our slogan. "The Socialist Fatherland in Danger!" is the slogan of the day till imperialism and separate nations exist. Proletarian internationalism, friendship and brotherhood with the workers of all the world and with the socialist countries is the basis of our victory. Only in this way can we win!
...............

And a whole lot more blah, blah, blah to read if you want to bore yourself to tears!
