Парень из Африки
Кар-Мэн Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A, boy from Africa,
В российскую деревню, где было три двора.
A, boy from Africa.
Он был чернее ночи, но парень хоть куда,
A, boy from Africa,
И каждая хозяйка его к себе звала.
Ни слова он, ни слова он,
Не понимал, не понимал,
Но каждый день с утра он распевал:
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга,
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга!
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга,
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга!
Давно уж поседела у парня голова,
A, boy from Africa,
Приехал он в деревню, как много лет назад.
A, boy from Africa.
Кокосы и бананы, и буйволов стада,
A, boy from Africa,
Деревня из бамбука, 133 двора,
A, boy from Africa.
И каждый двор, и каждый двор,
Был встрече рад, был встрече рад,
И пели песню сотни негритят:
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга,
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга!
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга,
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга!
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга,
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга!
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга,
Азы гум гарум герум, газы гумга!
The lyrics of Кар-Мэн's song "Парень из африки" tell the story of a boy from Africa who travels to a small Russian village where he becomes a beloved member of the community despite not speaking the language. Despite being very dark-skinned, he is welcomed by the village's inhabitants, who invite him into their homes and embrace him as one of their own. Although he cannot communicate with them through language, he expresses himself through a song that he sings every day, which consists of a series of gibberish syllables that bring joy to those around him.
As the years go by, the boy becomes an integral part of the village and the people's lives, and they come to cherish him as an important member of their community. Even as he grows old and his hair turns white, he is still remembered fondly by the villagers, who continue to sing his song in his honor.
The lyrics of this song are a celebration of the capacity for human connection and cross-cultural understanding, despite language and cultural barriers. It's a touching and heartwarming story of empathy and acceptance that reminds us of the power of music to bring people together and transcend language and cultural differences.
