Мельница\Хелависа Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
За тобою ветер мою песню нес.
Я ждала-ждала, проглядела очи я,
Но покрылся льдом да широкий плес.
Но пришла зима, холодны небеса,
Под покровом вьюг пролетает век.
На плече моем побелела коса
Только белый снег - стал весь белый свет,
Не разлиться льду да живой водой.
Говорил мне друг, говорил сосед:
"Аль забыл тебя ясный сокол твой?"
Догорает лучина, сгорит дотла,
Лишь метель прядет мое веретено,
И сама уже, словно снег, бела,
Но я буду ждать тебя все равно.
И сама уже, словно смерть, бела,
Но я буду ждать тебя все равно.
The lyrics of the song "Зима" by Мельница\Хелависа tell a story of longing and unrequited love. The first verse describes a boat drifting far away on a river, carrying the singer's song on the wind towards the person they are addressing. The singer waits and waits, but their eyes grow tired and their sight is obscured by ice on a wide expanse of water.
The chorus reveals that winter has arrived, bringing cold and the cover of snow. Time passes as the singer's hair turns white, yet their love cannot melt the snow. The second verse speaks of the beauty of the white snow, its purity resembling a bright light that cannot be extinguished by ice or frozen water. The singer recalls conversations with a friend and neighbor who inquire if the person they love, symbolized as a falcon, has forgotten them.
The bridge evokes imagery of a dying ember and a spinning wheel engulfed by a blizzard. Despite becoming like the snow themselves, the singer expresses their unwavering commitment to waiting, comparing themselves to death itself. The song concludes with the same sentiment, emphasizing the singer's determination to continue waiting for the person they love, even if they themselves become as white as death.
Overall, "Зима" captures the melancholic feelings of longing, isolation, and determination in the face of unrequited love during the winter season.

Далеко по реке уходила ладья,
A boat sailed far along the river,
За тобою ветер мою песню нес.
The wind carried my song after you.
Я ждала-ждала, проглядела очи я,
I waited and waited, my eyes grew tired,
Но покрылся льдом да широкий плес.
But the wide expanse covered in ice.
Но пришла зима, холодны небеса,
But winter came, the heavens cold,
Под покровом вьюг пролетает век.
Under the cover of blizzards, eternity flies by.
На плече моем побелела коса
My hair whitened on my shoulder
И любовь моя не растопит снег.
And my love won't melt the snow.
Только белый снег - стал весь белый свет,
Only white snow - the world all white,
Не разлиться льду да живой водой.
Won't turn into living water on the ice.
Говорил мне друг, говорил сосед:
My friend said, my neighbor said:
Аль забыл тебя ясный сокол твой?
Have you forgotten your bright falcon?
Догорает лучина, сгорит дотла,
The ember is dying, burning out completely,
Лишь метель прядет мое веретено,
Only the blizzard spins my spinning wheel,
И сама уже, словно снег, бела,
And I myself, like snow, am white already,
Но я буду ждать тебя все равно.
But I will still wait for you.
И сама уже, словно смерть, бела,
And I myself, like death, am white already,
Но я буду ждать тебя все равно.
But I will still wait for you.

I had translated this ... :)
The lodia(the ancient russian ship) was gone far away along river
The wind was carrying my song after you.
I waited-waited, I had overlooked(i don't know.."look so much time") my eyes,
But wide reach was overspreaded by ice..
But winter come, and sky is cold,
Age is flying over under cloack of snowstorms
Braid on my shoulder had whitened
And my love won't able to thaw snow.
Only white snow - had become all white world
Ice won't able to overflow into alive water.
The friend was told me, the neighbor was told me :
"Or did your lucid falcon forgot about you ?"
The wood sliver is burning down, will burn to ashes,
Only blizzard is spining my spindle,
And I myself white ,like as snow, already,
But i will wait for you, anyway.
And I myself white ,like as death, already,
But i will wait for you, anyway.
