Фіалки
Океан Ельзи Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Іди кажи "так", або "ні", або "так"
Або "ні", або "так", а може, ти знаєш, як?
Мої тисячі флейт загубилися навесні
У хвилі нових атак.

Іди кажи "так", або "ні", або "так"
Або "ні", або "так", бачиш мої листи.
Я додому, коли, повернутися захотів –
Не було куди іти.

Приспів:
Де ми є? Хто ми є?
Плаваєм, поки є сили.
І летять, як горять наші дні.
Нам довго лишилось, чи ні?

Мінімум волі за мінімум долі.
На мінному полі фіалки не цвітуть.
Не лякайся піти – не далеко таки вони.
Бачиш, за нами йдуть?

Іди кажи "так", або "ні", або "так",
Або "ні", або "так", чим тобі не любов?
Залишили нам день неонової весни,
Здати сказали кров.

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of "Фіалки" by Океан Ельзи (Okean Elzy) urge the listener to make a definitive decision – saying "yes," "no," or "maybe" – because the uncertainty is overwhelming. The lyrics describe the loss of a thousand "flutes" in the spring, which could be interpreted as a metaphor for beauty, hope, or inspiration. The singer has faced new attacks, and their purpose or direction is unclear. The chorus poses existential questions about who they are, where they are going, and how much time they have left. Despite this uncertainty, they persist and continue to move forward until they no longer have the strength to do so.


The following verse evokes a sense of loss and longing. The singer writes of letters, returning home, and finding nowhere to go. It's unclear what the situation is, but it's clear that nothing is quite as it seems. The chorus repeats, reinforcing the idea that the singer is searching for meaning in the face of an unknown future.
