Весна
Татьяна Молчанова Lyrics

The lyrics to Татьяна Молчанова's song "Весна" evoke a vivid picture of the early springtime when the melting snow and ice give way to the flowing waters. The repetition of the phrase "пошла, пошла полая вода" emphasizes the unstoppable nature of the water as it floods and covers everything in its path. The imagery of the flooding swamps and meadows being submerged by the rising waters creates a sense of transformation and renewal that is often associated with the arrival of spring.

As the water continues to rise, only one small island remains above the flood. This solitary island becomes a symbol of resilience and survival in the face of overwhelming change. Interestingly, instead of dwelling on the loss caused by the flood, the lyrics take a turn towards a more lighthearted note. The island becomes the site for a new cabaret, a place of entertainment and celebration. The repetition of the line "там построили новый кабак" emphasizes the significance and excitement surrounding this new establishment.
