Не со мной
Чайф Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
От чужих конвертов
Отпускаю мысли
Так легко по ветру
Улетает время
Тяжелей, но дольше
Я тебя не встречу
Не увижу больше
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной
Не могу привыкнуть
К глупости и фальши
Ты была так близко
Ты теперь всё дальше
Ты вчера ходила
На Агату Кристи
Я пинал по скверу
Золотые листья
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты,
Не со мной ты
Не со мной
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной
Разливал в стаканы
Я Киндзмараули
И чужие руки
Резали сулугуни
Пела она пеcни
Плохие, да фальшиво
В голове стучалось
Без тебя паршиво
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной ты
Не со мной
In the song "Не со мной" (Not with me), Чайф (Chayf) expresses the pain of separation as he sings about the loss of a loved one. The singer collects stamps of other people's letters, allowing his thoughts to fly freely, trying to release the painful memories that weigh heavily on him. However, the passing of time only seems to make the pain worse, as he realizes he will never meet or see his loved one again.
The singer then admits he can't get used to the foolishness and insincerity of others, as he remembers how close he was with his lost love who is now so far away. On the day she had gone to see the band Agatha Christie, he had been kicking around golden leaves in the park. These simple actions have become significant memories due to the absence of his loved one.
Чайф poignantly repeats the phrase "Не со мной ты" (Not with me you) throughout the whole song, further emphasizing the pain of separation, and the feeling of loneliness and emptiness. The use of alcohol and food as a coping mechanism is also highlighted. The singer mentions drinking Kindzmarauli, a Georgian semi-sweet red wine, as well as consuming Suluguni, a type of Georgian cheese. The use of foreign products emphasizes his sense of alienation and disconnectedness.

I collect stamps
From somebody’s envelopes
I let my dreams (flow)
Easily by the wind
Time is flowing away
Harder, but longer
I won’t get together with you
Won’t see you anymore
You are not with me… (x4)
I can not get used to
Foolishness and falseness
You had been so close
Now you are getting further
Yesterday you went to
“Agatha Christie”***
I was kicking (toeing) in the square
Golden leaves
You are not with me… (x4)
I was pouring out
Kinzmarauli*
And somebody’s hands
Were cutting Suluguni*
She was singing her songs
Badly and falsely
I had it hammering in my head
“It’s rotten without you”
You are not with me… (x4)

Перевод поэзии, а тем паче песни, очень сложная и субъективная штука. Респект за попытку, но давайте исчо.
