Happy New Year
лучшая новогодняя музыка - abba Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No more champagne
And the fireworks are through
Here we are, me and you
Feeling lost and feeling blue
It's the end of the party
And the morning seems so grey
So unlike yesterday
Now's the time for us to say

Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I

Sometimes I see
How the brave new world arrives
And I see how it thrives
In the ashes of our lives
Oh yes, man is a fool
And he thinks he'll be okay
Dragging on, feet of clay
Never knowing he's astray
Keeps on going anyway

Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I

Seems to me now
That the dreams we had before
Are all dead, nothing more
Than confetti on the floor
It's the end of a decade
In another ten years time
Who can say what we'll find
What lies waiting down the line
In the end of eighty-nine

Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
Happy New Year
Happy New Year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try




If we don't we might as well lay down and die
You and I

Overall Meaning

The song "Happy New Year" by Abba is a bittersweet reflection on the end of a year and the beginning of a new one. The lyrics express a sense of loss and uncertainty but also a hope for a better future. The first verse describes the end of a party and the realization that the festivities are over. The happy moment is gone and the world seems dull and grey. The chorus wishes for a happy new year and a world where everyone is a friend. The second verse compares the new world to the old one and reflects on how foolish humanity can be. The ending is a nostalgic reflection on the past decade and a hopeful look at the future.


The lyrics are full of imagery and symbolism. The champagne and fireworks represent celebration and joy, but they are over now. The image of feeling lost and blue is a common theme in Abba's music, and it suggests a sense of longing for something that is lost. The line "man is a fool and he thinks he'll be okay" is a reflection on human folly and the tendency to be blind to the problems in the world. The line about dreams being dead and confetti on the floor is a powerful metaphor that suggests that the good times are over and it is time to face reality.
