ORION
Katja Levstik Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
bo spet prav tak večer, kot je nocoj,
na modrem nebu daljen in svetal,
spet, kot nocoj bo Orijon sijal.
Zeleni hrast, ki pošumeva v noč,
takrat prastaro temno bo drevo,
šumel bo v vetru, kot teman spomin,
Skoz mrak bo trepetala,
istih zvezd srebrna luč,
a mladi par,
ki se bo tu takrat objel bo drug,
Prav kot nocoj,
v pomladni mrak,
sijal bo orion,
in prav tako, kot jaz
Morda, bo rekla deklica,
Kako je daleč, kako je lep,
kako zdaj sije,
njegovih sedem zvezd.
Čez tisoč let, ko naju ne bo več,
na nebu Orion sijal bo še,
poljubi me, za tisoč dolgih let,
ko tu mlad par se bo poljubil spet.
Čez tisoč let, ko naju ne bo več,
na nebu Orion sijal bo še,
poljubi me, za tisoč dolgih let,
ko tu mlad par se bo poljubil spet.
The song Orion by Katja Levstik is a beautiful and thoughtful reflection on the passage of time and the enduring power of love. The song is about a couple who are standing together beneath a green oak tree and looking up at the night sky, where they see the constellation Orion shining brightly. The lyrics suggest that even though the couple will not be alive in a thousand years, the constellation will still be there in the same way it is now, and another young couple will stand there in the future and marvel at its beauty.
The song is full of poignant images that evoke a sense of romantic nostalgia and the beauty of nature. The green oak tree rustling in the night wind is a symbol of the enduring power of life, even as everything else around it changes and evolves. The constellation Orion, with its seven stars, is a symbol of the constancy and beauty of the universe, which will continue to exist long after we are gone. The young couple in the song are also a symbol of love and innocence, and the way they embrace one another is a beautiful reminder of how love endures through time.
Overall, Orion is an incredibly moving and thoughtful song that speaks to the power of love and the beauty of the natural world. It is a touching tribute to the passage of time and the enduring nature of human relationships, and it will undoubtedly continue to inspire listeners for years to come.
