Bolo Nebolo
Korben Dallas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bolo, nebolo, na dne jazera nežije nič len ticho.
V tme a hlboko, sopka už vydýchla,
Naveky ostalo ticho.

Padá vrstva za vrstvou samoty
Ako nánosy mäkkého blata
A to málo svetla, čo prenikne dole,
Zasvieti na moje spomienky holé.

Bolo, nebolo,
Na dne jazera nežije nikto len ticho.
Bolo, nebolo,
Na dne jazera nežije nikto len ticho.
Bolo, nebolo,
Na dne jazera nežije nikto len ticho.
Bolo, nebolo,
Na dne jazera nežije nikto len ticho.

Bolo, nebolo, na dne jazera nežije nikto len ticho.
V tme a hlboko, sopka už vydýchla,
Naveky ostalo ticho.

Padá vrstva za vrstvou samoty
Ako nánosy mäkkého blata
A to málo svetla, čo prenikne dole,
Zasvieti na moje spomienky holé.





Bolo, nebolo, na dne jazera nežije nič len ticho.
Len ticho.

Overall Meaning

The song "Bolo Nebolo" by Korben Dallas is a meditation on the concept of emptiness and silence. The opening verse, "Bolo, nebolo, na dne jazera nežije nič len ticho," can be translated to mean "Once upon a time, at the bottom of the lake, there was nothing but silence." The singer is reflecting on the idea that there is nothingness at the heart of existence – a void that is both frightening and alluring. The second verse, "V tme a hlboko, sopka už vydýchla, Naveky ostalo ticho," is a metaphor for the inescapable nature of emptiness. The singer imagines a volcano exhaling its final breath and ushering in an eternal silence. The repeated refrain of "Bolo, nebolo, na dne jazera nežije nikto len ticho" emphasizes the idea that silence is the only constant in an ever-changing world.


The third and fourth verses explore the idea of isolation and the weight of solitude. The line "Padá vrstva za vrstvou samoty" can be translated to mean "Layer upon layer of loneliness falls." The singer is grappling with the idea that solitude can be suffocating, like being buried alive under the weight of one's own thoughts. The final line, "Len ticho," is a haunting conclusion that reinforces the theme of emptiness and silence.

[Once upon a time, 
nobody is living down, 
at lake bottom,
just silence...]

Deep in the darkness,
volcano last breath for ever, 
just silence remains.

Layer by layer of loneliness 
falling down,
as sludge of soft mud,
and the rest of light,
that leaks down,
shine to my naked thoughts

[Once upon a time, 
nobody is living down,
at lake bottom
just silence...]

Deep in the darkness,
volcano last breath for ever, 
just silence remains.

Once upon a time, 
nothing is living down,
at lake bottom
just silence...
just silence...
just silence...
