Monikino Kino Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Prepáč mi, problém, že som unikla
že som ťa neriešila
Ale tá tvoja sila, presila
Tá ma prekvapila

A ani neviem, či som tým seba
Vlastne potešila
Snáď nikomu som neublížila

To by som nechcela

Prepáč mi, problém, že som unikla
že som ťa neriešila
Ale tá veľká sila, presila
Ma trochu zaskočila

Nanajvýš seba som tým zranila
čím som sa prezradila
No ale čo už som to spravila
A Zem sa nezrútila

"Ježko! Kde si bol?! Volam som, volal!
Veď kto iný tu so mnou bude sčítať hviezdy?"

Spravím ti čaj
A tak sa maj!

Overall Meaning

The song Kancelar by Monikino Kino tells the story of a woman who has escaped a problem and is apologizing for not dealing with it directly. She acknowledges the strength of the person she left behind and admits to possibly feeling better about herself for escaping. However, she also expresses regret if anyone was hurt by her actions. She seems to have a feeling of vulnerability and a sense of relief that the world did not end even though she made the decision to leave.

The song touches on the theme of escapism and how running away from problems might offer temporary comfort but can potentially cause more harm in the long run. The singer is owning up to her actions and showing remorse for any hurt she may have caused. The line "And the earth did not collapse" is a reminder that life goes on, even when we make mistakes. However, the ending line of the song "I'll make you tea, and so long!" implies that despite her remorse, she is still leaving the situation unresolved.

Prepáč mi, problém, že som unikla
I'm sorry for running away, causing you trouble

že som ťa neriešila
That I didn't try to work it out with you

Ale tá tvoja sila, presila
But your strength overpowered me

Tá ma prekvapila
And it caught me off guard

A ani neviem, či som tým seba
And I don't even know if it pleased me

Vlastne potešila
Actually made me happy

Snáď nikomu som neublížila
Hopefully, I didn't hurt anyone

To by som nechcela
I wouldn't want that

Ale tá veľká sila, presila
But that great force overpowered me

Ma trochu zaskočila
It surprised me a bit

Nanajvýš seba som tým zranila
At most, I hurt myself by revealing myself
