Сердце поэта
Peter Nalitch Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
В бешеном ритме плечи трясутся
Танцы, танцы, смешные слова -
Это всё, что так любишь ты.
Пустая ты, нет в тебе искры Божьей,
И зачем я тебя полюбил?
И зачем предпочел тебя спорту?
Выйди-ка вон из зала (давай, давай)
Давишь ты, с мысли сбиваешь
Позы нелепые, что за кокетство
В годы твои старые
Пустая ты, нет в тебе искры Божьей,
И зачем я тебя полюбил?
И зачем предпочел тебя спорту?
Катится, катится жизнь по наклонному борту.
Пустая ты, нет в тебе искры божьей.
И шарм, если был, то иссяк.
Высохло всё обаяние.
Так затупились стрелы о сердце поэта.
О железное сердце поэта.
In Peter Nalitch's song "Сердце поэта" (translated as "Poet's Heart"), the lyrics portray a sense of disappointment and bitterness towards a person who lacks depth and genuine qualities. The opening lines express the singer's heartache and the simultaneous trembling of their shoulders due to the erratic beat of their heart. The following lines mention dances and funny words, which are the only things the person they loved seems to value. The singer questions why they fell for someone who is empty and devoid of the spark of God within them. The person they loved is likened to a tilted ship, suggesting that their life is headed in a chaotic and unsteady direction.
The chorus of the song repeats the sentiment that the person is empty, lacking the divine spark within them. The singer wonders why they chose this person over others, emphasizing their disappointment. The lyricist describes the person's old poses as foolish and their behavior as coquettish, possibly indicating that despite their emptiness, they try to attract attention in vain. The repetition of the empty nature of this person accentuates the singer's growing disillusionment. The song ends with the metaphor of the poet's heart becoming dull and arrows losing their sharpness, reflecting the impact and damage caused by this heartless individual.
Overall, "Сердце поэта" explores the theme of unrequited love and the realization that the person the singer loved is shallow and lacks substance. It expresses the pain and regret that comes from investing feelings in someone who ultimately disappoints, leaving the singer with a heart that has lost its luster.

О железное сердце поэта.
Oh, the iron heart of a poet.
