коронаcrown

Корона means "crown". It's a visually striking and regal word that immediately evokes images of royalty and importance.

In the context of the song, while not explicitly about a queen, the mention of a "золота корона" (golden crown) alongside "роги золотії" (golden horns) suggests a mystical, almost mythical quality. It adds a touch of grandeur and ancient folklore, making the song feel like a timeless tale or

Kazka (which means "a tale" or "fairy story" in Ukrainian) is a traditional-style Ukrainian folk incantation performed by the vocal trio Shakima Trio. The song moves through the rhythm of a day and the cycle of the seasons — day, night, evening, morning, midnight, noon, sunrise and sunset are each named and gently denied ("a day is not a day"), setting up a dreamlike, riddle-like opening typical of old Ukrainian ritual songs.

From there the singer turns to the sun and the moon as living witnesses, asking the sun to shine on her always so she may be happy, loved and blooming, and asking the moon — who flies high and sees and hears everything — to watch over captive people crying for their parents and children, the way a cow calls for her calf or a mare for her foal.

The song closes as a blessing: a prayer that hearts stay clear and bright and that love lives in them always, with the sun repeatedly invoked to shine on the singer's family and their mountains, forests and valleys.
