Slozy
Tears
Clozy
Tears
Pershoiu rosoiu
With the first dew
Povernus dodomu
I'll come back home
Ya oboviazkovo
For sure
U batkivskii khati
In my parents' house
Yaskravishi zori
The stars shine brighter
Vchyla mene maty
Mom taught me
Spivala kolyskovu
She sang a lullaby
Iz malenkoho stulchyka rano
From a tiny chair early
Vyrostaie velyka stsena
A big stage grows
I ves zal pulsuie z toboiu
And the whole hall pulses with you
I ty viddaiesh vsoho sebe
And you give your whole self
V nebo letyt hillia
Branches soar into the sky
Pershyi podykh yak podyv
The first breath is like awe
Pochatok ide vid nulia
The start goes from zero
Ne zabuvai khto ty
Don't forget who you are
Ne zabuvai khto ty
Don't forget who you are
Ne zabuvaiu doty
I won't forget till then
Sertsia vidkryti bramy
Hearts have open gates
Ya tak davno, ya tak davno ne bachyv mamy
It's been so long, it's been so long since I saw Mom
Slozy
Tears
Pershoiu rosoiu
With the first dew
Povernus dodomu
I'll come back home
Ya oboviazkovo
For sure
U batkivskii khati
In my parents' house
Yaskravishi zori
The stars shine brighter
Vchyla mene maty
Mom taught me
Spivala kolyskovu
She sang a lullaby
More
The sea
Ne take solone
Isn't as salty
Yak ti slozy shchastia
As those tears of joy
Yak tuha za domom
As longing for home
Koly-koly-kolyskova
Lullaby-lullaby-lullaby
Znovu tykhym ekhom
Again in a quiet echo
Peredast po kolu
Will pass around
Marabu leleka
Marabou stork
Peredast po kolu
Will pass around
Shchoby svoim ditiam
So its kids
Zaspivaty znovu
Can sing again
Ridnu kolyskovu
The native lullaby
Peredast po kolu
Will pass around
Shchoby svoim ditiam
So its kids
Zaspivaty znovu
Can sing again
Slozy
Tears
Pershoiu rosoiu
With the first dew
Povernus dodomu
I'll come back home
Ya oboviazkovo
For sure
U batkivskii khati
In my parents' house
Yaskravishi zori
The stars shine brighter
Vchyla mene maty
Mom taught me
Spivala kolyskovu
She sang a lullaby
Spivala kolyskovu
She sang a lullaby

колисковаlullaby

Колискова means 'lullaby'. It's a beautiful and evocative word that immediately brings to mind feelings of comfort, childhood, and home.

In the song, the artist repeatedly mentions the 'колискова' that his mother sang to him. It symbolizes the warmth of his childhood, the wisdom passed down from his parents, and the deep longing for home. The song even features a 'колискова' being passed on to the next generation, highlighting its enduring cultural significance.

Wellboy's "Додому (Dodomu)" is a really touching song about longing for home and family. He sings about returning home "Першою росою" [with the first dew] and how the stars are brighter in his parents' house. It’s clear he misses his mom a lot, saying "Я так давно, я так давно не бачив мами" [I haven't seen my mom for so long].

He also reflects on his journey from a small chair to a big stage, remembering to "Не забувай хто ти" [Don't forget who you are]. The song beautifully connects the personal feeling of missing home with a broader idea of passing down traditions, like a lullaby, to future generations. Even the sea isn't as salty as his tears of happiness and longing for home!
