Chorus 1
I remember those evenings
We lived in a studio together
Khrushchev-built houses (colloquially 'Khrushchevs') are Soviet standard panel or brick residential buildings, usually 5-story, with small apartments
You're tired of my words
My life is now to me nothing
Everyone turned off the electricity
About me and you everyone forgot
I lit all the last candles
Like this faded away all our love
Or: Like this all our love burnt out
Verse 1
In the studio we're together, and tightly the coffee is drunk
All that I see is a moth and smoke from cigarettes
Faded flowers in which your smell
Or: Tarnished flowers, where there's the scent of you
You left me them, you left me them
Verse 2
In the studio we're together, and tightly the coffee is drunk
All that I see is a moth and smoke from cigarettes
Faded flowers in which your smell
You left me them
Chorus 2
I remember those evenings
We lived in a studio together
You're tired of my words
My life is now to me nothing
Everyone turned off the electricity
About me and you everyone forgot
I lit all the last candles
Like this faded away all our love
Chorus 3
I remember those evenings
We lived in a studio together
You're tired of my words
My life is now to me nothing
Everyone turned off the electricity
About me and you everyone forgot
I lit all the last candles
Like this faded away all our love

SONG MEANING

“Vechera” invites us into the dimly lit evenings of a tiny khrushchevka flat, where two lovers once shared coffee, cigarette smoke, and whispered promises. The narrator rewinds those memories like an old cassette, picturing faded flowers that still carry her scent and the flutter of a lone moth in the dark. When the power is cut and only the last candles glow, he realizes their relationship has already burned out, just like the dying flames.

The song balances sweet nostalgia with raw heartbreak. Rauf & Faik use simple, vivid images to show how everyday moments can feel enormous when love is alive—and achingly empty when it is gone. “Vechera” becomes a melancholic postcard from a past romance, reminding listeners that, sometimes, the quietest nights leave the loudest echoes.
