The song "Колыбельная" (Lullaby) by Jah Khalib tells a story of love, strength, and the connection between individuals. The lyrics depict the narrator being exhausted and pushing forward, while feeling protected by something greater than themselves. The line "По миру меня гнали вольные ветра" (Free winds drove me around the world) suggests that the narrator has faced challenges and hardships, but has managed to overcome them with the help of the powerful force that protects them. The mention of the "маленький малыш" (little baby) represents the importance of life and the bond shared between the narrator and their loved one. Even when things get tough and it feels like they have become strangers to each other, they see their souls in the eyes of their child, reminding them of the love they share. The narrator admits that they may not be able to soar in the clouds or be a romantic person, but they would give their life for their loved one. There is a sense of trust and faithfulness expressed in the line "И ты бы никогда не предала меня" (And you would never betray me). As the song continues, it questions the eternal battle between good and evil, and the passing of time that turns cities into dust. However, the connection between the narrator and their loved one remains strong, symbolized by the continuous flow of rivers combining to form an ocean. Overall, "Колыбельная" portrays the power of love, the ability to overcome obstacles, and the importance of cherishing the relationships that bring joy and meaning to our lives.
