танцювати поки живі (Dance While We’Re Alive) Meaning & Lyrics (Molodi | Monokate)
The poet mentions weaving a flower crown from periwinkle and cornflowers, a beautiful Ukrainian tradition. This songwriter describes choosing to follow your heart more than your head. The line ‘And we’ll dance while we’re alive’ serves as the song’s warm chorus.
Sohodni ya skhovaiusia vid novynToday I’ll hide from the news,
Bo znovu nahribaie z usikh storinbecause it’s overwhelming me from all sides.
Yak povernuty chas, de ya buv malymHow can I turn back time to when I was little,
Koly tsei svit zdavavsia takym prostym?when this world seemed so simple?
Znovu tysiachi prychyn, shchob zabuty khto my yeThere are a thousand reasons again to forget who we are,
Khto postiino hraie roli, toi bezhluzdo prohraieand whoever constantly plays a role is senselessly losing.
A my obyraiem zhyty, yak nas sertse povedeBut we choose to live however our hearts lead us,
V hrudiakh rytm bie, v hrudiakh rytm biethe rhythm beats in our chests, the rhythm beats.
A v kryvoho tantsiuAnd in this winding dance,
Ta ne vyvedem koncwe just can’t find the end.
Shcho vyvedem ta y stanemOnce we lead it out, we’ll finally come to a stop.
A my budem tantsiuvaty poky zhyviAnd we’ll dance while we’re alive,
Doviriaty bilshe sertsiu, nizh holovitrusting our hearts more than our heads.
Vchora buly stari trably, zavtra noviYesterday brought old troubles, tomorrow brings new ones,
A my budem tantsiuvaty poky zhyvibut we’ll dance while we’re alive,
Doviriaty bilshe sertsiu, nizh holovitrusting our hearts more than our heads.
Vchora buly stari trably, zavtra noviYesterday brought old troubles, tomorrow brings new ones,
A my budem tantsiuvaty poky zhyviand we’ll keep dancing while we’re alive.
(Poky zhyvi)(While we’re alive!)
My kryvoho tantsiu ydem, kontsia yomu ne znaidemWe’re walking through the winding dance, and we won’t find its end.
A khto khoche vyvesty, treba vinochok splestyBut whoever wants to lead it out must weave a flower crown.
A ni kintsia ni ladu, z kym ya yoho poveduThere’s no end and no order, who will I lead it with,
Z zelenoho barvinku ta synoho vasylkumade of green periwinkle and blue cornflowers?
A ya znaiu shcho sertse ne pidvedeAnd I know that the heart won’t let us down,
(V hrudiakh rytm bjie, i hrudiakh rytm bie)(the rhythm beats in our chests, the rhythm beats.)
Vidpusty i nekhai vono provedeLet it go and just let it guide you,
(V hrudiakh rytm bjie, i hrudiakh rytm bie)(the rhythm beats in our chests, the rhythm beats.)
A my budem tantsiuvaty poky zhyviAnd we’ll dance while we’re alive,
Doviriaty bilshe sertsiu, nizh holovitrusting our hearts more than our heads.
Vchora buly stari trably, zavtra noviYesterday brought old troubles, tomorrow brings new ones,
A my budem tantsiuvaty poky zhyvibut we’ll dance while we’re alive,
Doviriaty bilshe sertsiu, nizh holovitrusting our hearts more than our heads.
Vchora buly stari trably, zavtra noviYesterday brought old troubles, tomorrow brings new ones,
A my budem tantsiuvaty poky zhyviand we’ll keep dancing while we’re alive.
