Дом (Dom) Lyrics in English by Rauf & Faik
Волшба is a beautiful and somewhat archaic word for "magic" or "sorcery," a more poetic alternative to the common волшебство.
In the song, the artists describe a state of euphoria so perfect it seems unreal. They sing, "Не смей думать что все это волшба" (Don't you dare think that all this is magic), implying that this profound happiness is not an illusion but a beautiful reality.
If you want an escape from heavy thoughts, "Дом" (Home) hits the spot. The track shifts smoothly between English cries for peace—"I want to be free without my pain" and "Please stand by me"—and warm Russian verses that sound like daydreaming in the sun. The singer pulls up visions of palm trees and warm sand with "Пальмы, песок" (Palms, sand) and feels a rush of pure joy whenever his person is close: "Счастья приток / Ощущаю когда я рядом с тобой" (A surge of happiness / I feel when I am near you).
He refuses to let darkness win. He even throws in a rare medical term, singing "Ангедония не наша тропа" (Anhedonia is not our path), actively rejecting the inability to feel pleasure, and tells his listener to leave depression behind in favor of pure euphoria. There is also a great geographic nod: he talks about ambition by saying he wants to "выплыть с Байкала" (swim out of Baikal). Lake Baikal is the deepest freshwater lake on Earth, so swimming out of it is a bold metaphor for breaking through impossible depths. Ultimately, all the striving cools down into a quiet plea to stay grounded, asking his love to simply be near: "Просто будь рядом со мной / Недалече обок близ дома своего" (Just be next to me / Not far away, beside your own home).
