こわれた夢 (Kowareta Yume) [Уходящие сны]

Song Meaning

The lyrics paint a stark picture of irreversible departure, a definitive closing of a chapter. The narrator declares, "Я не вернусь в те дни" (I will not return to those days), immediately establishing a tone of finality. This isn't just a temporary absence; it's a severance from a past characterized by a specific, almost dreamlike imagery: "Где в небе вышит / Яблочный круг луны" (Where in the sky is embroidered / An apple-shaped circle of the moon). This unique celestial image grounds the memory in a singular, almost fantastical past that the narrator can no longer access or revisit.
