Zemlyane - Trava U Doma (w/ English translation)

- This great old song is not only part of the Soviet/Russian music legacy loved by many but also it became an unofficial anthem of people working in Russian space industry (astronauts as well of course).
Below is my take on translating the song's lyrics into English. It's not a literal translation and has slight improvisation here and there either. I did so because I thought word-for-word could ruin the mood and the beauty of the song. So the following text is made to convey the meaning and the mood of the song though it still stays quite close to the original lyrics. It's not intended to rhyme but it does sometimes. And I'm not so good at English as you might notice so I believe there are some mistakes. Anyhow I'm sure it's understandable and gives to those who don't speak Russian an idea what this song is about well enough!
So here we go...
The Earthmen - Grass By The House
Verse 1:
Earth is in the viewport, Earth is in the viewport
Earth in the viewport is clearly seen
Like a son misses his mother, like a son misses his mother
We yearn for the one and only Earth
And the stars above our heads, the stars above our heads
Are slightly closer but as always cold
And like when the sun is missing, just like in the time of an eclipse
We're waiting for the light, we're dreaming about Earth
Chorus:
And what we're dreaming of is not the roar of a spaceport
Not this icily cold and bluish view
What we're seeing is the grass by our houses
Oh this bright-green, this bright-green lively grass
Verse 2:
We're flying in the orbits, unbeaten murky tracks
Of the vast that's riddled with meteorites
Our risk and valor not in vain, the cosmic music in our veins
We feel it when we talk and when we work
When evening glow or day break comes the soft mist clasps the globe in its arms
And slowly lets go when it fades away
The son misses his mother, the son misses his mother
And the mother waits for her son and so does Earth
Chorus:.
This is an update to the description: In 2009, Roscosmos announced that this song will be the official anthem of the Russian cosmonauts and it's played every time when new space crew is about to board their bus which is driving them towards the launch site in Baikonur.
And rifhtfully so.
Afterall, earth is our OUR world, not the harsch coldness of space.
Earth is our mother.
We, as a species, will and should always be thankful to our mother earth.
My mother's and my favorite russian song, she flies now in space and is singing this awesome song... love and miss her forever and ever!!!!
salute to your mother
She is dead and rotten)

Im love too cuz is like cool maya si wa ha si salam trava trava o doma si ro ma ya trava
I'm not even Russian in the slightest and I love this so much. Thank you S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
Wait, hold up. When did STALKER ever have this song?
@@BottomOfTheDumpsterFire Stalker: Anomaly mod.
I don't understand the beautiful Russian language too, but Stalker Anomaly got me into appreciating Russian songs too.
Песни СССР . Советские песни !
@@warlogaful there is a rock remix of it on atomic heart now
My uncle used to sing this song a lot . His voice was almost identical to this singers .He has passed away this month and in Space with rest of the other stars . Love This song . Never gets old .
may he rest in peace
I heard this song in a old Taxi ride in Russia and I immediately shazamed it. I wish I could speak some Russian and so that I can ask questions about Soviet era to old Taxi driver, nice Soviet vibes.

Hahaha yeah, ну погоди!
Had to check this song out after learning about the cosmonaut tradition of listening to it prior to a launch.
Thanks from Uruguay! I love this song!

Que onda pibe todo bien? Ndeaaaa
It looks childish but this is a so grown up song, must bring so strong emotions on Astronauts.
th-cam.com/video/ynnQUdjJNNg/w-d-xo.html
It doesn't look childish at all, it just IS grown up.
Kosmonauts please! We know and love the old greek word Kosmos.
I just discovered this song after TH-cam recommended a video of the "most surprising/uncommon instruments"in VoiceKids. For me last year two young girls from Russia took the song and did their own magic with it. (Other then the judges I loved the slow piano part so much). And oh wonder - it brought me to the original. I am not from Russia, but I learn the language at the moment and try to understand more of this fascinating country. Maybe a myth, maybe just a prejudice, but it is said that Russians have their own melancholy mood - maybe like a cosmic background radiation.. For me, you can feel it in this song.
1:38 I really love the solo
This song brings my childhood memories, when I wathed Wolf and Hare (Wilk i Zając / Ну Погоди) at my grandmas old CRT tv. Ah, those good times...
Ah yes. I remember hearing it in the robot episode
Sounds like a perfect song for a Sovietwave playlist.
Indeed
I found out about this song a few years ago after reading the book Endurance. It's awesome. I love that it's a serious rock song, but the lyrics are inherently very sensitive and human.
You did a good job with the translation! :)
The singer used to study with my father that's why he loves this song.
This song inspired me to do an animation about the beauty of space
Regards from Cracow, I used to watch Nu Pogodi when I was a child, there was such a song in some scene, anyway there were plenty of russians songs I like till now but I don`t know the title
Yes i love nu pogodi. Here is the episode the song has been in: th-cam.com/video/IYX6pgH3UEA/w-d-xo.html
(7:00)
Here you can find original: th-cam.com/video/UsG8VNaDfDc/w-d-xo.html
ha Nu pogodi funny that even across the world we saw the same cartoons.
Elon Musk deep fake brought me here
Thanks you very much for the translation of that great song!
I remember watching this in my orphanage when I was a kid before I was adopted and moved to the United States of America.
God I miss being a child. It was easier back then, I didn’t question God or procrastinate. I think God was with me then.
космос настоящая романтика
Да,да вот только опасная до зубов.
I'm from another Slavic country so I don't get many Russian words in the song, but provided your English translation, the meaning got smoother as if I were a native. Good job, nice song, although I still do prefer the version from "Валерия Базыкина и Манижа Аминова", even though they're children.
hey, this one is unbeaten original :)
U certainly did a good job translating the song
Zajebiste! Wolk i Zajec
Greetings from finland! Love this song
I would love to know how I got here from dire straits...... but on the upside this song is excellent
Thanks, Iam polish but can't understand nothing besides trawa zielona :) nice song 👌
beautiful song many thanks for the upload!!
Dont know how to dislike this masterpiece класс
Я должен когда выросту полететь в космос
Обязательно!
Полетишь обязательно... Когда вырастишь, и колоться начнешь) На всех планетах побываешь, и с инопланетянами познакомишься)
У тебя все впереди! )))
@@alexandersamodelkin5708 Что ты такой злой то?)
Ну кстати лет 20 назад эту мечту вполне можно было считать наивной, однако сейчас доступный космический туризм не выглядит чем-то невероятным.
@@NeiroOverMind Да сейчас сделать космический туризм, не составит вообще никаких проблем. Ничего не мешает сделать космический автобус. Который выведет туристов в космос, облетит вокруг земли, и вернет их обратно на землю.
PS: Но цена такого туризма, будет не подъемной для обычного человека! Да и даже для среднего человека.
@@alexandersamodelkin5708 Я не зря написал что ДОСТУПНЫЙ космический туризм не выглядит чем-то недостижимым. Т.е слетать в космос на ракете не дороже чем отдохнуть в тайланде. Сейчас это разумеется будет очень дорогом, но я имею ввиду ближайшие лет 20-30.
Ну что, вырос?)
Один из величайших хитов ХХ века!
Правда?
@@jakshybala4113 Конечно. Если не считать "хитами" современных ноунеймов, с миллиардными просмотрами
Anyone here after Nu Pagadi?
of course
What else could have sparked it?
No, who or what is that?
@@mathildewesendonck7225 it’s a Russian cartoon
"Hare! Wolf! Hare! Wolf .." ("Well, you wait!") 😁👍
good job, thanks for the translation, I enjoyed that
Very much reminds me of Heinlein's "Green Hills of Earth" poem.
every 12 apr. i listen this great song.
daka petkof why on the 12th of April?
Nerfer squad it is because that is the day the first man went into space. also this song was written in celebration of that date.

Некогда не надоест ета песня. Спасибо бабушке с дедушкой что напоминают про матушку Россию :)
Я как бы думал, что эта песня, как вы говорите, вышла при "ебаном и уёбищном совке"

International Trooper, качество немногих песен не отменяет бедности и уёбищности совка, сожравшего почти 150 лет нашей некогда великой страны
Причём тут "Матушка Россия?"
no, this song is about memory of home
fantastikaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I was about 5 years old in Russia when I heard this song in a cartoon there there is a wolf and a rabbit fight a lot and the wolf trys chasing the rabbit and yeah
I have no idea where I heard this. It kept playing in my head and when I was searching for the Russian "Million rorses" song or whatever the name was I found this
Your channel is awesome!!

It kinda reminds me of space oddity in some way...

V Kosmos!
Tero estas en la iluminfenestro,
Tero estas en la iluminfenestro,
Tero estas videbla en la iluminfenestro.
Kiel filo sopiras pri sia patrino,
Kiel filo sopiras pri sia patrino,
Ni sopiras pri Tero, ĝi estas sola.
Kaj steloj tamen,
Kaj steloj tamen
Estas iom pli proksime, sed ankoraŭ malvarmaj.
Kaj kiel dum la horoj de eklipso,
Kaj kiel dum la horoj de eklipso
Ni atendas la lumon kaj vidas surterajn sonĝojn.
Kaj sonĝas ni ne pri muĝado de la kosmohaveno,
Ne pri ĉi tiu glacia blueco
Kaj sonĝas ni pri la herbo, pri la herbo apud la domo
Pri la verda, la verda herbo.
Kaj ni flugas tra orbitoj,
Tra vojetoj ne banalaj,
La spaco estas kudrita per meteoritoj,
Pravigita risko kaj kuraĝo,
Spaca muziko
Flosas en nian aferan konversacion.
En iu mata nebuleto
Tero en la iluminfenestro,
Vespera kaj frua aŭroro,
Kaj filo sopiras pri sia patrino,
Kaj filo sopiras pri sia patrino,
Patrino atendas la filon,
Kaj Tero atendas la filojn.
Kaj sonĝas ni ne pri muĝado de la kosmohaveno,
Ne pri ĉi tiu glacia blueco
Kaj sonĝas ni pri la herbo, pri la herbo apud la domo
Pri la verda, la verda herbo.
Мы любим всех
Ну погоди

👀📺🚀🎧 #childhood🇬🇪
I came here after the video of the parot and hamster (9 GAG)
We pray for one last landing on the globe that gave us birth
Let us rest our eyes on the fleecy skies
And the cool green hills of Earth
That's how Robert Heinlein imagined spacemen expressing the same sentiments, a generation before Yuri Gagarin's flight.
And speaking of Yuri Gagarin: th-cam.com/video/LLRPGfrxTxQ/w-d-xo.html
I rode with Yuri Gagarin alone above the Earth
"You're far from home, now what's in this for you?"
"We must rise above our fear, step out on this new frontier,
"Earth's no stopping place, we're still just passing through"
Passing through, passing through
Sometimes happy, sometimes blue
Glad that I ran into you;
Tell the people that you saw me passing through
I hardly live to this day ... But I hope one day the policy will be rejected, like atavism. And humanity will forget enmity. And we will again dream of conquering the stars. Maybe one day...
Это возможно лишь при общей глобализации с общей идеей создания всемирного коммунизма.
