Baby Mammoth Song - Mommy for a Baby Mammoth

Песня мамонтёнка – Мама для мамонтёнка (1981)

Today, we offer to your attention a cute and touching song of a baby mammoth from the cartoon “Mommy for a baby Mammoth”.

Once, far away in the north, a baby mammoth appeared from nowhere. He missed his mother very much. The wise old walrus remembered that the descendants of mammoths – elephants – now live in Africa, and he sent the baby mammoth on an ice floe to Africa.

The baby mammoth sings this song sailing on an ice floe on his way to Africa.

Lyrics and translation

  • По си́нему мо́рю, к зелёной земле́
    Плыву́ я на бе́лом своём корабле́.
    На бе́лом своём корабле́,
    На бе́лом своём корабле́.

  • Across the blue sea, to the green land
    I am sailing on my white ship.
    On my white ship,
    On my white ship.

  • Меня́ не пуга́ют ни во́лны, ни ве́тер,-
    Плыву́ я к еди́нственной ма́ме на све́те.
    Плыву́ я сквозь во́лны и ве́тер
    К еди́нственной ма́ме на све́те.
    Плыву́ я сквозь во́лны и ве́тер
    К еди́нственной ма́ме на све́те.

  • Neither waves nor wind scare me, -
    I'm sailing to the only mother in the world.
    I'm sailing through the waves and wind
    To the only mother in the world.
    I'm sailing through the waves and wind
    To the only mother in the world.

  • Скоре́й до земли́ я добра́ться хочу́,
    "Я здесь, я прие́хал!" - я ей закричу́.
    Я ма́ме свое́й закричу́,
    Я ма́ме свое́й закричу́...

  • I can't wait to reach the land,
    "I am here, I have arrived", - I will shout to her.
    I'll shout to my mom,
    I'll shout to my mom...

  • Пусть ма́ма услы́шит,
    Пусть ма́ма придёт,
    Пусть ма́ма меня́ непреме́нно найдёт!
    Ведь так не быва́ет на све́те,
    Чтоб бы́ли поте́ряны де́ти.
    Ведь так не быва́ет на све́те,
    Чтоб бы́ли поте́ряны де́ти.

  • Let mom hear me,
    Let mom come,
    Let my mother find me by all means!
    After all, this does not happen in the world,
    That the children are lost.
    After all, this does not happen in the world,
    That the children are lost.
