Lullabies are a vital component of oral tradition, serving social and cultural functions while conveying themes related to nature and mothers’ resistance to patriarchal structures. In Russian culture, lullabies primarily provide comfort and security to children, employing natural elements—such as snow, the moon, and night—as symbols of safety, while also reflecting cautionary aspects in the face of hardship. In Kurdish lullabies, nature symbolizes beauty and liberation, reflecting nomadic life and a strong connection to the environment. Animals in both cultures serve protective or warning roles: the cat in Russian folklore and birds in Kurdish folklore provide comfort and familial security, while the wolf, the mythical “Buka” in Russian tradition, and figures such as “Kemtîarî Sempan”, “Piawkhora Zela”, “Lulu”, and “Gurge Ge” in Kurdish folklore carry cautionary meanings. The use of poetic allegory and nature-based metaphors in both traditions communicates cultural values, moral lessons, and messages of life, struggle, and hope. This study, employing a descriptive and library-based approach, examines the similarities and differences in Russian and Kurdish lullabies from the perspective of cultural and comparative linguistics.
