For a native USA listener this probably just sounds nice.. but for a born Slovenian - this touches the very soul. Troopers, perhaps better U didn't understand those lines - man in tears can't sing so good..
Great performance of a great song! For those who don't speak Slovene, here is my rough translation to English (not the best one, I know), just to help you understand this beautiful lyrics, especially in this chaotic and difficult time. The Linden tree was turning green There in the fragrant grove, sprinkled me with flowers, I felt like I was in heaven. It streched its branches High up to the sky And reached the deepest Parts of my heart. It invited little birds To its shaddow And when I was laying under it I felt refreshed. Now the poor tree Is barely alive, The winter took its Flowers and green leaves. Just sleep, my dear, my love, You wil not sleep forever, New Spring time will come And new flowers will grow. There will be birds again, Happy birds, Singing the joyful songs In your green branches. ORIGINAL: (slo): Lipa zelenela je tam v dišečem gaju, s cvetjem me posipala, d'jal sem da sem v raju. Veje raztezavala k nebu je visoko meni pa je do srca segala globoko. Ptičice je lipica v senčico vabila, kadar ležal sem pod njo, me je ohladila. Revica pa je sedaj skoraj ovenela, cvetje listje zeleno zima ji je vzela. Spavaj, draga ljubica! večno ne boš spala, nova pomlad zelena novi cvet bo gnala. Zopet bodo ptičice, ptičice vesele, pesmi nam prepevale, pesmi žvrgolele.
This is a real Slovenian anthem. The linden tree in Slovenian history is a symbol of companionship, friendship, kindness, and mutual help. The profound message of Vilhar's poem is that love is eternal and its energy never dies.
Globoko sporočilo celemu svetu, da zopet bodo ptičice vesele, pesmi nam prepevale. Neverjetno lepa interpretacija. Hvala vam. Ponos in hvaležnost iz Slovenje.
That. Was. Beautiful. Thank you! I'm doing a daily musical gig from my balcony, playing all kinds of songs for retired people in the buildings across the street to keep their spirits up during all of this and this one will definitely be on my next playlist! Best regards, all the best and stay safe - from Slovenia with gratitude!
OMG, this brought tears to my eyes. An excellent performance of this song of resilience and hope in times of hardship. This is one of my favourite folk songs and hearing you sing it so well, down to the excellent pronounciation of what must be a difficult language to you is really moving. A symbol of how we are all much more alike than different, that reaches out across the distance and touches people's hearts. You've forged a beautiful connection with this. -Exactly what we need during these Corona virus times. Thank you for this, and stay safe and God bless you. - From an Aussie Slovene currently in lockdown with her family amids the beautiful Slovenian countryside.
Salut to U.S. Army Chorus for this beautiful gesture, preforming one of the most beautilful traditional Slovene songs. With deepest respect to whole U.S. Army forces!
Lipa zelenela je translates to The linden tree grew green. It's 170 years old song describing a linden tree trough one year cycle. Wishing about it growing green when Spring returns to the land. And linden to Slovenes is like maple tree to Canadians. You can spot linden trees growing all around our little country. It's part of our national pride. To hear these fine men singing this evergreen song from the other part of the world, a song in a language only about 2 million people speak, a song about craving for better times ... This is pure gold. I salute you fine men. Bravo.
LIPA ZELENELA JE for me is one of the most beautiful songs writed by Miroslav Vilhar melodic site is created by Davorin Jenko, it is usualy performed on funeral for time when is deceased put into the grave.. it is very emotional even for me because im also singer in choir... evry time when i heard it or sing it i remember on my grand parents and friends who passed away the lyrics is also very conected with life because it talks about Linden tree from spring to winter and present circle of life.

Super izvedba meni najljubše in najdražje pesmi ... Izgovorjava pa odlična, glede na dejstvo, da niste "native speakers of slovene language". Moj poklon.
This song is deeply connected to the history of Slovene nation. It was the last publicly performed Slovenian song before the period of cultural silence which started on 12.12. 1941. Thank you for your performance.
Amazing, congralutaions, this is one of may most dearest song at all, so touching and moving, got tears in my eyes, because its important historical content of my Nation, so wonderful performans, really incredible... Please receive my deep thanks and congratualitions, marvelous indeed. God bless you and your Nation.
I'm simply amazed. I'm not used someone who doesn't speak our language would be able to sing that song so nice. Especeally since this song, sincirely, is far from easy one. Congratulations and best regards from Slovenia
Wow, just wow. As a choir singer, I can tell you first hand ... that is a very difficult song even for us, Slovenian folk. Your interpretation is just amazing. Thank you for reminding us of who we are and what we can do if we stick together. Stay home and stay safe.
It's common to hear it on funerals, but such are the times. No biggy. Huge respect for singing that song in pristine Slovene language without foreign accents!
could be translate as etnical song too. it means noone know who wrote it and there is many different lyrics on this song and all are right cuz there is no proof who and when wrote it.

Matej X, nihče ne bi mogel tega opisati tako točno, kot si ti. And it is true, no one can understand what is being sung but a true Slovenian!
I’m Russian in Russian we say : Lipa zelenela Uje 🥰 I understand 80% of this song ! And it’s so beautiful ❤️🌸🌸🌸🌸

Great performance of a great song! For those who don't speak Slovene, here is my rough translation to English (not the best one, I know), just to help you understand this beautiful lyrics, especially in this chaotic and difficult time.
The Linden tree was turning green
There in the fragrant grove,
sprinkled me with flowers,
I felt like I was in heaven.
It streched its branches
High up to the sky
And reached the deepest
Parts of my heart.
It invited little birds
To its shaddow
And when I was laying under it
I felt refreshed.
Now the poor tree
Is barely alive,
The winter took its
Flowers and green leaves.
Just sleep, my dear,
my love,
You wil not sleep forever,
New Spring time will come
And new flowers will grow.
There will be birds again,
Happy birds,
Singing the joyful songs
In your green branches.

v senčico vabila, little birds into her shade,
kadar ležal sem pod njo, whenever I lay beneath her boughs

Revica pa je sedaj Now the poor thing
skoraj ovenela, has almost withered,

zima ji je vzela. her blossoms and green leaves.
Spavaj, draga ljubica, Sleep, my dearest one,
večno ne boš spala, since you will not sleep forever
