Ramonda is a flower that, even when it withers, a drop of water is enough to revive it, (phoenix-flower) is a symbol of the survival of Serbia in the First World War, whose army rose from the ashes like a phoenix and liberated Serbia from the Austro-Hungarians and Bulgarians. Ramonda grows only in Serbia. Serbia gave one third of its population in the first war. ❤🇷🇸

@@markomarkovic5502 Ramonda nije bila moj favorit, ali sada kada predstavlja zemlju u kojoj sam rodjena, svim srcem je podrzavam i glasam za nju na ESC ( ne zivim u Srbiji tako da mogu. ) Jedini predstavnici Srbije za koje nisam glasala su bile " Moje 3"
The last line ,,dize se iz pepela jedna lila ramonda" she says there like ,,rising from the ashes, one lila ramonda" and it is for me the most beutyfull moment
This one reminds me something like OST-theme from "The Last of Us" or another same game (show). Especially at the beginning section) Congratulation, Serbia. My 5th place so far
Ramonda is a lilac flower that can die and come back to life if it is watered. Ramonda is a national flower(fenix flower), but only with symbolic meaning here.. This is a kind of lullaby for a lonely and depressed person, spending nights in her black thoughts with no sleeping, with no one to hear her.. And every morning she still finds a reason to try again and give a chance to new day
ok , ali ZNACENJE PESME je u ZADNJEM STIHU.....IZASLA IZ PEPELA JEDNA LILA RAMONDA....govori o stradanju u Prvom Sv Ratu...i Nastavku zivota posle toga...Pozdrav Iz Beograda
Hvala na divnim komentarima, ali volela bih da objasnim pravo znacenje pesme zbog izuzetne vaznosti dogadjaja kome je posvecena. Tokom Prvog svetskog rata, nakon dve velike pobede srpske vojske protiv austrougarske, srpska vojska je ipak pretrpela velike gubitke, i morala da se povuce pred najezdom mnogo brojnijeg i jaceg neprijatelja. Jedini izlaz je bio odlazak u saveznicku Grcku, preko Albanije. Povlacenje je pocelo u kasnu jesen i nastavilo se i u toku zime, po jakoj hladnoci, i po veoma divljem i nepristupacnom terenu. Zajedno sa vojskom krenuli si i civili: zena, deca i starci....desetine hiljada njih, na put dalek preko 1000 km. U Grcku su stigli sa velikim gubicima i brojem umrlih usput. Veliki broj njih je umro u samoj Grckoj, gde su njihova tela bacana u more, jer ih je bilo nemoguce sve sahraniti. Nakon oporavka i pomoci saveznika, srpska vojska se krajem 1915.godine vratila na ratiste, nastavila da se bori protiv neprijatelja, i na kraju odnela pobedu.Srpski Narod koji je proveo godine u izbeglistvu je konacno mogao da se 1918.godine vrati u Srbiju i iznova izgradi zemlju za koju je Austrougarska tvrdila da je izbrisana sa lica zemlje. Ramonda je postala simbol ovog dogadjaja jer je cvet koji moze da prezivi najgore uslove, i opet procveta , bas kao i srpski narod. Izvinjavam se na ovom duzem objasnjenju, ali smatrala sam svojom duznoscu da objasnim da je pesma " Ramonda" za nas vise od pesme, i da iskazem divljenje Teja Dori za sve sto je uradila, i za poruku koju je poslala. Sigurna sam da je medju stradalima bilo i njenih predaka koji bi bili ponosni na nju. Veliki pozdrav i prijateljske i herojske Srbije!
@@blanka785 Lepo objašnjeno! Reći da je simbol “primirja” nije fer prema žrtvama koje su se borile za tu pobedu, i prema njihovim porodicama koje su se posle borile za oporavak nakon što je izgubljena jedna trećina kompletnog stanovništva. Ramonda je simbol pobede i ponovnog rođenja, simbol neodustajanja našeg naroda posle neverovatnih poraza, simbol nade.
[Verse 1] There's no rest, no rest for me I am restless, I cannot sleep The night won't give way to dawn Doomed is the one who is alone. [Verse 2] It's as if underwater silence reigns I'm screaming, but you can't hear my pain Beyond the mountains the gleam is white Yet there's no end in sight This is the path for the wounded. [Pre-chorus] And there's no one to guide me now Except Danitsa, the bright morning star The world's a pyre burning each flower Where have they disappeared, those lilac ramondas? [Chorus] Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda. [Pre-chorus] And there's no one who would guide me Because all the stars are sound asleep Saying prayers is of no avail Where have they disappeared, those lilac ramondas? [Chorus, break] Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda. [Chorus] Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda. [Outro] From the ashes rises up a single lilac ramonda. 1) Zvezda Danica, pronounced as Danitsa/Danitza, is a feminine name personifying the morning star/Venus in Slavic mythology; it can be found in Serbian lyric poetry. 2) In this context, lilac is a pale purple colour, not a type of flower. 3) The island at the beginning of the video could be a reference to the Greek island of Vido and the surrounding sea in which over 5,000 Serbian soldiers were buried during World War I. A Serbian poet Milutin Bojić dedicated his poem 'Plava grobnica' (The Blue Tomb) to these soldiers and this 'blue tomb' is actually the sea around Vido. In this poem, Bojić expressed the tragic fate of Serbia, whose army had passed through the snow-covered mountains of Albania to get to the Greek islands of Corfu and Vido, where they found refuge and shelter. 4) The title of this song references a flower called 'Ramonda serbica' in Latin, a species endemic to Serbia. The mountain called Rtanj is the home to this flower which was discovered in 1874 by a famous Serbian botanist Josif Pančić. Being a living fossil from the Tertiary period, it is capable of surviving extremely harsh conditions. Even if it is completely withered, just a few drops of water can revive it. Natalie's ramonda (natalijina ramonda), the flower of the same genus, is very similar to 'Ramonda serbica'. It was named after Queen of Serbia Natalija Obrenović, and it is worn as an emblem on Armistice Day in Serbia. This flower, also known as the 'phoenix flower', symbolises the unprecedented suffering of the Serbian Army (during the Great Retreat) that managed to rise victoriously like a phoenix from the ashes that World War I, in which Serbia lost one third of its population, had left behind. 5)This song can be interpreted in different ways due to the universal symbolism of ramonda as the beacon of hope for people going through tough times (wars, natural disasters, disease, psychological problems, heartbreaks, etc.). According to my interpretation of the lyrics, the repetition of the line in which the lyric subject wonders where all the ramondas have disappeared represents the feeling of powerlessness and despair. However, the outro of the song reminds us that hope springs eternal. Despite all the atrocities occurring in the world, it is in human nature to never lose hope. 6) Also, there's something magical and unexplainable about the melody of this song. It embodies the spirit of the Serbian people from the 18th, the 19th and the 20th century, the spirit that Stevan Stojanović Mokranjac, the most important composer of Serbian romanticism, wove into his music. This particular atmosphere of the melody can be sensed strongly only by listening to a piano cover. It’s just fascinating.
„I have no peace, I have no dreams, The night won’t let the day come. It’s tough for those who are alone. Everything is so quiet, as if underwater. I’m screaming but it doesn’t come through. There’s a white glow beyond the hills, I can’t seem to see the end. This is a path for the wounded. And there’s no one to guide me To the bright star of the morning. The world is burning, every single flower. Where did the lilac ramondas disappear? Ramonda Lilac ramonda … And there’s no one to guide me Because all of the stars are asleep. The prayers aren’t helping either Where did the lilac ramondas disappear? Ramonda Lilac ramonda … From the ashes a single lilac ramonda is rising…” Ramonda is a flower that was dirst discovered in Serbia, and one of the things that makes it so special is the fact that a fully dead ramonda can be saved with a single drop of water - that’s how sensitive of a flower it is. This characteristic of ramonda has made it a very special symbol for the Serbian people, kind of like a Serbian Phoenix - symbol of hope and rebirth. It also has a huge historical significance, it is a symbol of the continuous suffering of the Serbian people throughout the centuries, all the way to the horrible hardships we are dealing with right now. Hope this helped!
Congrats to teya and congratulations and well done and many beautiful returns of your live final performance if she won the final performance and I really like the song and I hope it’s a party boper disco hit and good luck and I’m so pleased and really happy for teya and I really like the song and it’s a lullaby soft Ballard song I really love it and it keeps us calm and I really love it from geoff and I would like to give my special hugs to teya and I like to meet her sometime
Ramonda I don't have, I don't have, I don't have I have no peace, I have no dream Night won't let the day come Hard is the lot of one who is alone As if under water, everything is silent I scream, but it's not heard Beyond the mountains, a white glow I can't see the end This is a path for the wounded And there's no one to lead me To the bright star of the morning (Venus) The world burns, every flower Where have the lilac ramondas vanished Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda And there's no one to lead me For all the stars have fallen asleep Prayers don’t help either Where have the lilac ramondas vanished Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Rises from the ashes A lilac ramonda
Ramonda Serbica - an endemic type of flower that grows only in Serbia. It is a symbol of survival. One drop of water is enough to revive a completely dry and dead flower. Serbian phoenix is alternative name of the Ramonda serbica.
What an amazing song is so beatiful and amazing . This song is so beatiful and emotional, i remember when Serbia won Eurovision song contest for the 1st time in 2007 with Marija Seferovic and her song Molitva I think Serbia could win Eurovision song contest for the 2nd time this year with Teya Dora and her song Ramonda
Ramonda is a Fenix Flower that is a symbol of Serbian nation after WWI when 1/3rd of Serbs died. The entire nation fled to Greece over the Albanian mountains and when Serbs got back to the ront in Bulgaria people were screaming "The Dead are back!". Ramonda is endemic speaces of this flower and the song can be understud as overcoming ones depression, and problems, but also it represents Serbian history full of strugles and battles over centuries under many ocupations. Otomans, Austrians, Hungarians, Germans, Americans.
@@esc.norway The song is a metaphore for crossing the Prokletije mountains. The rocks are Island of Corfu and the sea is where dead soldiers were burried. Ramonda is metaphor for Serbs. The song style is serbian grief song (tužbalica). And the flower at the and is a baby that she sings to while or the man in her family are dead and she grieves them.
Ramonda 💜🪻 is a purple flower that is very rare in Serbia and that flower is a symbol of hope. Lyrics at the and "It rises from the ashes One purple Ramonda "
The whole song is about a rare flower that grows in the Balkans and is called "Natalia's Ramonda", a name given by the name of the wife of a Serbian king, a flower that can survive almost anything and always come back to life. This miraculous flower was discovered in 1884, when it was found by the court physician of King Milan Obrenović, Dr. Sava Petrović. He is also called the Serbian Fenix.
Ramonda Serbica is a flower that grows only in Serbia and in very harsh conditions, in rocks on high mountains, although it is very delicate. A completely dried plant, with just one drop of water, can come back to life. It is also known as the phoenix flower because it is practically indestructible (that's the last verse of her poem: she rises from the ashes, one lilac Ramonda). It symbolizes the Serbian people in World War I, when Serbia was destroyed and the army was driven to Greece through the harsh mountains of Albania, where many died. When they recovered in Greece with the help of their allies, they broke through the Thessaloniki front, returned to Serbia and liberated the country. Today, during November, in honor of Victory Day (November 11, 1918) in World War I, it is worn on the lapels of clothes. The song is full of symbolism for our people.
The song also has historical meaning Liliac Ramonda is al the simbol of the winning in Great war. Kingdom of Serbia lost 1/3 of its male population in world war one, and had suffered a lot.
The song 🎵 & flower 🌸🌸🌸 metaphorically describes suffering of Serbian nation. They suffered 5 centuries under Turkish occupation and managed to survive and save their identity. In WW1 1/3 of the population was murdered by Bulgarian, German and Austrian army...and they didn't announce a capitulation but the nation, led by the king went in an exile via hostile Albanian mountains. After all the suffering between 1914-1918, they returned back victorious and liberated all southern Slavic nations (Serbs, Croats, Slovenians, Macedonians) and created a South Slavic land (Yugoslavia). Another genocide happened during WW2, more than 1 million Serbian people were brutally murdered in genocide, especially in the Jasenovac concentration camp 😪😪😪 Ramonda flower 🌸🌸🌸 symbolically describes Serbian nation ... they love freedom and will resist any Hegemon 🕊✌️ 🕊
Ramonda is an endemic flower 🌸 that symbolizes ascension, rebirth, in this song all countries that suffered and rose again after suffering are recognized.
This song is complete! Voice, vocals, styling, visual effects to match, text, message, emotion, dynamics, holds attention, has story and drama... What else is needed to win?
The chorus, with its repeated refrain of "Lila ramonda," serves as a symbolic anchor in the song. The lila ramonda flower, known for its resilience and ability to bloom even in harsh conditions, represents hope and renewal amidst darkness and despair. The narrator's repeated question of "Gde su nestale lila ramonde?" (Where have the lila ramondas disappeared?) reflects their search for answers and guidance in a world that feels devoid of light and comfort.
Yup, Ramonda is that flower as you mentioned, like phoenix flower. Ramonda is used as a symbol of remembrance of our fallen in WW1. Serbia lost than one third of population or 60% of male population. At one point also thousands of soldiers died pulling back through Albania, freezing in very cold winter. Many were wounded, exhausted. Plus they had to deal with local gangs. You'll never be forget. ❤
This plant is also called flower-phoenix because during the dry period it dries out, and with the first rain it "revives" and blooms in all its glory. They say, where other plants have long since given up, Natalia's ramonda "flourishes in defiance." A flower of purple petals sung in the verses of the song is a symbol of Armistice Day in the First World War. Natalia's ramonda in Serbia is protected by law as a "strictly protected species
The title of this song references a flower known by its latin name "Ramonda serbica", an endemic species that only grows in serbia, which is known for its ability to completely dry out and still revive once it gets water, a flower that can straight up come back from undead. Very similar to Ramonda Serbica is Natalie's Ramonda, flower of the same genus, In Serbia it's known as "Natalijina ramonda" named after the XIX century Serbian queen Natalija Obrenović and it's used as a symbol of peace after WWI. In Serbia, to mark this day we wear a phoenix flower - Natalie's Ramonda, capable of resurrection, just as Serbia after WWI, in which it lost almost 1/3 of people. 🌸🌸🌸
"THERE IS ONE THAT UNITES US ALL: No matter where you're from, tough times don't define you. It's about rising strong, shining bright, and never giving up, no matter what life throws your way, if one little flower LILA RAMONDA HAS THAT POWER, YOU HAVE IT TOO! "

The last line ,,dize se iz pepela jedna lila ramonda" she says there like ,,rising from the ashes, one lila ramonda" and it is for me the most beutyfull moment
This one reminds me something like OST-theme from "The Last of Us" or another same game (show). Especially at the beginning section)
Congratulation, Serbia. My 5th place so far
Aaah, thanks for sharing your association, interesting! Happy to hear your placement too, thanks for checking in
A brutally good song, and her voice is abnormally good!
Thank you for sharing your opinion, appreciate it!
Thank you girls for such a cute reaction ❤
Our pleasure
This song symbolizes peace and is anti war. I think many countries/people can resonate with it... That's why it will do well.
Agreed!
It's just amazing! So powerful and emotional ❤
Thank you for sharing your opinion, appreciate it!
Ramonda is a lilac flower that can die and come back to life if it is watered. Ramonda is a national flower(fenix flower), but only with symbolic meaning here.. This is a kind of lullaby for a lonely and depressed person, spending nights in her black thoughts with no sleeping, with no one to hear her.. And every morning she still finds a reason to try again and give a chance to new day
In fact, a single drop of water is enough to bring the plant back to life! Magical.
ok , ali ZNACENJE PESME je u ZADNJEM STIHU.....IZASLA IZ PEPELA JEDNA LILA RAMONDA....govori o stradanju u Prvom Sv Ratu...i Nastavku zivota posle toga...Pozdrav Iz Beograda
Hvala na divnim komentarima, ali volela bih da objasnim pravo znacenje pesme zbog izuzetne vaznosti dogadjaja kome je posvecena. Tokom Prvog svetskog rata, nakon dve velike pobede srpske vojske protiv austrougarske, srpska vojska je ipak pretrpela velike gubitke, i morala da se povuce pred najezdom mnogo brojnijeg i jaceg neprijatelja. Jedini izlaz je bio odlazak u saveznicku Grcku, preko Albanije. Povlacenje je pocelo u kasnu jesen i nastavilo se i u toku zime, po jakoj hladnoci, i po veoma divljem i nepristupacnom terenu. Zajedno sa vojskom krenuli si i civili: zena, deca i starci....desetine hiljada njih, na put dalek preko 1000 km. U Grcku su stigli sa velikim gubicima i brojem umrlih usput. Veliki broj njih je umro u samoj Grckoj, gde su njihova tela bacana u more, jer ih je bilo nemoguce sve sahraniti. Nakon oporavka i pomoci saveznika, srpska vojska se krajem 1915.godine vratila na ratiste, nastavila da se bori protiv neprijatelja, i na kraju odnela pobedu.Srpski Narod koji je proveo godine u izbeglistvu je konacno mogao da se 1918.godine vrati u Srbiju i iznova izgradi zemlju za koju je Austrougarska tvrdila da je izbrisana sa lica zemlje. Ramonda je postala simbol ovog dogadjaja jer je cvet koji moze da prezivi najgore uslove, i opet procveta , bas kao i srpski narod. Izvinjavam se na ovom duzem objasnjenju, ali smatrala sam svojom duznoscu da objasnim da je pesma " Ramonda" za nas vise od pesme, i da iskazem divljenje Teja Dori za sve sto je uradila, i za poruku koju je poslala. Sigurna sam da je medju stradalima bilo i njenih predaka koji bi bili ponosni na nju. Veliki pozdrav i prijateljske i herojske Srbije!
@@blanka785 Lepo objašnjeno! Reći da je simbol “primirja” nije fer prema žrtvama koje su se borile za tu pobedu, i prema njihovim porodicama koje su se posle borile za oporavak nakon što je izgubljena jedna trećina kompletnog stanovništva. Ramonda je simbol pobede i ponovnog rođenja, simbol neodustajanja našeg naroda posle neverovatnih poraza, simbol nade.
[Verse 1]
There's no rest, no rest for me
I am restless, I cannot sleep
The night won't give way to dawn
Doomed is the one who is alone.
[Verse 2]
It's as if underwater silence reigns
I'm screaming, but you can't hear my pain
Beyond the mountains the gleam is white
Yet there's no end in sight
This is the path for the wounded.
[Pre-chorus]
And there's no one to guide me now
Except Danitsa, the bright morning star
The world's a pyre burning each flower
Where have they disappeared, those lilac ramondas?
[Chorus]
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda.
[Pre-chorus]
And there's no one who would guide me
Because all the stars are sound asleep
Saying prayers is of no avail
Where have they disappeared, those lilac ramondas?
[Chorus, break]
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda.
[Chorus]
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda.
[Outro]
From the ashes rises up
a single lilac ramonda.
1) Zvezda Danica, pronounced as Danitsa/Danitza, is a feminine name personifying the morning star/Venus in Slavic mythology; it can be found in Serbian lyric poetry.
2) In this context, lilac is a pale purple colour, not a type of flower.
3) The island at the beginning of the video could be a reference to the Greek island of Vido and the surrounding sea in which over 5,000 Serbian soldiers were buried during World War I. A Serbian poet Milutin Bojić dedicated his poem 'Plava grobnica' (The Blue Tomb) to these soldiers and this 'blue tomb' is actually the sea around Vido. In this poem, Bojić expressed the tragic fate of Serbia, whose army had passed through the snow-covered mountains of Albania to get to the Greek islands of Corfu and Vido, where they found refuge and shelter.
4) The title of this song references a flower called 'Ramonda serbica' in Latin, a species endemic to Serbia. The mountain called Rtanj is the home to this flower which was discovered in 1874 by a famous Serbian botanist Josif Pančić. Being a living fossil from the Tertiary period, it is capable of surviving extremely harsh conditions. Even if it is completely withered, just a few drops of water can revive it. Natalie's ramonda (natalijina ramonda), the flower of the same genus, is very similar to 'Ramonda serbica'. It was named after Queen of Serbia Natalija Obrenović, and it is worn as an emblem on Armistice Day in Serbia. This flower, also known as the 'phoenix flower', symbolises the unprecedented suffering of the Serbian Army (during the Great Retreat) that managed to rise victoriously like a phoenix from the ashes that World War I, in which Serbia lost one third of its population, had left behind.
5)This song can be interpreted in different ways due to the universal symbolism of ramonda as the beacon of hope for people going through tough times (wars, natural disasters, disease, psychological problems, heartbreaks, etc.). According to my interpretation of the lyrics, the repetition of the line in which the lyric subject wonders where all the ramondas have disappeared represents the feeling of powerlessness and despair. However, the outro of the song reminds us that hope springs eternal. Despite all the atrocities occurring in the world, it is in human nature to never lose hope.
6) Also, there's something magical and unexplainable about the melody of this song. It embodies the spirit of the Serbian people from the 18th, the 19th and the 20th century, the spirit that Stevan Stojanović Mokranjac, the most important composer of Serbian romanticism, wove into his music. This particular atmosphere of the melody can be sensed strongly only by listening to a piano cover. It’s just fascinating.
So emotional, so good....goosebumps!!! ❤❤❤❤
Thanks for your reaction!
„I have no peace, I have no dreams,
The night won’t let the day come.
It’s tough for those who are alone.
Everything is so quiet, as if underwater.
I’m screaming but it doesn’t come through.
There’s a white glow beyond the hills,
I can’t seem to see the end.
This is a path for the wounded.
And there’s no one to guide me
To the bright star of the morning.
The world is burning,
every single flower.
Where did the lilac ramondas disappear?
Ramonda
Lilac ramonda
…
And there’s no one to guide me
Because all of the stars are asleep.
The prayers aren’t helping either
Where did the lilac ramondas disappear?
Ramonda
Lilac ramonda
…
From the ashes
a single lilac ramonda is rising…”
Ramonda is a flower that was dirst discovered in Serbia, and one of the things that makes it so special is the fact that a fully dead ramonda can be saved with a single drop of water - that’s how sensitive of a flower it is. This characteristic of ramonda has made it a very special symbol for the Serbian people, kind of like a Serbian Phoenix - symbol of hope and rebirth. It also has a huge historical significance, it is a symbol of the continuous suffering of the Serbian people throughout the centuries, all the way to the horrible hardships we are dealing with right now. Hope this helped!
Thank you so much for sharing
Congrats to teya and congratulations and well done and many beautiful returns of your live final performance if she won the final performance and I really like the song and I hope it’s a party boper disco hit and good luck and I’m so pleased and really happy for teya and I really like the song and it’s a lullaby soft Ballard song I really love it and it keeps us calm and I really love it from geoff and I would like to give my special hugs to teya and I like to meet her sometime
Ramonda
I don't have, I don't have, I don't have
I have no peace, I have no dream
Night won't let the day come
Hard is the lot of one who is alone
As if under water, everything is silent
I scream, but it's not heard
Beyond the mountains, a white glow
I can't see the end
This is a path for the wounded
And there's no one to lead me
To the bright star of the morning (Venus)
The world burns, every flower
Where have the lilac ramondas vanished
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
And there's no one to lead me
For all the stars have fallen asleep
Prayers don’t help either
Where have the lilac ramondas vanished
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Ramonda
Lilac ramonda
Lilac ramonda

Rises from the ashes

Ramonda Serbica - an endemic type of flower that grows only in Serbia. It is a symbol of survival. One drop of water is enough to revive a completely dry and dead flower. Serbian phoenix is alternative name of the Ramonda serbica.
Thank you for sharing, appreciate it!
What an amazing song is so beatiful and amazing . This song is so beatiful and emotional, i remember when Serbia won Eurovision song contest for the 1st time in 2007 with Marija Seferovic and her song Molitva

Ramonda is a Fenix Flower that is a symbol of Serbian nation after WWI when 1/3rd of Serbs died. The entire nation fled to Greece over the Albanian mountains and when Serbs got back to the ront in Bulgaria people were screaming "The Dead are back!". Ramonda is endemic speaces of this flower and the song can be understud as overcoming ones depression, and problems, but also it represents Serbian history full of strugles and battles over centuries under many ocupations. Otomans, Austrians, Hungarians, Germans, Americans.
Thank you for enlightening us
@@esc.norway The song is a metaphore for crossing the Prokletije mountains. The rocks are Island of Corfu and the sea is where dead soldiers were burried. Ramonda is metaphor for Serbs. The song style is serbian grief song (tužbalica). And the flower at the and is a baby that she sings to while or the man in her family are dead and she grieves them.
Ramonda 💜🪻 is a purple flower that is very rare in Serbia and that flower is a symbol of hope.
Lyrics at the and "It rises from the ashes One purple Ramonda "

This song will grow everyone even more, I didn‘t like the song at the beginning and now I love it :) she will be in the top 5 in the final for sure💜
Thank you for sharing your opinion, appreciate it!
The whole song is about a rare flower that grows in the Balkans and is called "Natalia's Ramonda", a name given by the name of the wife of a Serbian king, a flower that can survive almost anything and always come back to life. This miraculous flower was discovered in 1884, when it was found by the court physician of King Milan Obrenović, Dr. Sava Petrović. He is also called the Serbian Fenix.
Not Balkan, only Serbia.
Hvala na emotivnoj reakciji. Poljubac za obe dame. Ljubav iz Srbije 🇷🇸❤️💜🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Ramonda Serbica is a flower that grows only in Serbia and in very harsh conditions, in rocks on high mountains, although it is very delicate. A completely dried plant, with just one drop of water, can come back to life. It is also known as the phoenix flower because it is practically indestructible (that's the last verse of her poem: she rises from the ashes, one lilac Ramonda). It symbolizes the Serbian people in World War I, when Serbia was destroyed and the army was driven to Greece through the harsh mountains of Albania, where many died. When they recovered in Greece with the help of their allies, they broke through the Thessaloniki front, returned to Serbia and liberated the country. Today, during November, in honor of Victory Day (November 11, 1918) in World War I, it is worn on the lapels of clothes. The song is full of symbolism for our people.

Love the song. We don't stand a chance to win, or something, but on a national level - we were saved by the bell.
Thank you for sharing, appreciate it!
The song also has historical meaning Liliac Ramonda is al the simbol of the winning in Great war. Kingdom of Serbia lost 1/3 of its male population in world war one, and had suffered a lot.
Thank you for enlightening us!
The song 🎵 & flower 🌸🌸🌸 metaphorically describes suffering of Serbian nation.
They suffered 5 centuries under Turkish occupation and managed to survive and save their identity.
In WW1 1/3 of the population was murdered by Bulgarian, German and Austrian army...and they didn't announce a capitulation but the nation, led by the king went in an exile via hostile Albanian mountains. After all the suffering between 1914-1918, they returned back victorious and liberated all southern Slavic nations (Serbs, Croats, Slovenians, Macedonians) and created a South Slavic land (Yugoslavia).
Another genocide happened during WW2, more than 1 million Serbian people were brutally murdered in genocide, especially in the Jasenovac concentration camp 😪😪😪
Ramonda flower 🌸🌸🌸 symbolically describes Serbian nation ... they love freedom and will resist any Hegemon
🕊✌️ 🕊
You can tell it is a really good song if I listen to it from 8am to 5:30pm with just 1 song
👏👏🇷🇸
Ramonda is an endemic flower 🌸 that symbolizes ascension, rebirth, in this song all countries that suffered and rose again after suffering are recognized.
Thank you for enlightening us!

Winner 1
The chorus, with its repeated refrain of "Lila ramonda," serves as a symbolic anchor in the song. The lila ramonda flower, known for its resilience and ability to bloom even in harsh conditions, represents hope and renewal amidst darkness and despair. The narrator's repeated question of "Gde su nestale lila ramonde?" (Where have the lila ramondas disappeared?) reflects their search for answers and guidance in a world that feels devoid of light and comfort.
Thank you for sharing

Yup, Ramonda is that flower as you mentioned, like phoenix flower. Ramonda is used as a symbol of remembrance of our fallen in WW1. Serbia lost than one third of population or 60% of male population. At one point also thousands of soldiers died pulling back through Albania, freezing in very cold winter. Many were wounded, exhausted. Plus they had to deal with local gangs. You'll never be forget. ❤

Well, I think that in this years competition in Serbia was tougher to choose then maybe in the whole Eurovision contest itself?
This plant is also called flower-phoenix because during the dry period it dries out, and with the first rain it "revives" and blooms in all its glory. They say, where other plants have long since given up, Natalia's ramonda "flourishes in defiance." A flower of purple petals sung in the verses of the song is a symbol of Armistice Day in the First World War. Natalia's ramonda in Serbia is protected by law as a "strictly protected species
Thank you for enlightening us!
Slatke ste obadvije🙂
The title of this song references a flower known by its latin name "Ramonda serbica", an endemic species that only grows in serbia, which is known for its ability to completely dry out and still revive once it gets water, a flower that can straight up come back from undead. Very similar to Ramonda Serbica is Natalie's Ramonda, flower of the same genus, In Serbia it's known as "Natalijina ramonda" named after the XIX century Serbian queen Natalija Obrenović and it's used as a symbol of peace after WWI. In Serbia, to mark this day we wear a phoenix flower - Natalie's Ramonda, capable of resurrection, just as Serbia after WWI, in which it lost almost 1/3 of people. 🌸🌸🌸
Thank you for sharing, appreciate it!
Yep it reminds me of Billie too!
How so beautiful
TEYA DORA peva i pesmu "DŽANUM" koja je postala internacionalna (prevedena na mnogo jezika).
"THERE IS ONE THAT UNITES US ALL: No matter where you're from, tough times don't define you. It's about rising strong, shining bright, and never giving up, no matter what life throws your way, if one little flower LILA RAMONDA HAS THAT POWER, YOU HAVE IT TOO! "
