Rosna Livada - Balkan Slavic Song feat. July Vitraniuk
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- Arrangement and video by Farya Faraji, vocals by July Vitraniuk. Many thanks to Christophe Chapleau and Barbara for heping out with the video. This is a song present in at least three of the Balkan's Slavic-speaking cultures: Serbs, Bosnians and Croats. The lyrics used here are from the Bosnian and Serbian versions. There are multiple versions of the song with different lyrics, even time signatures, but they tend to share lyrical similarities about a dewy meadow, and a girl stringing pearls in it. The Bosnian version of the lyrics I decided to use makes reference to tyrants who "took the girl's beloved," and given the historical and cultural context of this phrase and song, the interpretation many have is that it is an implicit reference to the Ottomans; representing the suffering felt by natives of the Balkans at the hand of imperial domination under said empire.
Musically, I wanted this rendition to reflect native, historical Balkanic musical practices from before its more modern usage of Western musical vocabulary, the kind of sound encapsulated by bands such as Kulin Ban, who give an insight into the sound of the Balkans from the 1500's to the 1800's. I collaborated with the talented July Vitraniuk for the lyrics; as a Ukrainian singer, she was able to utilise the recognisable "White Voice," a sharp, bright vocal quality female vocalists traditionally use in Slavic music, especially the regions of the Balkans and Eastern Europe.
The vocals use typical Balkan polyphony which occurs in the form of drone harmonisation: some of the voices sing the full melody whilst others hold the same notes repeatedly, usually the tonic, subtonic, and perfect intervals like the fifth, which I've used here.
The instrumentation consists of drums and a historical approximation of a Saz-like instrument, the kind used prominently by Balkaners up to the 1800's, which would give rise to instruments like the Šargija or Albanian Çifteli. The end section also features a kaval flute, the most widely used flute in the Balkans. The first section is in duple metre, a form of the song commonly heard in Bosnia and Croatia, whilst the latter part at the end uses a seven-beat metre, commonly heard in the Serbian versions of the song.
Lyrics in Bosnian and Serbian:
Rosna livada trava zelena
Rosna livada, aman, aman,
Trava zelena
Na njoj djevojka biser nizala
Biser nizala, aman, aman,
Suze ronila
Zulumcari joj dragog odveli
Zulumcari joj aman, aman,
Dragog odveli
Biser nizala, dragog cekala
Dragog cekala aman, aman,
Od tuge zaspala
Rosna livada, bregom njihаlа
Tu mi devojka stado čuvala,
Stado čuvala, *džanum, biser nizala
Momče gledalo, sproću livade,
čuješ devojko, džanum, čuješ lepojko
Tvoje je lice jarko sunašce, а ја sam junak,
džanum, kraj sunca oblak
Čuješ devojko, čuješ lepojko, tvoje su oči,
džanum, morske trnjine.
A ја sam junak, s mora trgovac,
Jа da ih kupim, džanum, ја da ih ljubim.
English translation:
Dew-covered meadow, green grass
Dew-covered meadow, *aman aman
Green grass
In that place a girl stringed pearls
She strings pearls, aman, aman
She shed tears
Tyrants took her beloved away
Tyrants took him away from her, aman, aman
They took her beloved one
She stringed pearls, waited for her beloved one
Waited for her beloved one, aman, aman
And the sadness put her to sleep
A meadow full of dew,
My dear, swayed on a hill.
There a maiden was herding a flock of sheep,
my dear, putting pearls on strings.
A young lad was watching from the other side of the meadow,
hear me girl, my dear, hear me beauty.
Your face is the bright sun, and I am a hero,
my dear, a cloud next to the sun.
Hear me girl, hear me beauty, your eyes,
my dear, are sea blackthorns.
And I am a hero, a merchant from the sea, I want to buy them,
my dear, I want to kiss them.
*Note the terms "džanum" and "aman." The former is a Persian term, meaning "my dear/my love (literally my life),the latter is an Arabic term meaning something broadly like "God help us," used to mark wonder, but in terms of traditions like Arabic, Turkish, Iranian and Balkanic music, both "džanum" and "aman" are more or less stock terms used to fill in the blanks in lyrics.
DISCLAIMER:
Whilst I never care about total historical accuracy in terms of costumes and always settle on a compromise of “budget/generally fits the era/looks cool”, the Balkaner wearing a Fez is accurate but I have to write this otherwise all the comments will be about the Fez lol.
“Why is the Balkaner wearing a Fez, the Fez is Turkish.”
Not uniquely, no. Starting from the late 19th century, it began being more and more associated with Turks and Islam uniquely. Prior to this, however, the Fez was a common headress across the Balkans, at least in regions like Greece, Serbia and Bulgaria, and was worn by Christians and Muslims alike without any special association towards Islam. In fact, the origin of the Fez isn’t known, and a commonly accepted origin theory is the Balkans. Greek freedom fighters and Serbian hajduks wore the fez while killing their Ottoman foes and giving their lives to fight the Turks. Look for visual depictions of Greek klephts, Hajduk Veljko, Dimitrios Makris, or even post Ottoman independence Balkaners like Stevan Pereović Knićanin. Alexander Maxwell’s “Patriots against Fashion” documents all of that pretty well.

Is the Bosnian/Serbian used modern or the version used during the period of Ottoman rule (1400 to mid 1800)? I know you've done similarly accurate songs with medieval French and classical Latin so I just wanted to know?
@@Bax2124 I’m not sure the song itself is from the period of Ottoman rule. But I based my pronunciation on modern singers so the pronunciation has to be modern
@@faryafaraji Oh ok, that's fine. Thanks for the clarification 👍🏼
But I want to write about the Fez! But not to complain, since I was already familiar with the historical context (and also think Fezzes are neat). Moreover, I just want to briefly think about Fez types. Back in 2021, outlets were talking about one of the last fez makers in Cairo, Nasser Abd El-Baset, where every fez is custom-made and fitted to the client's head, with copper molds used for various types of fezzes. Since then, I had always wondered what specific types of fezzes were popular in the Balkans, and my own native Serbia, where many of our popular figures in the period wore fezzes. Is there a place in Belgrade where you can still get a custom-fitted fez in the style of those of the time? Tried to look into it, and I don't recall finding it, at least none explicitly stating so. Would be nice to have one someday, as a remembrance of the cultural legacy we inherited from the Ottomans that many try to overlook or erase today (despite it being visible even in some of our words).
Discovered your videos about a week ago with your excellent video on Greek music and its 'oriental' nature, and have been loving all of them, and even my parents enjoy them after sharing them. My dad, who is from Western Serbia, is incredibly impressed by your Serbian and related arrangements, and has inspired some discussions on the current state of folk music in Serbia today (he prefers the slower style of his part of the country). Keep up the great work!
I thought the Fez came from North Africa. I remember sources saying that the Fez originated as the Tarboush from Morocco but I never knew the hat could be from the Balkans.
Greetings from Greece to my Serbian brothers
Greetings to the Greek brothers from Serbia
🇷🇸🇬🇷
Brothers 🇷🇸🇬🇷☦️💪🤝
How are they your brothers are you sllav too or are they greek?
@@theone5656 Serbs and Greeks are Orthodox brothers in Christ. Spiritual brotherhood in Christ is stronger than blood brotherhood. We received Orthodoxy and Byzantine culture from our Greek brothers, which we accepted as our own. A Serbian noblewoman was the mother of the last Roman emperor (Greek by birth) in Constantinople, and the Greek princesses were Serbian queens. We fought together against the same enemies for centuries. And i know that you are Albanian and you cant understand that

The Balkans are quite musically underrated (Greek [both modern & ancient] music being the exception) as they combine several different Eurasian cultures; those being Turkish, South slavic and Greek as mentioned before. You can even see it with the collapse of Yugoslavia with turbofolk in Serbia 🇷🇸
Greek music is also underrated.
@@OrthoKarter Greek Macedonian, Pontian and Thracian music is just too OP for the western world lol
@@OrthoKarterDepends; if it's Hellenistic, pagan Greek music, then no but if it were medieval, Christian chants then yea, you'd be correct.

Beautiful music. Persian-Middle Eastern influences are strong in in this song, as they are in many aspects of life in the Balkans (via Ottoman Empire long rule in south-east Europe). I would have bet that bagpipes were Bulgarian/Macedonian, but most likely they came from Persia; were they from Xerxe's time or much later through the Turkish-Ottoman rule is for historians to say.
@@HK-pp9ig bagpips is a instrument with roots in the Persian Gulf in the south of Iran was either invented by people before the Iranians, such as the Assyrians, Babylonians and Elamites, who later became associated with the Iranians, or the Iranians invented it.
Thanks. Remember that we can love each other better when we are in our oune countryes.

From a film standpoint: I loved the choice of blurring/hiding the face of the Janissary. Gave him somewhat of a mysterious, and also terrifying vibe to him.
Maybe he is played by Farya himself ... just a intuition.
Hmmmmm either that or mitosis. You could never know.@@Gutvald
It could also symbolise how the janiseries were men without identities. Empty man who didn't knew who they were

@@Skanderbeg99After Dardania it was Roman empire etc.
Serbs also have Dardans/Illiric genes, proto Balkan, even more than Slavic genes.
And Serbs make country, history and culture on Kosovo, not Albanians.
It is funny even to compare that.
I'm so sorry for Albanian situation there. However, by any logic and international law, it belongs to Serbs.
Dardania, for which we heard recently, didn't make any significance there, culturaly or any other way.
It is apsurde to call on Dardania, it doesn't make any sense.

If there were ever a rendition of a song that made me consider just how strongly of a shared cultural space we have in the Balkans, it's this one. And the storyline of the rogue janissary that comes to fight against the folk of where he's originally from strikes a chord with most Balkaners. I tend to relate it to this vintage ass movie that's really popular over here called ,,Време разделно" where a janissary returns to convert his home village in the Rhodopes to Islam. Quite a tear-jerker and this song and rendition remind me most of that 🥲

Perhaps the best cinematography you've made so far. How a Hajduk had a whole character arc in 5 minutes is beyond me but I congratulate you on it, ¡adelante y felicitaciones!
what's a "Hajduk" ?
@@Gutvald it’s something similar to bandits and freedom fighter
They are found primarily in Europe
Their goal to expel the conquers from their lands
Those conquers
We’re mostly if not always
Hapsburg Austrians
Or Ottoman Turks
But most of the time their enemies were the Ottomans
It’s even theorized that the word Hajduk comes from the Turkish word haidut which means bandit
Another theory is it comes the Hungarian word hajtó
In short they were something akin to a Balkan Robin Hood
Ok thanks for your response.@@FaustusPasha
@@FaustusPashaHajduks are only Serbs not muslims, croats or Bulgarians,who fight against Ottoman ocupation, Hajduks belog only to Serbia not to others from Balkan, you other little nation dont even fight against ocupation, mislim from Bosnia are converted Serbs, Croatia was be under Hungary 1000 years without one battle for freedom..and yes they found primarly in Serbia dont lie and steal our history, you muslims from Bosnia dont have anything with Hajduks you are convertites you step aside with Turks Hajduks are fight against Turks and only Turks not like you say with Austrians
@@Gutvaldmislim want to take little Serbian glory...
Pozdrav za sve Slovene i Slavene sirom svijeta iz Bosne i Hercegovina
Greetings from Serbia; I haven't heard you speak Serbian/Bosnian but at least in song form, your pronunciation is on point.
Bosnian
Bosnian hahahah

У него шедевры во вчех ичполнениях

It's a Bosniak song...
@@benbenaj3378 Who are Bosniaks?
@@marijacvetkovic1965 not vlachs as so called "serbs" of Bosnia are.
@@benbenaj3378 les bosniaques musulmans étaient membre de l’empire ottoman et de faisait partie de leur armée. Zulum veut dire pillages les turcs ne faisait pas de zulum contre les bosniaques musulmans. La nation bosniaques n’existait avant pas avant la guerre civile des années 90! Il n’y avait que des religions avant.Le rois de bosnie tvrtko avait aussi le titre de roi des serbes. Les bosniaques les monténégrin avant faisait partie de se qu’ont appelé les peuples serbes. Choses qui a changé avec la guerre des années 90 et la volonté de faire une différence est née à se moment !
@@benbenaj3378 Бошњакс ?
"Твртко краљ СрБљем и Босне и Приморја и Западних страна "( Где су ти ти Бошњаци ?)
Како ти се звао деда пре него што је примио ислам ?
Милорад или Ратко ? Ко си ти ?
Србин исламске вероисповести?
Како вас је Тито декларисао од 1973?
Како сте се прозвали 28.9.1993.
Зашто Алија Изетбеговић никад није чуо за те "Бошњаке"? него само за "муслимански народ".
Ако си Бошњак , Зашто не причаш бошњачки него босански ?
Питај тату који је језик учио у школи.
Иди нађи родослов на тавану ,и ти и 99% вас "Бошњака " видећете да сте Тврткови потомци и бана Матеје Нинослава који своје поданике 1240. назива три пута "СрбЉима".
Не кажите више себе ...а ни нас...постали сте одвратни.
Чак и ова песма није оргинал, мелодија јесте.
Поздрави от България ! БАЛКАНИТЕ ЕДНО ДА СА!
АНАТЕМА НА ВРАГОВЕТЕ НИ!
АМИН!!!

I’ve been listening to a bit of orthodox monks chanting and the vibe of certain parts of this composition are reminiscent of the style, and create the same space.
Неймовірне виконання! Просто ледженд!
You always do great work! Greetings, my friend. 🇹🇷

Lepi pozdrav sa balkana! ❤
I listen to farya’s roman music and I decided this time to give something else a chance…what have I been missing on!!!!???
Ok this was so authentic I am crying now very unexpectedly
Beautiful song! Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷
Phenomenal as always! I've listened through all of your symphonies by now Farya, and I think it's safe to say that I consider you to be my favourite composer at the moment. I can't wait for you to do Cajdana next. Much love from Serbia!
Farya, you never cease to amaze me. You must never stop your purely amazing work. Regards from a fellow Bulgarian. Поздрав за моите Балкански братя!
Beautiful song, so familiar to my ears even though I don't speak the language... we Balkans share so much common culture it keeps amazing me every time.
Tüm şarkılar Harika ❤
This is wonderful. Thank you Farya.
I don't understand the language, but the music and the cadences in the voice is very emotional, moves youe soul.
The female voice especially reminds me of 'oppaari' a form of music for lament and loss in Tamil, my language from the south of India.
Such female style of singing is typical for Slavic folk songs (like this one is as well) so if you like it, look into them more, you'll probably like them
@@belivuk2526thanks. Yes, I will explore more. It is enchanting.
Farya's channel has been a godsend, opening vistas to so many new cultures in a very accessible manner.
@@jaganshri yeah, his channel is amazing! I hope it keeps growing, he absolutely deserves it
EPIC!
This is amazing😲...
Greetings from România🇷🇴!
Очень красиво! С любовью из России братушкам! 🎉

fantastic as usual! petition for Farya to do an orchestra on Aurellian
Greetings from Ukraine, beautiful language and song❤
I love it a lot! Greetings from Turkiye!
As a Bulgarian I understand everything
I love this song thank you. The Sargija is especially famous with Croats in Posavina region of Bosnia and often paired with the violin. It's also used in Bosnian root music or "Izvorna muzika"
Šargiju sviraju i Srbi i Hrvati u Posavini. Nije čak toliko ni bitno ko je prvi počeo da je svira, to je kulturno nasleđe cijele Posavine. Pjesma zaista ima dušu. Pozdrav iz Srbije, iz Novog Sada, od jednog Modričanina!
Господи, заметь меня, ты и твои помощники прекрасны, как и ваше творчество, которое погружает в любую страну любой эпохи
I'm so glad that you brought this song to light, even to me a Croat that should've heard this already but better later than never. Keep being an absolute delight on youtube bud, can't wait to hear more Balkan stuff from you.
