Here’s a song I wrote and performed in Polish with Late Middle Polish orthography - there is very little distinction between Modern Polish and Late Middle Polish, so any Poles out there likely won’t hear the difference. This time it’s about the glorious King Jan Sobieski and his famed Winged Hussars at the Battle of Vienna. The Holy Roman Empire was under siege at Vienna by the Ottoman Turks, who were close to taking the city until the warriors of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (among others) came to the rescue by storming down Kahlenberg mountain on horseback in their renowned winged armour, lances at the ready. My wife is Polish, so this is in some way dedicated to the legacy of her ancestors. I have spent quite some time living in Poland, learning the language and getting to know the wonderful people. As such, I wanted to show my appreciation to them and my respect for Poland in some way, and this seemed like a nice way to do it. I hope you enjoy! Please do leave a comment (I love reading them!) and subscribe if you’d like to see more. If you want to support me, you could also leave a donation at www.buymeacoffee.com/theskaldicbard. Many thanks! My intention is exclusively to teach history and languages through song. I do not condone, endorse or seek to glorify violence.
On september 12 , 1683 , The Holy League Coalition of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and Holy Roman Empire under glorious king Jan lll Sobieski, Prince Charles V , Duke of Lorraine, Prince Eugene of Savoy and Prince Serban Cantacuzino of Wallachia, defeated the ottomans and their allies under Grand Vizier Merzinfonlu Kara Mustafa Pasha on Kahlenberg hill near Vienna, marking the beggining of the decline of the Ottoman Empire, know as "Oriental Crisis" (1683-1922) . GOTT MIT UNS ! ✝️
As François Dalerac, the French courtier of Polish King Jan III Sobieski, wrote in 1699, “The hussars never halt, they ride their horses at full speed, breaking through everything that’s in front of them.”
He said this after last battle of podhajce in holy league crusade 1684-99, Pope innocent 11 formed a holy league of christians to conquer muslim conquered lands. It had many battles like battle of slankamen, mohac 1687, zenta, batocina and last one was battle of podhajce 1698 Jan died 3 years before this and hussars fought in it too
jaki ogrom pracy wykonali, to po prostu rozkosz...... Jestem Polakiem z krwi, ale nie urodziłem się w ojczyźnie swojej krwi, zostałem od niej wyrwany i naprawdę ucieszyłem się, że mogłem na niej postawić nogę . Twoja piosenka to niezapomniany prezent dla uszu i ducha, dziękuję i życzę sukcesów, jesteś bohaterem 😊❤😊❤😊❤

As if medieval Germanic music wasn't awesome enough, you now bring out the Polish Commonwealth which is literally one of my favorite countries in history.
They were murderers, killed without mercy. From the frankish attack on the frisians, from the saxon wars to the crusades in outremere or balticum, the christians came to murder, rape, pillage and burn. The Nero should have crucified them all, when he had the chance. Would have given the world much peace.
Fantastic work brother, greetings from Brazil. Turks wanted to take Rome and transform Saint Peter's Basilica into a mosque, thankfully God delievered to christianity great generals such as Prince Eugen von Savoy and King Jan III Sobiéski, saviours of the Golden Apple.
As a Pole I expected middle polish and modern polish to be like middle english and modern english (Barely recognizable) but I understand everything, just like you said. Great work, although the rhythm of how you speak is somewhat off but I understand its for the song since polish words can be quite lengthy, still love it. God bless
Thanks a lot! Yeah, it's a bit difficult to get a melody that harmonises perfectly with Polish intonation, but Middle Polish also has those slightly elongated vowels on random letters at times which makes the penultimate-syllable stress a little more difficult too. But thanks!
English’s development is not wholly original, it is a pidgin that resulted from a stalemate for dominance between Olde Anglish and Norman French that then struggled for 450 years to find a grammatical equilibrium and commonly applicable rules. It was making progress, when the printing press came along and slowed that progress WAY down, and has been effectively frozen since sound recordings became common place.
@@VileFemboy Well, first of all it's late 17th Century Polish, and second of all, every single word in the song has been cross referenced with dated text corpora from the time of the Battle of Vienna, so what exactly are you basing that assertion on? Polish is a language that has resisted outside influence remarkably well
As a Ukrainian i expected that it will be very hard to understand this song but surprisingly it was actually easier to understand middle Polish for me then it is to understand modern Polish😄
As a Pole, it sounds truly great! I can easily imagine winged hussars singing this. Your pronunciation makes me smile - I can clearly hear that your're not Polish, but also trying your best to master ż, rz, sz, cz, ci, etc... Huge appreciation!
Very beautiful that you honor your wife's traditions same as our old ancestors who came before us but always remember all who came before us and guided us here and now. We exist because of our ancestors
It's good to see someone honouring their personal connections to different languages/cultures. So many people forget the history all we Europeans share and act as if their own present-time country was the only one of note ever... Whereas in reality, there is so much that shaped us into who we are today and so many things our past has seen that many people are ignorant of. As if all those people were nothing but tales and dead dust - but we should understand them, honour them, remember them. Who are we without those who came before us? Thank you for reminding us with your wonderful music. God bless you and your wife.
As a Czech I can understand aprox. something about 95% of the lyrics! But there is nothing to be surprised, old Czech and old Polish were very similar, more than today, but even today we can understand each other quite well, but back in the days it was much simpler I guess. Btw awesome job with the whole song!
Oh my my, everyone and his aunt are "direct descendant" of either Sobieski, Piast or Jagiellon families unless they are Polish, Poles are only peasant descended xD Seriously speaking - no, you are not, neither of you. Sobieski is quite popular surname in Poland and I personally know one Sobiescy family - not these Sobiescy though.
Cool! My wife is Lithuanian (and Occitan) and Lithuanians were also represented in the hussars. I think around 20 percent? I just find it so interesting that they formed an own commonwealth!
@@ElBattaliador Too bad the Austrian leader betrayed Jan after the battle, he replied Jan's victory letter with a horrible insult. Wounded Poles were denied any treatment, fallen ones bodies treated really bad, no shelter offered by Austrians, Jan's request to get a ship to carry wounded soldiers was denied and 100 years later, they partition Poland. No need to be disrespectful for your enemies for fighting for their glory and their nation.
@@ElBattaliador Honestly, I am a Turk and I really feel bad for Jan. He just comes and saves Austria from getting destroyed and that's the reply of Austrians to Poles after they save their huge ass. Maybe it would have been better for both Poles and Ottomans if they didn't save Austrian's ass in Vienna, who knows?

Scaldic, love your music brother. It touches my soul and feels like it takes me back to another time. I've been listening to nothing but your Christian Byzantine era music while I work out. Brings out the Christian Roman blood flowing through my veins!
Mate, your songs are amazing! Love them! I actually come from a noble polish Daniłowicz Family of the Saś family crest. (my great-grandma lived in a manor before the bloody soviets came, let them roll in their graves) and I actually am a direct descendant of Jan Daniłowicz, the grandpa of King Jan III Sobieski. I'm not entirely sure which of Jan Daniłowicz's sons I am a descendant of, but it still kinda cool to have a king in your family tree)). Niech żyje Król!

@@pattyguy guess after the main threat of the Christian world was defeated, the Christians went back to the time of conflict between Nations once again, guess that is very normal, sometimes the one in the same religion to another’s view, is a bigger threat than the enemy who believed in different religion.

The only two countries (Poland & Spain) which achieved impossible success in human history, one is recovered, defended and defeated the invasion of a “mild” Religion, and another is defeated the Invasion of Red Plague. Poland is the eternal shield of God and spear of Europe.
@@michalzklodzkafr In my opinion, this man is belong to the Red Plague that Polish used to fight with, it is a little bit weird for you to use him as the icon…… Sorry if I offended you.
Однако теперь слава польского оружия гремит в украинских степях, где бойцы ВСУ платят тяжёлую цену за защиту Европы от набегов московитов. Но без вашей помощи нашему народу бы пришлось ещё тяжелее в борьбе против захватчиков...
How you manage to learn this many languages??? I am more amazed to think that these languages are not in common tongue anymore!!! And also I love your music.
My ancestors were there as part of the defenders. My ancestor later lost his life as the HRE took Belgrade for the first time. Another ancestor was the Consort to the Queen of Poland who was a Hapsburg.
Very nice! I'd just like to remark that before the 19th century most Poles pronounced the Ł as an L in Long, not as the "W" as in Water, as it often sound today. Back then only peasants spoke like that, and Winged Hussars were all nobility. They definetly spoke the Ł with their tongue.
As a Pole I can say it's really nicely done, sometimes your tonation feels off and there are a few moments, in which grammar also does so. Though I'm seriously impressed by how well can a foreigner use Polish, because it's not often seen. You've got my respect.
There are many Polish immigrants in the British Isles, so for British or Irish, especially when being Catholic, it's relatively easy to learn Polish when having Polish friends.
I don’t know if you do requests but I would love to hear a song in welsh (or any of the Celtic languages) about the crusades or something of that nature, keep up the good work!!
@@SkaldBard What about eastern Indo-European languages like Persian and Sanskrit? There aren't that many Christian songs in them, they could use a few more!
It's understandable, considering that Polish was more similar to Proto-Slavic in 17th century. But I am as Polish very shocked how middle-Polish is similar to modern-Polish
Русские тоже могут прочитать текст песни. Если немного постараться. Самый близкий народ для русских по языку и по духу. Жаль, что исторически судьба развела нас. Был в Варшаве много раз очень нравился этот город. И общался с поляками на русском, а они со мной на польском и могли понять друг друга.
So far it seems that only ortography and singular word in this entire song are different, but ortography is close enough to fully understand it anyways.
Przepiękna piosenka tak jak zawsze i to w moim języku czego się nie spodziewałem coś przecudownego a z ciekawości - czy jest szansa na pieśni w starszych odmianach języka polskiego lub innych języków słowiańskich?
@@SkaldBardHello! May I propose you Battle of Grunwald? We, alongside with Lithuanians and Ruthenians, fought arm to arm with Teutonic invader. We found each other under field of Grunwald. Before Poles and Lithuanians charged, they sang ,,Bogurodzica" and after that they rode to battle. We won with Order that chose they way of evil, while it was supposed to defend Christianity. I am waiting for your reply. Kind regards🇵🇱❤️🔥🇬🇧🇮🇪, Polish subscriber
Even looking at some polish books from late XVIII century we can see how much orthography has changed. I find it very amusing to try to read these books. The words don't look anyhow familiar, but after you try to read and articulate some way, then they sound familiar. I'm curious how do the language researchers determine the sound of some language from few centuries ago. I suppose there is an element of interlanguage comparison. In older polish orthography there are accents above letters, so I think that means accents similar to what is used in spanish. We can also see thay 'y' is used im places where we'd use 'i' nowadays. But how can we know what was the exact sound of this 'y'? Anyway, nice that you did this song :)
@@GeorgeSmith-oc2oz you know that Moravian Is still actual, right? But as nářečí, accent? Imagine Czech, Meaning from Czech part of Czechia, moving to Moravia, he Will understand but wont be able to adapt to many different words for Common things, like tramvaj (trolley/small intown train like bus) Is called here šalina etc.
Than you! If You want to hear middle Polish I invite You to mooy kanneł. To XX century we tell "ł" ... I show you. In songs we have different sylabic stress Świetna robota! Bóg zapłać +
Oh, as a Russian speaker, I understood a third of the song, but I also see borrowings from non-Slavic languages. It is interesting to hear an earlier version of the Polish language.
The Turk commander was defeated by his own greed. He basically had the city outright, save for a final step of actually invading, but he kept trying to get them to surrender, and not out of any kind of mercy. If he succeeded, he’d have basically become, de facto, sovereign lord over the city, in control of its wealth generating systems since the infrastructure would be intact. Direct invasion without surrender, means no quarter, the loot would be evenly divided amongst the troops, and the city would effectively become a worthless burned out hole in the ground full of charred bones, and lots of exotic sex slaves taken back to Turkey. But he wanted the former, not the latter, with Vienna, so he kept trying and trying to persuade them to finally surrender, a hubris which accidentally bought Sobieski precious time to snatch victory away from the Turks.
Here’s a song I wrote and performed in Polish with Late Middle Polish orthography - there is very little distinction between Modern Polish and Late Middle Polish, so any Poles out there likely won’t hear the difference.
This time it’s about the glorious King Jan Sobieski and his famed Winged Hussars at the Battle of Vienna.

The only two countries (Poland & Spain) which achieved impossible success in human history, one is recovered, defended and defeated the invasion of a “mild” Religion, and another is defeated the Invasion of Red Plague. Poland is the eternal shield of God and spear of Europe.
Thank you so much from Poland 🇵🇱☦️♥️
@@michalzklodzkafr sorry to ask, but why your icon is the dictator in North Korea???
@@jiaxunliu8181 why not?
@@michalzklodzkafr In my opinion, this man is belong to the Red Plague that Polish used to fight with, it is a little bit weird for you to use him as the icon…… Sorry if I offended you.
@@jiaxunliu8181 I know. But this is a joke.
i can't even stop. its been 6 hours. YES
p.s. fire song, please make more eastern european ones like this
Świetne. Thank you.🌹
Piękná piosenká! Szkoda że późniéj nás rozebráli Awstriacý...
Однако теперь слава польского оружия гремит в украинских степях, где бойцы ВСУ платят тяжёлую цену за защиту Европы от набегов московитов. Но без вашей помощи нашему народу бы пришлось ещё тяжелее в борьбе против захватчиков...

Dude, you are awesome
How you manage to learn this many languages??? I am more amazed to think that these languages are not in common tongue anymore!!! And also I love your music.
Learning few phrases is pretty easy, this one took him probably 1-2 weeks without grind
This has value. Cool. I feel like I could lift mountains becous to do otherwise would be dishonorable. 💪
Niech żyje Polska. Pozdrawiam z Germanii
Pozdrawiam, bracie w Chrystusie🇵🇱🇩🇪✝️☦️
My ancestors were there as part of the defenders. My ancestor later lost his life as the HRE took Belgrade for the first time. Another ancestor was the Consort to the Queen of Poland who was a Hapsburg.
Very nice! I'd just like to remark that before the 19th century most Poles pronounced the Ł as an L in Long, not as the "W" as in Water, as it often sound today.
Back then only peasants spoke like that, and Winged Hussars were all nobility. They definetly spoke the Ł with their tongue.
Love this, dude.
Make something simillar about hussites and ill love you for the rest of my life.
The best song of rzeczpospolita obojga narodów since bogurodzica. Thank you!
As a Pole I can say it's really nicely done, sometimes your tonation feels off and there are a few moments, in which grammar also does so. Though I'm seriously impressed by how well can a foreigner use Polish, because it's not often seen. You've got my respect.
There are many Polish immigrants in the British Isles, so for British or Irish, especially when being Catholic, it's relatively easy to learn Polish when having Polish friends.
A toast, to the Polish people who bravely gave their lives for Europe. You are all heroes
I don’t know if you do requests but I would love to hear a song in welsh (or any of the Celtic languages) about the crusades or something of that nature, keep up the good work!!
I have plans for Irish and Welsh actually so stay tuned :-)
@@SkaldBard so cool! Just listened to your cnut song, you deserve 1 million subscribers by now
@@sunkan_dunkan_ Haha, thanks for the support, my friend
@@SkaldBard What about eastern Indo-European languages like Persian and Sanskrit? There aren't that many Christian songs in them, they could use a few more!
That's a pretty cool idea ;-)
Dobra robota.
damm like litery dot to dot polish. i am shocked xd amazing work
As a Pole it sounds a bit weird to my ear, but I think it is good anyway
We're slowly getting closer to you making a epic saga song about Hungary (migration period!?)
Haha.. I'll think about it ;-)
This sounds more understandable to me than modern polish as a Bulgarian speaker.
It's understandable, considering that Polish was more similar to Proto-Slavic in 17th century. But I am as Polish very shocked how middle-Polish is similar to modern-Polish
Wery nice!
Please make Remaster or Remake of this song!
Przychodzimy na bójki i pierogi... i nie mamy już pierogów!!!

Need the winged Hussars more than ever before now. Same Enemy from within this Time.
Bogduricza! 💙💛❤️🤍
Русские тоже могут прочитать текст песни. Если немного постараться. Самый близкий народ для русских по языку и по духу. Жаль, что исторически судьба развела нас. Был в Варшаве много раз очень нравился этот город. И общался с поляками на русском, а они со мной на польском и могли понять друг друга.
Смутно, но это правда. Но народы- братья🇵🇱❤️🇷🇺
Polska Gurom 🇵🇱💪

Sława dumnym Panom Braciom spod chorągwi husarskich, pancernych, lekkich i pana Lisowskiego!

Jako Polak bardzo dziękuję. Pozdrawiam.
Then the Winged Hussars arrived!
Polonia semper fidelis!
So far it seems that only ortography and singular word in this entire song are different, but ortography is close enough to fully understand it anyways.
Very strong bro🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
Please make more songs in Slavic languages
Actually it sounds fully modern Polish. Old Polish could be easily differentiated. Only the spelling is archaic.
Przepiękna piosenka tak jak zawsze i to w moim języku czego się nie spodziewałem coś przecudownego
a z ciekawości - czy jest szansa na pieśni w starszych odmianach języka polskiego lub innych języków słowiańskich?
Dziękuję serdecznie! Bardzo chętnie bym pisał więcej takich piosenek, muszę tylko znaleźć fajne tematy :D
@@SkaldBardHello! May I propose you Battle of Grunwald? We, alongside with Lithuanians and Ruthenians, fought arm to arm with Teutonic invader. We found each other under field of Grunwald. Before Poles and Lithuanians charged, they sang ,,Bogurodzica" and after that they rode to battle. We won with Order that chose they way of evil, while it was supposed to defend Christianity.
I am waiting for your reply.
Kind regards🇵🇱❤️🔥🇬🇧🇮🇪,

Even looking at some polish books from late XVIII century we can see how much orthography has changed. I find it very amusing to try to read these books. The words don't look anyhow familiar, but after you try to read and articulate some way, then they sound familiar.
I'm curious how do the language researchers determine the sound of some language from few centuries ago. I suppose there is an element of interlanguage comparison. In older polish orthography there are accents above letters, so I think that means accents similar to what is used in spanish. We can also see thay 'y' is used im places where we'd use 'i' nowadays. But how can we know what was the exact sound of this 'y'?
Anyway, nice that you did this song :)
Cool. Who knows Polish, tell me, is the language of the song very different from modern Polish?
Now in czech, slovak and Lužic serbian and you have whole west Slav (central european) slavic languages
If to count current ones, because there also were medieval ones, Moravian and Polabian.
Plus there are "transitive" languages in and near Carpathians, more East Slavic but also close to West Slavic ones (Ruthenian, Lemkish).
@@GeorgeSmith-oc2oz you know that Moravian Is still actual, right? But as nářečí, accent? Imagine Czech, Meaning from Czech part of Czechia, moving to Moravia, he Will understand but wont be able to adapt to many different words for Common things, like tramvaj (trolley/small intown train like bus) Is called here šalina etc.
@@jarumascz4361have you heard of family named Zini von Zinaburg from Moravia?
@@robjus1601 unfortunately no
How many Scandinavians were in those war's?Quite a few
Than you! If You want to hear middle Polish I invite You to mooy kanneł. To XX century we tell "ł" ... I show you. In songs we have different sylabic stress Świetna robota! Bóg zapłać +
может если выпадет честь сразится с врагом - я предпочту встретить смерть верхом на коне, с острой пикой-древом в руках
Oh, as a Russian speaker, I understood a third of the song, but I also see borrowings from non-Slavic languages. It is interesting to hear an earlier version of the Polish language.
Even better, Late Middle Polish is literally Modern Polish with different letters
Bogurodzica- Polish Battle Hymn.
The Turk commander was defeated by his own greed. He basically had the city outright, save for a final step of actually invading, but he kept trying to get them to surrender, and not out of any kind of mercy. If he succeeded, he’d have basically become, de facto, sovereign lord over the city, in control of its wealth generating systems since the infrastructure would be intact. Direct invasion without surrender, means no quarter, the loot would be evenly divided amongst the troops, and the city would effectively become a worthless burned out hole in the ground full of charred bones, and lots of exotic sex slaves taken back to Turkey. But he wanted the former, not the latter, with Vienna, so he kept trying and trying to persuade them to finally surrender, a hubris which accidentally bought Sobieski precious time to snatch victory away from the Turks.
Wrong god gave us victory
