#mari songs

since russians are trying to treat "plyne kacha” (once a traditional song in the lemko dialect, now a song of remembrance/mourning for the deceased of the maidan and the subsequent war) like their war prize yet again, i invite you to (re)listen to ukrainians performing it instead of giving rage clout to those who feed off you feeling helpless.

Oh, a duckling swims down the Tysyna

Mother mine, do not scold me

Oh, if you scold me at this evil hour

I will die somewhere I do not know

Oh, I will die in a foreign land

Who will dig a grave for me?

Oh, strangers will dig for me

Will you not mourn me, mother?

Oh, how can I not mourn you, my son

For you used to lie on my breast

Oh, a duckling swims down the Tysyna

my mom is the conductor in our church choir and on easter they always sing the paschal troparion in different languages (based on what my mom likes music-wise and what her small non-professional choir can pull off without too much tweaking)

it's gotta be my favourite part of the service so i wanted to share them! (if i butcher the romanization here or there sorry + let me know the correct spelling please)

the chant goes: christ is risen from the dead, / trampling down death by death, / and to those in the tombs / bestowing life.

greek (hristos anesti)

georgian (krist’e aghsdga) (my favourite one tbh)

mandarin chinese (復活節讚詞 / fùhuó jié zàn cí)

well, ukrainian, of course (khrystos voskres)

and while i was looking up these ones i stumbled upon a couple others which i liked so i gotta pile them in for good measure :')

arabic (al massih qam) (i believe the rest of what he sings is the stichera?)

finnish (kristus nousi kuolleista)

irish (tá críost éirithe as na marbh)

happy easter everybody!!
