Alo Mattiisen "Sind surmani" / Laulupidu 2014

[@j.barbosaoliveirajr.9316]

Every time I see this festival, the songs, the people, the passion they sing and how they are "together" in such an event... I can't help but have a knot in my throat... I am not oblivious of your past suffering in Estonia ... and elegantly you defied, together won over the oppression put upon you... You all are victorious... it makes me proud even though I am Brazilian. What a beauty of your people you show through your Laulupidu festival... it makes everyone who has a sensitive heart to visit your country and be blessed by your beauty. Long live Estonia!

[@j.barbosaoliveirajr.9316]

@hearsayhermit Thank you for your kindness. I would love to be there in 2025 but not sure how likely that would be. Have a wonderful weekend.

[@laurienator]

Obrigado!

[@HK-gm8pe]

being on this festival is just amazing feeling , something magical happens there indeed also my family has very volpicated past , great grandfather died in siberian gulags and my family has done everything that I wouldnt forget the past , I am an history student but Estonian histry is still too depressing for me

[@j.barbosaoliveirajr.9316]

@@HK-gm8pe I believe that this is an amazing experience. Your family is right. If we forget the past we will commit the same sins. What the USSR did to Estonia and Estonian people is a crime to humanity. That's why I appreciate your people so much. Even though being a small country, Estonia is a survivor. That's why I get so emotional seeing you all singing. I link all of this together. I understand how depressing it could be but please don't stop talking about it with the next generation. Somehow Estonian re-lived from the ashes and that is very important. Know how sorry I feel for Estonia and how grateful I am for the country it is today. Your people is beautiful!

Im glad my home country is free to sing and make these beatiful songs

[@oankiekim9128]

Greetings from South Korea I heard about Estonian's composer Alo Mattiisen just before and this music festival I respect Estonian who have similar history to Korea rules by Japan until 1945. All of the South Korean love peace and oppose domination by other contry. Russia, China, and even USA must give up their evil intention to rule other country with their power. If not, world always be in kaos caused by them. May peace be with you.

So moving... there is no way to let oneself to be taken by this hymn ... the translation is just superb ... the lyrics amazing and the quality of singing for such a big group is just astonishing... I wish I would have been there... There is something about these Estonians singing that just take our hearts somewhere that cannot be described easily! What a song! Thank you, Estonians... you contribution to music in such a suffering world is soothing for the soul! Thank you.

English translation: *Until Death* Until death I want to hold you dear, my blooming Estonian path, my smelling [1] fatherland. How, the country, you hold the children so tenderly in your arms, you give them bread, coverage, and also the last resting place. The same words, the same tune, could they be able to hold us, the same way as when the clover blooms and the aspens shiver. How your sons are quiet, so brave, strong, your daughters like flowers, they are blooming pretty! “The same words, the same tune…” But still I find a tear in your eyes. My Estonia, oh hope, that perhaps these times they change now. The same words, the same tune, the letters just as reluctant, just as easily as when what comes from the soul, goes to the soul. --------- Note: The Estonian word “lehkav” changed its meaning over the century. When it once meant “smelly” in a good way, then now it means “smelly” in a bad way. Still, people often disregard the current meaning and sing proudly the words as they once were meant to describe the aromatic way the country smells.

[@meegomae]

@Bibi Perez we use estonian

[@karlkarl93]

I feel like Fragrant or other words might fit better than smelling in english?

[@eksiarvamus]

@@karlkarl93 it was intentional. The Estonian word "lehkav" used to mean "fragrant", but nowadays it means "stinking". People just sing the original words out of old habit, but really they mean "my stinking fatherland". :)

Wonderful patriotic song. Greeting from your uralic cousins from Hungary. Sind surmani (Estonian) Sind surmani küll tahan ma kalliks pidada, mu õitsev Eesti rada, mu lehkav isamaa! mu Eesti vainud, jõed ja minu emakeel, teid kõrgeks kiita tahan ma surmatunnil veel! Kuis maa, nii hellast' kannad so lapsi käte peal, neil' annad leiba, katet Ja viimast aset veel! Tõest', armsam on mull' hinga' so põues, Maarjamaa, Kui võeral pinnal õnnes Ja aus elada! Kuis on so pojad vagad, nii vaprad, tugevad! So tütred nagu lilled, nad õits'vad nägusad! Ja taeva tuul ja päike sind õitsel hoiavad, Ja kõrge kotka tiivad kuis hellast' katavad! Ja tihti siiski leian so silmis pisarad? Mo Eestimaa, oh looda: ka ajad muudavad! Meil' tulevased tunnid veel toovad kinnitust! Käi kindlalt! Pea kõrgess'! Aeg annab arutust! Halálomig (Hungarian) Halálomig szeretni Akarlak igazán, Te illatos mezőség Viruló észt hazám! Apáink drága nyelve, Észt rétek, patakok, Titeket áldjon ajkam, Amíg meg nem halok! Mint anya gyermekére, Gondot viselsz reánk, Te táplálsz és ruházol, Sírt is te adsz, hazánk'. Oh, édesebb az élet Itt nálad énnekem, Mint másutt, bár talán ott Több boldogság terem! Fiaid oly kemények, Mint tűz és hősi láng, S leányaid szende-szépek, Mint a nyíló virág. Rónádon csókolóznak A szellő és a nap, S fölötte a magasban Sasok csaponganak. S mégis gyakorta látok Szemedbe könnyeket... Oh, én hazám, ne veszd el Hited, reményedet! Mely megfizet nekünk is, Eljő a szebb idő. Föl a fejed s előre Leszel te még dicső!

[@sanderorav9043]

These are actually the original lyrics. The original song was written by Aleksander Kunileid (melody) and Lydia Koidula (lyrics). This one over here is a variation of that, written by Alo Mattiisen (melody) and Jüri Leesment (lyrics). But as it's a variation, both melody and lyrics are quite similar, though.

[@alexgomezkolar2097]

Lyrics: Until I die, I want to always hold you dear my blooming Estonian/Ukrainian path; my good-smelling Fatherland How tenderly you hold the children, you give them bread and clothes and their last resting place. The same words, the same melody - can it hold/keep us? The same way like before, the grass grows and trees shake. Your sons are so virtuous, brave and strong. Your daughters are like flowers, blossoming and beautiful. Same words and melody, can they still keep us? The same way like before, grass grows and trees shake. Still I find tears in your eyes. Oh Estonia/Ukraine, keep hoping that these times will change. Same words, same melody, same stubborn stars. Just like before, what comes from your soul will enter another’s soul.

This is exactly why we need to retain the nation state. It's such a powerful building block of society and we demolish it at our peril.
