Hajduks of Raška - Epic Slavic Music of Serbia

Music composed by Farya Faraji. Next up in the series about the Hajduks (freedom fighters of the Balkans against Ottoman rule) is this one with a Serbian musical theme. The instrumentation harkens to the historical instrumentation that was present during the period of the Hajduks; drums, different Saz-type instruments like the Šargija, and the typical Kaval flute of the Balkans, as well as the gajda bagpipe, mostly associated with Bulgaria but also utilised by Serbs. The time signature is in 7/16, an extremely rare occurrence in world music outside of the Balkans, which is known for its asymmetrical rythmic structures. The melody imitates the typical folk songs of Serbia, such as Žali, Zare, da žalimo and others, and the instrumentation is heavily based on that of bands like Kulin Ban, who use an older, 16th to 18th century Serbian instrumentation compared to the more recent addition of accordions, clarinets, saxophones etc.
Raška is a historical and geographical region of modern-day Serbia which was conquered by the Ottomans around 1455, and liberated gradually starting from 1833. In the middle-ages, it was one of the central regions of the Serbian principality, with the important city of Ras which gave the broader region its name, and Rascia of was often used as the Latin exonym to mean Serbia in Latin sources during the Middle-Ages, pointing to the significance of the region.
The figure at the center of the image is Veljko Petrović, more commonly known as Hajduk Veljko, one of the most prominent leaders of the Serbian revolution against Ottoman rule. The lyrics are from an operatic-style piece by Stevan St. Mokranjac (9 January 1856 - 28 September 1914), a Serbian composer, and the passage these lyrics are from is called the Sixth Garland, Šesta Rukovet, and recounts the historical event in which Hajduk Veljko, during the Battle of Negotin, proclaimed "I'll give my head, but I'll not give Krajina!" (Krajina meaning the frontier, or the border). The battle ended with a victory and massive Ottoman losses, but Veljko was struck by a cannonball and died almost immediately.
Lyrics in Serbian:
Јер ти иде силна војска,
Силна војска, до три паше.
Одговара Ајдук-Вељко:
И ја имам силну војску,
Силну војску: три нахије.
Главу дајем, Крај'ну не дајем!
Xај, хај, хај, хај!
Jer ti ide silna vojska,
Silna vojska, do tri paše.
Odgovara Ajduk-Veljko.
I ja imam silnu vojsku,
Silnu vojsku: tri nahije.
Glavu dajem, Kraj'nu ne dajem!
Haj, haj, haj, haj!
English translation:
Because a mighty army is coming to you,
A strong army, up to three pashas."
Ajduk-Veljko answers:
"And I have a mighty army,
A strong army: three nahiyas.
I'll give my head, I'll not give Krajina!"
Hey, hey, hey, hey!

hajduk is a Hungarian term for a saboteur soldier, hajduks were from Slovakia,hungary to Croatia, Romania, hajduks arose in the 16th century in Austria-Hungary, hajduks and uskoks, and they appeared in Serbia only in the 19th century, serbians have no connection with hajduks from the 16th century ,kzbin.info/www/bejne/jIOrgYePo5ykj5I it is interesting that at the same time the Ukrainian Cossacks appeared, the rulers of the wild steppes,

[@sal6695]

Minor complaints, not in the lyrics but in the performance, you read it "i ja imam silna vojska" instead of "i ja imam silnu vojsku" which would be typical of a different dialect than the one that the main work is written in. Also, "i ja imam" would better be translated as "I also have" or "I too have" rather than "and I have"

[@miastupid7911]

And so Veljko Petrović indeed kept his oath.

[@faryafaraji]

@@sal6695 Yeah I noticed that it was written “u” but the original piece I took the lyrics from sing it with the “a” ending, you can hear it in the original recording at 1:30: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWSxin94hM-so6s&feature=shares It did confuse me but I figured the composer must have had his reasons so I stuck with that since I don’t know much about the language

Finding Farya Faraji's music has been one of the great joys of my life. Being an old and technically inept guy, I only wish that he sold cds of his wonderful performances so that I could fill my house with music such as this. Best wishes, Farya, from Kirkos-Helios.

[@faryafaraji]

Thanks for the kind words Kirk! Unfortunately at this time producing CD’s is too costly for me but we’ll see what the future brings! Greetings from Canada :)

Iam from Negotin,it is very nice to hear something like this. I was in church choir when I was in a high school and often sing 6th Garland and this was a favourite piece for us and even today I like to sing that to my son. Stevan Mokranjac was born in Negotin. You have a good voice and pronunciation is excellent. It is original and different from original,but I like it very much. Keep good work.

I was named after the famous hajduk Veljko. Allegedly when Veljko Petrović knew the Ottomans would seize his castle, he kept his wealth within his lockers so that the Ottoman soldiers would have something to look up to after defeating him.
