Novēlam lustīgi nosvinēt Jāņus!
Ozoliņi, ozoliņi,
Tavu lielu resnumiņu:
Trīs dieniņas saule teka,
Nevarēja aptecēti.
Ozoliņi, ozoliņi,
Tavu lielu kuplumiņu:
Trīs dieniņas irbe teka,
Nevarēja aptecēti.
Ozoliņi, ozoliņi,
Tavu lielu diženumu:
Meitas nāca dziedādamas,
Vainagiemi zarus lauzti.
Ozoliņi, ozoliņi,
Tavu lielu vecumiņu:
Es piedzimu, tev atradu,
Es nomiršu tu paliksi.
Sanākati, Jāņa bērni,
Zem kuplāi ozoliņa;
Zem kuplāi ozoliņa,
Tur Jānīša goda vieta.

[@LaimaBa]

This song is praising oak trees - one of the symbols of musculinity in Latvian folklore. During the summer solstice (Jāņi) men (especially those named Jānis) will wear crowns made from oak leaves. The lyrics are about how mighty, powerful and old the oak tree is. 😊

[@romekKR]

ligla (łigła) means oak?

[@LaimaBa]

​@@romekKR "līgo" is basically a connective. Most summer solstice songs have "līgo" in the end of every line of the lyrics. The meaning of the word is a bit blurry - some say it means "to sway", but not really and it's almost impossible to explain. Oak = ozols. Ozoliņš is a diminutive form of the word. :)

[@jobond3317]

Thanks for the information about the song. Sounds lovely

[@bombel775]

Thank you!

[@amberhawke]

​@Kolnu Andrius That is a really beautiful version with a beautifully filmed and edited video.

[@LeoPlaw]

One of the things I love about this song, is how all of the generations are represented and sing their parts.

[@Bella-cb5xe]

I see the maidens, mothers and crones personally but maybe I’m reading too much into it. Is it my imagination or do the women’s garlands symbolize the stages of a woman’s life?

[@holyrust]

There are so few European pagan traditions that have been preserved. I love seeing, and hearing this. Such a simple song so beautifully arranged and performed.

[@naurisss]

Before the lyrics, I’ll try to explain a few words: Līgo - sway (name of the first day of Midsummer) Jānis - Diety of fire (name of the second day of Midsummer) (just in plural - Jāņi) Oak tree, oak tree, Your big width, Three days sun came, Yet couldn’t come. Oak tree, oak tree, Your big bushiness, Three days Partridge came, Yet couldn’t come. Oak tree, oak tree, Your big greatness, Daughters/Girls came singing, While breaking branches for the flowers crowns. Oak tree, oak tree, Your big eld, I was born, found you, I will die, you will stay. Gather along children of Jānis, Under the bushy oak tree, Under the bushy oak tree, There’s the Jānis’ place of honor.

[@bluebird3281]

Thank you!

[@ginniecrabtree4408]

Thank you I am a Bard and this song is wonderful.

[@intercat4907]

"I will die and you will stay" touches me deeply. There is an oak tree blight in Northern California. I have lost one of my two 30-year oak trees and the other is dying. I did not think I would live to see them go, and I have not said this to anyone else how sad and wrong this feels. I hope you understand. Thank you for the translation.

[@janszymanski2573]

I am the son of two of the WW2 Home Army, who chose exile in America rather than death at the hands of the Soviet Army secret police - it's our genetic memories, that are weeping. Our Ancestors are calling to us, reminding us of what we once were - free and pagan and one with the Earth and all Nature. Look at 2000 years of separation from that connection to Mother Earth and the love and lore of our Ancestors has done to us. Look at the hate that rules so many hearts, in a nation who's religion supposedly follows the Prince of Peace. Your heart and soul are right to weep.

@ Monique Reed Do that 24-25 of June when Summer Solistice (Ligo/Janji) is celebrated in Latvia with dancing, singing, around fire and a lot of other happenings, women wear flower crowns and so on so on...We celebrate St.Hans 24.06 also in Norway but it's not that huge like it's done in Latvia, where it is also an official day off.

we even have an annual festival celebrating our music and culture! its called the song and dance festival(very simple, yes, but holds power.) theres many events recorded too. Singing in it is something magical, even just watchin it resonates with me so maybe you might enjoy it!

[@elzamikelsone9507]

@@lifeimprovementknowhow3822 actually, the correct date from history is 23rd of June. (Nowdays mostly celebrate in 24) Flower crowns or just crowns made from leaves are worn by everyone, big or small. The correct names for this celebration of summer solstice is "Līgo" or "Jāņi", both are regocnised.

I don't understand any word, but my heart translates it with pure joy of life. Thanks, it rises my heart.

My daughter sent this to me and said "Heaven would sound like this to my mother" She is right. My birthday is June 23 and that is when this celebration takes place. I can't stop watching--I want to turn slowly without effort and sing with them.

I'm a simple man, I see a man in a field wearing a tree with a drum, I'm clicking that thumbnail knowing there is a joy to be found waiting.

Many many beautiful faces in this video, and such a joyous, hopeful song!

[@TheSme0149]

I swear this is the most beautiful song I have ever heard!

These people make so much sense to me. For many years, I have been drawn towards Latvian folk magic and witchcraft practices. It’s sooo beautiful. 💛💖 I would like to make friends.

Love to see people of so many different ages singing the same song...you don't see that often!

It’s our culture traditions ! We celebrated Līgo in night from 23 June to 24 June

You must have really long days that far north, during the Solstice.

You know they got the entire village involved to do this, they have all the wonderful authentic instruments together for this. Just missing a Hurdy-gurdy. Can't have it all.
