Shchedryk / Щедрик - Carol of the Bells Original Ukrainian Version REACTION

[@juliette457]

Most people know this song as Carol of the Bells, but the original belongs to the Ukrainian carol Shchedryk, and it was Ukraine that created this masterpiece that has been heard throughout the world for centuries. I want more people to know about it and differentiate the versions. Of course, the English version is good, but I am very glad that the original belongs to Ukraine

[@princeblworld]

And I pray this will happen. 💛💙

[@ninagoncharenko4498]

Little mistake - for centuries - not through the whole world, just in Ukraine. It started widely known after it was presented on the concert of Ukrainian choir in 1919 in New York and translated in English. It became very popular very quickly. It is very old originally - first words of the song say that the small bird returned home in spring after spending winter somewhere in South. This song came from times when people celebrated New Year at the start of spring.

Love that song. Also the version with Taras from Antytila and a children choir "Carol for charity".

[@ГаляЧміль-з1п]

This song is very old. Hundreds of years ago, even before Christianity, Ukrainians celebrated the new year in the spring. And the traditional songs were wishes for a good harvest and a healthy herd of domestic animals (and, accordingly, prosperity) in the new year. That is why the original text contains the words "a swallow flew in" because migratory birds return to Ukraine in the spring, and "lambs were born" also happens in the spring. But the words "your goods are all good, you will have a lot of money" because in ancient times people lived from what they grew and sold, then these words are a wish for the owner of a good profit. When Christianity came to our land, many pagan holidays were replaced by Christian ones (imposed on top). (for an easier transition) And although this song had nothing to do with Christmas, it was traditionally continued to be sung, because there is nothing unchristian or bad about wishing for well-being. Thus, this song, through the centuries, has survived to our time. As well as carols (kolyadky), shchedrivky(Songs of wishes for well-being) and freckles (vesnyanka - Songs calling for spring). By the way, the most famous Ukrainian vesnyanka (pagan traditional song of summoning spring), which is many hundreds of years old, is "SHUM". Performed by Go_A, it took second place at Eurovision in 2021. We are a young country, but our culture is very ancient

This song is a thousand years old, because Christianity was introduced to our land - Kievan Rus' a long time ago. Then our state was one of the leading countries in the world, then there was an invasion of the Tatars on our land, the hetmanship, then slavery in Russia, and here we are again reborn and fighting for our independence.

Here is another eye opener about the song. The original lyrics in Ukrainian which have been translated here into English do not mention Christmas, Christ, caroling, bells, or even winter. Instead they make references to the beginning of spring, e.g swallow coming back after seasonal migration, cattle giving birth to their calves and lambs... This is probably because the song dates back to the ancient tradition of celebrating new year in spring, not in January.

Yes, you are right: it does have pagan origins - the antient (Ukrainian) Slavs regarded spring as the start of a year. Over time, as Christian priests tried to rebrand pre-existing traditions, it lead to turning the song into a Christmas Carol even though it's not mentioned directly in the lyrics.

When Word war 1 was almost finished, Ukrainian started its fight for independence. Shchedryk was represented to the Europe and Canada, and USA during big World tour, to show Ukrainian culture as a unique culture of people, that wanted to realise their right to have their own sovereign country (and the war for freedom was still going on the territory). It was not realised then. But Ukrainians as an independent political nation started their way). And Leontivych was killed by Russian special agents, by the way..

So when I let her know that Ukrainian language is beautiful with a lot of soul, I said something that ment a lot to her.

That motive super ancient. From Cucuteny-Trypillya culture till today we like to grow to improve our houses and suroundings.

I'm Ganna from Bucha, I was five I really wanted to go for a walk. The basement is cold and dark and even the snow is not visible through the window, and take the Mishka that lies under the table, but these three came to our house. Now I'm cut into pieces they put me and mom in bags, and just thrown out the window. I'm Ganna from Buchi and it's dark for me. And I'm seventeen, I would be glad to leave, but the mother is sick, little brother, and I wanted to bring water, and there was almost no food left at home. I got shot in both legs an eye was cut out, and not a single zgi is visible. Mishka is scared without the light of day. I Misha. Bury me! And I'm Olesya. I'm forty six. I went out to buy food. A bag of potatoes, a bun, cheese, body shapeless from holes and left here to lie, they just cut off their ears to take earrings, and poked me in the stomach with a boot ... Olesya from Bucha. I am a mother of three. I took my children and wife to the village. Stopped. Bad luck. We do not see the sky, we do not hear the birds. Now we are meat. We don't have faces. The wife prayed, but God did not save. Please bury us! And I'm Olena, I'm twenty-two, and I feel like I'm alive. I need to go to my sister for Easter and a fall wedding in September. But black evil trouble came The war is over, right? And there were five of them, laughing, they got tired of holding me. And they shot me in the face and took off my grandmother's ring. Now I lie in one shoe. Olena from Bucha. In a black bag. I see how they all lie here - Mikola, Olena, mother, brother. Spread your arms and on your back. Someone in the basement, facing the wall children with toys and an old man, and a cry drowns and cries in the throat. Wash away this grave sin no more I PAY FOR THEM, FOR ALL! YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ESCAPE NOW BE YOU AT LEAST HUNDRED, AT LEAST THREE, AT LEAST FIVE. YOU ALL BURN IN HELL! I AM JUSTICE AND I WILL COME!!!
