Renaissance music - Riu Riu Chiu

[@smaragdchaos]

Probably the best version of Riu Riu Chiu around

[@jonasgreylindley2002]

That said, I do love The Monkees version.

[@historystudent3985]

Amazing music! The Renaissance was such an interesting time period!

As a portuguese speaker, i honestly have an easier time understanding this variation of old castillian than modern spanish

[@leonfojo6170]

I speak Spanish and understood everything when I heard it

[@celeridad6972]

Makes sense, the longer we go back the easy is to understand eachother, remember that at some point we spoke the same languague, Latín.

@@lorenzoc.b.9809 because it is by papal bull and has no basis in scripture at all. Basically, he made it up

In response to a comment that says that "riu riu chiu" has no translation from the ancient to modern spanish... is correct, because "riu riu chiu" is an onomatopoeia of the song of the nightingale.

[@williambastos1883]

For the Kingfisher, actually. It's it's predator call.

[@lorenzoc.b.9809]

But it could be also read as "laugh, laugh, cry". And I think you are talking about other song of the Cancionero: "Dindirindin", which is about a nightingale singing.

[@eexpmalful]

@@lorenzoc.b.9809 Es posible Lorenzo, entonces cambio lo del ruiseñor por el mirlo o la alondra. Porque lo del 'riu' tiene alguna raíz que se puede asimilar a la risa, pero con lo del 'chiu' (¿llorar?), no comulgo ni harto de vino. Por último ¿sabías que el ruiseñor canta al atardecer?, lo digo porque el Dindirindín comienza - mejor o peor traducido - con esta estrofa: " Yo me levanté UN BON MATÍ (UNA BUENA MAÑANA), y caminé sobre el prado...".

Ríu Ríu Chíu, also known as Ríu Chíu, is a Spanish villancico that has attained some contemporary fame as a Christmas carol. Refrain: Riu, riu, chiu la guarda ribera / Dios guardó el lobo de nuestra cordera / Dios guardó el lobo de nuestra cordera. Verses: El lobo rabioso la quiso morder / Mas Dios Poderoso la supo defender / Quizo la hacer que no pudiese pecar / Ni aun original esta virgen no tuviera. Riu, riu, chiu... Este que es nascido es El Gran Monarca / Cristo Patriarca de carne vestido / Ha nos redimido con se hacer chiquito / Aunque era infinito finito se hiciera. Riu, riu, chiu ... Este viene a dar a los muertos vida / Y viene a reparar de todos la caida / Es la luz del dia aqueste Moçuelo / Este es el Cordero que San Juan dijera. Riu, riu, chiu ... Yo vi mil Garzones que andavan cantando / Por aqui volando haciendo mil sones / Diciendo a gascones Gloria sea en el Cielo / Y paz en el suelo pues Jesus nasciera. Riu, riu, chiu ... Pues que ya tenemos lo que deseamos / Todos juntos vamos presentes llevemos / Todos le daremos nuestra voluntad / Pues a se igualar con nosotros viniera. Riu, riu, chiu ...

Is riu riu chiu related to the greek symbols for christ chi rho?

[@andreafalconiero9089]

No, they're just nonsense syllables that resemble one of the calls of the Kingfisher, a bird that in this song guards the riverbank from _el lobo_.

[@NihilisticAltruist]

A Spanish Christmas carol (villancico) dating from the 16th century. According to Wikipedia and some other sources, "ríu ríu chíu" apparently represents the call of a kingfisher, which could be a metaphor for God protecting the Virgin Mary from the devil. In keeping with this metaphor, the ambiguous second line can be loosely interpreted as "The river bank is protected", although other interpretations are possible.
