Palästinalied in Latin [Crusader Song] | The Skaldic Bard

[@SkaldBard]

Here is my translation and performance of the one and only Palästinalied in Latin. I’m using ecclesiastical pronunciation in true Catholic fashion. Again, I’ve tried to keep to the rhyming signature while not changing the meaning (too much), and I’m quite pleased with how it’s turned out. Let me know what you think! If you’d like to support the channel, please like and subscribe. You could also leave me a donation at www.buymeacoffee.com/theskaldicbard if you’d like to help me make more videos. Cheers and God bless. Lyrics: Prīmā vice vīvō vērē quia ego peccātor videō nōbilitātem huius terrae cui tantus honor datur; ideō, opus noster maximus: ad locum illum vēnimus in quem ut homo ībat Deus. Terrae pulchrae et dīvitēs, sicut alibī vīdī. Tū honor omnium eōrum es. Tālia mīrācula hīc! Ex Virgine nātus est angelōrum omnium Rex. Haec hominis cāra prex! Hīc baptizātus est, Pūrus, ut hominēs sint pūrī. Ibi Dominus vēnditus, ut servī sīmus līberī. Aliōquin perditī fuerimus! Avē, Hasta, Spīna, Crux! Vae pāgānīs! Vōbīs vulnus! Ad īnferōs dēscendit Fīlius ex sepulcrō in quo positus. Quia Pater comes illīus aeternus est; et Spīritus. Non dīvidentur; sunt ūnum! Rēctiōrēs quam spīculum! Sic appāruit Ābrahae iūdaeōrum. Ibi Diabolum humiliāvit; melius quam Imperātor pugnāvit. Iter ad hanc terram fēcit. Tunc dolor iūdaeōrum coepit: Ēvāsit Dominus, posteā appāruit vivus, ex eōrum manibus trucibus. Chrīstiānī, iūdaeī et ethnicī sunt ob terram hanc inimīcī. Arbitrium Deī vīcit, in nomine triplicī. Hīc est pāx perusta! Est petītiō nostra iūsta! Nōbīs dabitur terra venusta! My intention is exclusively to teach history and languages through song. I do not condone, endorse or seek to glorify violence.

@@grimassassin9722 YOU can do whatever the f you want, but facts are facts. Latin is an imperative language that built western civilization and influenced all the post Roman kingdoms, not to mention that it survived through the Catholic Church that made it even more imperative and authoritarian.

[@grimassassin9722]

@@SuperJuvexxx​​⁠if you hate Latin so much why did you even come onto this video that is IN LATIN! Again a language can’t be authoritarian, a group using the language can but a language can’t. Give one way that Latin is authoritarian as a language and not by people using it in religion or used by the Roman Empire which had spoke Latin before it became an empire. If your argument is that it’s authoritarian because the Catholic Church uses it, then I guess every language is authoritarian as every language can be tied to at least 1 religion. Do you consider German authoritarian because hitler wars in charge of Germany for what 9 years or something similar

[@charleschapman4744]

I really enjoyed listening to this. It sounds very authentic and the Latin is largely accurate, which is a rare occurrence on KZbin. I hope that I will not offend in any way if I should offer a few points on the lyrics? 1. I believe that 'opus' is neuter, singular, nominative, so not 'opus noster maximus' but rather 'opus nostrum maximum'. I appreciate that it looks like a second declension masculine noun because it terminates with -us, but I am quite certain that it is third declension neuter, so there is a case agreement issue here. 2. I believe that 'in quem' means 'into which', but 'where' or 'in which', with the sense of something happening IN a place, would be conveyed by 'in quo': 'in quo ut homo ibat Deus'. 3. Be mindful of the sequence of tenses in purpose clauses. The perfect tense, when used as the simple past tense in the main clause, must be followed by an imperfect subjunctive verb in the purpose clause. So instead of: 'Hic baptizatus est, Purus, ut homines sint puri.' Use: 'Hic baptizatus est, Purus, ut homines essent puri.' If the perfect tense is used as the true perfect tense however (i.e. 'Here he HAS been baptised') then the purpose clause would use a present subjunctive. 4. The other side of my second comment: since the verb 'positus est' has the connotation of motion inherent in the idea of placing or laying someone into a grave, I think that the line should be 'ex sepulcro in quod positus'. The idea is that the accusative case relates the idea of motion towards or into; the ablative case relates the idea of movement away from or a lack of motion. Please let me know what you think! Latin is my passion, so I cannot help but analyse everything :)
