Solveig Andersson Jojk "Bjiejjie"

[@sandman0123]

Uncontrollable chills as her voice gets more and more powerful. Music transcends language, culture, colour and gender. Thank you for uploading this.

[@jaripekkavirtanen3396]

This is a great joik, I think. And I like it because it sounds and feels like old Finnish spells. It is not widely known but Finland has the worlds largest collection of spells, which just a small fraction of our original culture,which of course was at least as heavily supressed by outside forces as Sami peoples culture. This Joik got me really interested about Sami relative language.... The phrase "sun is raising" , in Sami, does not sound like the modern Finnish version "Aurinko nousee". But sounds quite close to the way the old people in my family said. Which is "Päivä koittaa" . As it is spelled, sounds somewhat similar. Old people in my family rarely used the word sun, they used the word day like Sami. about the sun. "Päivä koittaa" literal translation is in English " a day starts to radiate".

[@jaripekkavirtanen3396]

@@kailyjamessokame.6028 Hey great. You should be proud of who you are and also contact any old relatives still alive... I am a mainland Finnish, "lantalainen" as Sami people call us here in Finland. But I am from the family that "old Finland" was always present in everyday life. So I guess I was very lucky, as it basically dissappeared culture today. Original Finnish view of world is not that much different than original Sami view of the world.

[@jaripekkavirtanen3396]

And Kai I think you should definitely study your grandparents language. I that way you could do your share keeping Sami culture alive and strong. As it is also YOUR culture, isnt it?

It's funny, normally I wouldn't reply to a comment 3 bloody years after my initial post, were it not for the fact that comments end up in my inbox. 1. I never said that the sami came here first. 2. I'm saying the sami lived on Swedish ground before the borders of Sweden were drawn and it became officially Swedish. 3. The sami people came here approx 5000 years ago or more. Sweden as a country is not 5000 years old. 4. Even if I'm wrong the sami people still deserve to be treated with respect.

[@AmericanFoxhoundSami]

im saying in in finnish and svedish. Kiss my ass lol. Just got my dna thing. 100 % Finn. The thing is that some Finns are Sami like me. I love it others think what ever. Im proud that i have saami in me and im sad that the name vasent usend for like 200 years Kitti You will see the name again.

[@refresh5690]

@@paul_0266 You're only considered Sámi if you're more than 50% pure Sámi according to Sámitinget, and considering your name and not using the correct spelling for Sámi shows that you're far from Sámi, stop pretending, it's very disrespectful to the real Sámi...

[@TheAnimecosplaystuff]

@@refresh5690 That is not true either. According to Sametinget, (same is the swedish word for a sámi person). If either one of your parent or grandparent speaks or has spoken any of the sàmi dialects then you can VOTE in Sametinget. But many sámis would say that this way is weird and quite out dated, since our languages where banned and nomad schools where brought up, we lost ALOT of our languages. Many sámi people dont speak any but still have traditions and perhaps clothing, or maybe neither and have to reclaim their heritage by other means. Many of the older generations are still afraid to say that they are sámi and this results in many people not knowing of their heritage. It is actually very disrespectful of you to assume that the other person is not Sámi, we come in all shapes and formes, language or not, knowing your bloodline or not, gaptie, kofte, kolt or not. (different words for the same traditional sàmi clothing).

The Saami people are beautiful and I'd love to visit the lands they are from and learn more. There is a draw to that part of the world and the shaman beliefs. Past lives, maybe, or genetic memories... : )

This is soultouching , it's wonderful. Does anyone have lyrics ? I cannot find them on the internet. Thanx

[@bokvarv1926]

I am not sure if there are any lyrics to this actually, there ate basically "two types" of joik, one that does include actual words and language and the one that does not, most the "popular" joik we hear does include the sami language. However Joik is also and most traditionally not words but sounds, to explain I can say I do not not joik "about" a thing I joik "the thing" or id you Will I don't ABOUT the raindeer, but I joik THE Raindeer, the sounds channling the spirit, and as I said above sometimes mixed in with actual words in the sami languae(s) But I belive this is simply Joiking THE nature in this case, more than ABout

[@sirseigan]

I agree with you. According to language research Sami came to modern day Sweden, from modern day Finland around 2000 years ago. The base of the language is from Volga (Russia) around 4000 years ago. In the north of Sweden Swedes come from the south and the Sami came from the east and north but it seems that we arrived during roughly the same period of time (within 500 years). Sami moved along the inland, Swedes along the coastline. Two people, same period and same country - two ways of life.

Reading what you wrote here makes me very confused. What do you base this statements on? Some things they found on sacrificing sites in North Sweden are around 8000 years old. And the language is Finno Ugric.

[@briancooley8777]

“Those who destroy it” are practically everyone now

I interpret it as being about the return of the sun after a long dark harsh winter. As Sápmi is north of the Polar circle, where the sun does not even reach the horizon in winter.

[@EyelessEntity]

bjiejjie = sun. Today it is the Sami day in Sweden :) Perfect way to celebrate, listening to jojk. The Sami are older than the Swedes, but they were opressed when christianity came here...it is a shame. The priests thought their jojk and drums could summon Satan, and some sami people stopped to jojk so that they wouldn't be shut out from society. But the northern and eastern sami still use this beautiful tradition. I am not sami, but I love nature; therefore I love and respect them too.

[@warezguy4ever]

@EyelessEntity from the beginning all saami people where hunters and fishing people, the reindeer tradition become later.. the oldest saami history is from the forest they lived only in the forest and didnt moved so far as the saamis in the mountins that move from mountin to forest every year.. Saami lived in the south of sweden too called Västmanland, Dalarna, Gästrikland as sockenlappar, or they took work as horse butchers, make ropes and that to the farmers..

[@giuliennorge]

esa musica es como un grito contra las resistências, una fuerza de libertad.

[@mmatheusc]

@sirseigan Yes sir, I agree with that. I was merely comparing the timeline of the Saami with the Germanics in Scandinavia, not saying that the Saami originated there or were its first inhabitans. I think we both agree that the Saami arrived first. By the way, sorry for taking 2 years to answer. I had lost my youtube account and was only able to recover now.

[@DollarstoreSticker]

Ell Mond actually they’re the last indigenous of Europe and dealt with invaders from the boat axe people for about 2500 years.

[@briancooley8777]

DollarstoreSticker smh

[@sirseigan]

Sami Language Timeline: 4000 years ago: Base developed around Volga (Russia). 3000 years ago: Gets Slavo-Baltic loanwords. Splits from Finnish. 2500 years ago: Got NW Germanic loanwords (south Finnish coast). 2000 years ago: Splits up in sub-languages and dialects. 1300 years ago: Got Old Norse loanwords (Troms, north Norweigan coast). So no - you are wrong! In the inland of north of Sweden Sami people may have been first but not in Sweden as a whole nor along the Norwegian coastline.

No it's just a similar way of singing. But the Nordic/Scandinavian herding call/singing called Kulning ( there is plenty here on KZbin) is more similar to jodel. Different method but with the same reason behind it, long distance communication. It's still in use today here in northern Sweden.

@aneeko It is debated if there was much violance involved in the spread even. There is no evidence of grand massive attack. IE language most likely spread with the spread of the tamed horse and wagon from the Eurasian stepps these semi nomadic and mobile folk would have easly been able to create trade routes and becomed and economic and cultural force to count on. That is one should not say there was nevrer any violance but not so much as previously thought.

Most of the sámis are mixed up today. Some people inherit ''their'' sámi looks and some don't. Even if you live far way up in Sweden, you can't be sure that you are 100 procent sámi.

[@sirseigan]

Nordic people? You mean Sami people? And no you are wrong. The coexisted in what is modern day Sweden. Sami people came from the east to the north of Sweden around 2000 years ago according to combined archaeology and language science. Between 2000 and 1500 years ago the Swedes moved northwards to the north of Sweden. But while the Germanic people lived in south of Sweden Sami people were still in south of Finland according to language research.

[@torbjornstalberg9147]

The Swedes moved north and started settling in what we today call Sápmi during the reign of Gustav Wasa when the systematical colonisation of that territory began. Earlier sources of the coexistent of Sweds and Sámi people are yet not available, just speculations. Sámi people exsisted as south as Kristinehamn in Värmland during the 17th century so believing that the Sámi people just existed in North Sweden is not entirely correct. Where did you find and who has published the results of the combined archeaology and language science you are referring to? Language Science is a debate forum and not a reliable source of professional produced research results.
