Music of conscience and ethnic pride

[Purépecha]

I see a tendency to value and rescue ethnic roots.

This thread is to show songs that talk about that.

Viking roots:

"Deyr faith
Deyja frændr
Deyr sjalfr it sama
Ek veit einn
In aldrei deyr
Dómr um dauðan hvern"

"Cattle die, relatives die
You yourself will also die
I know one thing that never dies
The reputation of those who died"


"Coexistence, Conflict, combat
Devastation, regeneration, transformation
That is the best I can do for you
I see a gray gloom on the horizon
That promises a powerful sun to rise
To melt away all moons
It will make the old fires of purification"

[Purépecha]

Mongolian pride:

"Өвөг дээдсийн өвлөж өгсөн газар шороог хайрлаж чаддаггүй нь юу вэ юу вэ юув
Өтгөс буурлын захиж хэлсэн үнэт сургааль худлаа болдог нь юу вэ юу вэ юув
Өнө л мөнхөд мандан бадрах чонон сүлдэт Монгол түмэн тэнгэрийн тамгатай
Хөвчин дэлхийд нэрээ дуурсгах хүмүүн тахилгат эзэн Чингис нартад залрана, нартад залрана"

"Why is it so difficult to value the land our ancestors left us?
It's strange, it's strange.
Why are the wisdom temples of our ancestors found in ashes?
It's strange, it's strange.
Mongols have the blessing of heaven and with our inner strength,
we will gather all the nations of the world.
Ghengis Khan will return, will return."


Song about Maori resistance:

"He pakanga nunui mo te whakautu
Tae mai nga tūpuna mo te whakaāwhina
Kia mau nga Tohunga mo te whakakarakia
E mahi nga mahi to Tūmatauenga "

"A mighty battle to avenge ourselves
Our ancestors come together to help us
Our priests prepare the incantations
This is the work of Tūmatauenga (power of war)"

Something from Mexico:

Young Mexican Amerindians from the rooftop of their slum send a message of conscience:

"Totonaltzin ye omotlatihzinoh,
totonaltzin ye omixpoliuhtzinoh,
ihuan centlayohuayan otechcahuilih.

Mach tictomachiliah occeppa mohualhuiliz,
ma occeppa moquizaltiz
ihuan yancuican techmotlahuililiquiuh."

"Our sun (collective energy) is already hidden,
our sun has already disappeared its face,
leaving us in complete darkness,
but we know it will appear again,
it will come out again
and it will shine upon us."


loss of Amerindian culture:

"¿Qué más? Me pides amar,
que de rodillas llegue a la Villa.
Memorizar, para no pensar.
¡Quema la Villa!
¡Quema la herida!"

"What else? You ask me to love,
on my knees I get to the place.
Memorize, not to think.
The place burns!
The wound burns!"

[Chryssie Khanate]

Chuvash pride! I just love hearing different forms of the Turkic language. Too bad I don't understand the lyrics...

[Purépecha]

Why did Macedonia separate from Greece?

[Dr_Maul]

Why did Macedonia separate from Greece?

The real question is, why did it separate from Bulgaria?

On a more serious note, I would not recommend you ask these questions on this forum. Balkanigga presence is strong

Not sure if this fits the topic.
