The map of Lithuania Minor would be more correct if it was like the territory of Memelland, not like whole East Prussia. Anyway, there's rare and truely respectful song.
Lithuanians in East Prussia lived in a much larger area than Klaipėda region (Memelland): lt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ma%C5%BEoji_Lietuva#/media/Vaizdas:Map_of_the_Lithuania_Minor_(Ma%C5%BEoji_Lietuva),_1753.jpg

Nice
Beautiful, ancient song, sung in Lithuanian.

Is the song Prussian or Curonian
so you sent me down a rabbit hole of obscure Baltic history and now I'm not sure if I classified this video wrong
it's most likely a verse of Lithuanian poetry, but its properly not exclusively "Prussian Lithuanian"
@@eastprussiaproductionsMaybe because i here a bit of Lithuanian and german, but this could also be Curonians
If the discussion is about song's language - it's definitely Lithuanian. Besides, noticeably informal and archaic Lithuanian.
