Shchedryk / Щедрик. Carol of the Bells. Original Ukrainian Version with English and Ukrainian Lyrics
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 дек 2020
- ✽ “Shchedryk” (the original “Carol of the Bells”) with lyrics I’ve translated from Ukrainian into English, as well as with original lyrics in Ukrainian.
“Shchedryk” was arranged by Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych at the beginning of the 20th century. The song is based on the traditional Ukrainian folk chant welcoming the New Year (“shchedrivka”). In 1921, the Ukrainian National Chorus sung the song in the United States to a sold-out audience at Carnegie Hall. Later, Peter J. Wilhousky rearranged the melody for orchestra and wrote the new lyrics in English thus creating “Carol of the Bells”. The original “Shchedryk” by Leontovych was intended to be sung a cappella by mixed four-voice choir.

✽ «Щедрик» (оригінал «Колядки дзвонів») зі словами, які я переклала з української на англійську, а також з оригінальним українським текстом.
«Щедрик» був написаний українським композитором Миколою Леонтовичем на початку ХХ століття. Пісня базується на українській народній щедрівці. У 1921 році, пісню вперше почула американська аудиторія у виконанні Української республіканської капели в Карнегі-Холі. Пізніше Пітер Вільговський написав аранжування мелодії для оркестру та написав нові слова англійською, створивши «Колядку дзвонів». Оригінальний «Щедрик» Леонтовича співається акапельно змішаним хором у чотири голоси.

♫ Lyrics in English:
Shchedryk, shchedryk, shchedrivochka
Here flew the swallow from afar
Started to sing lively and loud
Asking the master to come out
Come here, oh come, master - it’s time
In the sheepfold wonders to find
Your lovely sheep have given birth
To little lambs of great worth
All of your wares are very fine
Coin you will have in a big pile
All of your wares are very fine
Coin you will have in a big pile
You have a wife
Fair as a dove
If not the coin, then the chaff
You have a wife fair as a dove

This is a gift from Ukrainians to the world.
Unfortunately, I don't think they (Ukrainians) are getting the credit and recognition truly deserved here. Their own composers and artisans of all kinds are less well-known than they should be, this musical arrangement a prime example. Everyone thinks this a "christmas song" when it has nothing to do with that Middle-eastern religion whatsoever.
@@EyeSeeThruYou це пісня про традиційний Щедрий вечір, який святкували задовго до Різдва. Просто так вийшло, що одне свято "злилося" з іншим коли прийшло християнство.
Жалко что автора застрелил агент нквд 😥😥

Насправді, дуже прикро, що ніхто у світі крім українців не знає, звідки взялася ця пісня, і що вона не різдвяна, а язичницька новорічна. Дякую за розповсюдження нашої культури!

Як на мене це нормально, не бачу ніякої дивини в тому, що далека країна не знаю чогось про нас. Особливо враховуючи модернічність їхньої строю, де мігрантів і нового загалом завжди не-зраховні числа. Звичайно було б добре коли знали б більше але для того слід самим вчитися тому хто ми є і, що робили наші предки. Мені особисто навіть тут в Україні, знаючи українську і намагаючись це отримати силами все одно важко знайти багато достойного медійного контенту. Чаша нашого (внутрішнього) інформаційного середовища навіть на десяту частину не є повною, то що тоді можна казати про закордон. А є ще й інші кола..

@@giapponerosso It's the Pagan deep inside you. We all have it. The feeling of connection to the earth and nature and the primal beats of our Pagan ancestors' music. I have also noticed the Ukrainian language has quite a lot of sounds similar to Italian. They are both considered 'musical' languages.
I'm not Ukrainian but your language is so beautiful😭 world needs to know that this beautiful masterpiece is actually coming from the Ukraine🇺🇦 Дуже дякую ❤️
As Ukrainian I'm soooo happy you liked it♥️

Thank you for doing this, I was wanting to hear how the original was performed. Dyakuyu!
I love how the having dark eyebrows is seen as beautiful in Ukraine as opposed to the traditional Eurocentric attitude of calling nearly ghostly pale/blonde/fair hair/skin as more beautiful than others. I'm reminded of our own songs that speak of the beauty of dark voluminous hair like stormclouds, strong arched brows often compared to bows, dark kajal lined eyes like deer.
Among with dark eyebrows, brown colour of eyes is seen as beautiful too :) it's literally synonyms for "beauty"
I had no idea that Carol of the Bells was Ukrainian. It's one of those Christmas songs I've always known and loved but never thought about the origins. Being British, I love all things dark, gothic and slightly morbid, and this song puts a gothic, dark and mysterious mood to Christmas. That's probably why it's so popular here. I love it very much. Thank you Ukraine.
Нappy that you got to know it!♥️👋🇺🇦
💛💙💛💙💛💙
Most mystical about it, I find, is that it is a pagan song dating from before Christianity in Ukraine, later adapted to become the Bell Carol. I love this fact because it proves how even before the religion, these people were seeing the beauty of the universe and honoring it in what was their New Year celebration, which for Slavic pagans began in the spring, when the shchedryk emerged. ruclips.net/video/Zujdol3FNcY/видео.html&ab_channel=VictorAlexiev this video explains it and just look at these visuals!

A very beautiful voice and interesting choice of traditional Ukrainian music.
en cette nuit de Noël 24 décembre 2023 si tourmentée pour l'Ukraine, le monde écoutera votre Carol merveilleusement chanté !
A little story about this song: 1918-1919 was a short period in our history when was firstly announced independent Ukraine (UNR: Ukrainian Folk Republic), and Germany was the first country who admit it. In that period our country was divided between some political forces, and one of them - anticommunistic - was headed by Symon Petliura, who sent our choir, consisted mostly of members of Kyiv university choir "Dnipro", to Europe in 1919 to tell other peoples that we are separate nation with our own traditions and culture. But earlier in 1916 that choir firstly performed that song with Leontovych´ music version written in the beginning of XX century (lyric was folk and very ancient). The composer was later killed by russian chekist, but it is another story. In the USA Shchedryk was firstly performed in 1922 with the same choir who emigrated there and never returned to Ukraine because it finished her existence for long decades because of Soviet Union. This song became popular in 17 countries and only in 1936 was covered as "Carol of the bells" by P. Wilhousky, who was an american with Ukrainian roots. Some years ago it was found the vinyl disk with earliest English version of this song, it called "Bluebirds" and close by meaning to the original. It was presented in Kamyanets-Podilsky, where Petliura had his government and where he sent the choir with mission to Europe from. And it was sung again with modern "Dnipro" choir, you can look for the records in RUclips.
Thanks for sharing this very interesting story of how this folk song became "the carol" which is so well known today! I find nobody sings it better than Ukrainian choirs, you cannot really copy it. I think it's very important in these times once again to promote Ukrainian culture around the world. Glory to Ukraine, Glory to the heroes
Thank you for the story! and just a couple of days ago after 100 years this song was again performed at the Carnegie Hall in NY. Have tears listening to this song...
Glory to Ukraine! 💛💙
Poland played a significant role in subjugating Ukrainian nationalism. In fact, Ukrainian nationalism rose as a response to Polarization. So why are you only blaming the USSR? Go back to school Basil.
російським чекістам з українським прізвищем
@@blackduck9686 You are talking nonsense. Because, only the Russian Empire and the Bolsheviks were to blame. Ukrainian nationalists at that time were Volodymyr Vynnychenko, Mykhailo Hrushevskyi and Simon Petliura, who fought for independence against the Bolsheviks. Poland did not influence Ukrainian culture at that time. Polonization took place after the release of this song. Polonization also took place in the territories of the ZUNR. Therefore, regarding Shchedryk. The RUSSIANS are to blame. They have been destroying Ukrainian culture and Ukrainians since time immemorial, Mykola Leontovych is a vivid example. You are talking about a completely different time in the history of Ukraine. So go back to school and learn about Ukrainian revolutions)
You are very beautiful lady Eileen i.m very sad that Russians started war against your country and your voice is lovely greetings Janezki88 from Finland ❤

Incredibly beautiful. Much love from America.
Did not know this was originally Ukrainian, so much heart I shouldn't be surprised really
I know cos I'm Ukrainian. The author of the melody was killed by soviet security officer.
@@userid444 He was more of a arranger than an author .
I first heard of this song as "The Ukrainian Bell Choir", as a child when I didn't even know what "Ukrainian" meant. (At the time Ukraine was a provence of the Soviet Union, and I probably would have found that to be off-putting if I had known it at the time). But I liked the melody, and later recognized it when I heard it introduced as "Carol of the Bells".
More recently, my church's handbell choir had played it to start our annual Christmas concert for a few years, until the concert schedule was disrupted by the pandemic. In 2021, we had a scaled back concert, and didn't play "Carol of the Bells". Two months later, when Russia attacked Ukraine, I suggested that we should now play "Carol of the Bells", even though it was out of season, to show solidarity with Ukraine.
❤❤❤

I have loved this melody for a long time but never could have guessed it is of Ukrainian origin. This among other things about Ukraine I've learned only recently. Slava Ukraini! 💙💛

As a Chinese person, I didn't find anything wrong about translating this song into English, because it can make people who don't understand Ukrainian understand the song better. The "virtue signaling" doesn't exist in this song at all. It's just about expressing the beauty of culture. Ms. Eileen, please continue to make more beautiful music works.
Simply sensational. You have the voice of an Angel. Thank you for this amazing performance.
Чудовий голос, чудова співачка, чудова пісня. Подарунок українців всьому світові. Коли був маленький то полюбляв "Один вдома" і навіть не здогадувався що пісня, яку співали в церкві в фільмі була саме "Carol of the bells"
Als ich den Film zum ersten Mal sah, war ich hoch erfreut, dass dieses Lied in der Kirche gesungen wurde. Es trieb mir gleich Tränen in die Augen, weil es so schöne Harmonien hat und weil ich dieses Lied in meiner Jugendzeit gehört hatte, danach lange nicht mehr.
Und kurz danach sangen wir es in unserem Chor, in der ukrainischen Sprache.
Wunderbares Lied, mit schöner zärtlicher Stimme gesungen. Und die Sprache klingt auch wunderschön und weich.
The people who created such a melody have a very deep soul. Such people are unbreakable.
Я...Я...Я...В мене нема ЖОДНИХ СЛІВ аби описати це диво!...Це СПРАВДІ ДИВО!!! Диво Української Нації!!! Ненька-Україна пишається Вами, Олено!!!
Дякую вам... Добрих Вам прийдешніх свят. Радуйся світ син Божий народився.
Thank you so much for this tranlated version even if it make me cry each time I hear it .
Written in 1916 by Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovich and titled “Shchedryk,” the song tells the tale of a swallow flying into a household to proclaim the plentiful year that the family will have. The song's title is derived from the Ukrainian word “shchedryj,” which means “bountiful.”
Or "generous" would be a good translation
@@nickgotvyak5890 generous is a better translation
Thank you for this knowledge.
thank you. I always wondered from where it originated.
Arranged by Mykola Leontovich. The original is a folk chant which predates the conversion of Ukraine to Christianity. And the video pointed this out.
Це те що я шукав останні 5 років! Я так люблю наш Український "Щедрик"! І це найкраше виконання. Дякую!🧡🧡🧡
Very lovely. I didnt know until recently that this song was Ukranian. The harmony is hauntingly beautiful
It is our duty to remember that the author of this wonderful composition, Mykola Leontovych, was killed by the russian chekist. 🇷🇺
Like hundreds of other Ukrainian artists in the soviet union
Sorry, but he was killed by the ukrainian chekist.
@@andreynew3076 But these chekists were following the order of the kremlin.
@@andreynew3076 Ukrainian Chekists? do you even think what you are talking about? The Cheka can be compared to the FSB, they worked for the RSFSR. And what is a Ukrainian Chekist? Perhaps you meant that the Chekist who killed Leontovich was Ukrainian by nationality, but then he might not have known that he killed Leontovich (for example, I will say that Bandera and some other Ukrainian nationalists were killed by Ukrainians who worked for Russia because they But the Ukrainian Chekist does not even have such a concept

I was searching for Ukrainian translated version so I can sing it for my Ukrainian girlfriend. So imagine my shock to learn that it's originally Ukrainian. Well done, very beautiful. To learn that this song has even more to it than I thought is amazing!
The problem is that it's not Christmas song originally. We sing this song on the 13th of January when there was pegan New Year before Christianity. Our Ukrainian composer was performing as a conductor in Carnegie Hall in 1921. After that performance our Ukrainian song was interpreted into English. It was done for populariszing Ukrainian songs but people even thought that it's their own song in the USA.

Thanks so much susan, hope u're doing great!
Po ukraińsku brzmi to sto razy lepiej. Teraz ta melodia będzie mi chodzić po głowie.
To brzmi pięknie w każdym języku

To prawda, bracie.
Пісня бомба, а вбрання просто неймовірно личить, буду чекати ще колядок))))
Thank You, @SplendentEileen, for creating & sharing this! Your voice is beautiful, this Ukrainian song is a magical gift 🌍💝
I had no idea! I thought it was a traditional English carol. So beautiful, it's always been one of my favorite Christmas songs.
вона не різдвяна та не колядка
All love to Ukraine 💖 Thank you for a wholesome song

Loved singing this song as a child back in Ukraine! Slava Ukraine! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
O wow ... Meryy Xmas to you and all your family xxx Thankyou for this divine version of this song
Аж мороз по шкірі... Пісня переносить мене у дитинство, у новорічні свята, у родину... Одразу відчуваю запах морозного повітря і чую, як рипить сніг під ногами.. вже темна пора і дітвора біжить додому, всі, як сніговики - обліплені снігом, змерзли, але щасливі... Дякую за гарну пісню і спогади.. Слава Україні!
