Cover of Weep for Manetheren, from Amazon's The Wheel of Time. Vocals and instrumental by Hildegard von Blingin', lyrics/translation in collaboration with Bernadette Banner.
It's been an age! Thank you all for your patience since my last video. It means the world to me that you still come back for more, and I do appreciate every kind comment you leave. This channel remains a passion project that I do when my day job allows time, though I'm happy to say that I have two completed Bardcore covers waiting in the wings. Also, I have an instrumental version of this that I might share if there seems to be enough interest. Let me know if you'd like to hear it!
This project was done in collaboration with the incomparable Bernadette Banner, who originated the idea and spearheaded the translation into Old Tongue. Please check out her video series covering her creation of Moiraine's iconic look from the Wheel of Time show! This song was created for the reveal in part 3.

Lyrics:
Conden iro sa muadniey a fel daden
Veshan daine dyu ir mamen
Al'dhol daes dalae vid daishar
Laada culieb, laada culieb
Denanen al'Manetheren
Ghueth ni al'shar al'Aemon
Soutak ni Manetheren
Laada culieb, laada culieb
Sa dhol sorbe ko'shar
Gaen al'Tarendrelle
Rafane al Caldazar
Ti lendha maral
Inde dhol nolvae
No disain isharane
Dyu rahien al'tarmon'nag
Shar sain duadhe, shar sain duadhe
Denanen al'Manetheren
Ghueth ni al'shar al'Aemon
Soutak ni Manetheren
Laada culieb, laada culieb
English (Not a direct translation):
We walk the footsteps of our fathers
The trails blazed by our mothers
They bought the land with their blood
Long ago, long ago
Sing of Manetheren
Weep for the blood of Aemon
Cry for Manetheren
Long ago, long ago
In the land where the first blood runs
Across the Tarendrelle
Flew the Red Eagle
Destined to fall
No ground was given
But they were betrayed
By dawn on the last day
The waters were blood
Sing of Manetheren
Weep for the blood of Aemon
Cry for Manetheren
Long ago, long ago

This was SUCH a joy to get to work on with you! It came out even more beautifully than I ever could have imagined! 😍😍
Thank you Bernadette! I'm so glad we found a common ground for our channels, since it's no secret that I've followed your work since before mine even existed. :P Always in awe of what you do!
I just saw the silhouette from your new video and this one and I knew this was preplanned! Wow!
This is the best cross-over episode ever!
I love how the two vids are one top of each other in my subscribed list, where the similarities could be seen immediately
Two of my fave channels collab for one of my fave book series I read as a teen?! GEEKING OUT!
Excuse me?? She can sing AND draw? Some people are just hogging all the talent smh
Just like the real Hildegard von Bingen
@@gdhuertas07 The real Hildegard was also a mystic, theologian and philosopher... I'm not saying that Hildegard von Blingin' is not... Maybe we just don't know it yet?
You know thats not only talent but a bloody lot of hard work?
@@Skullpainting thanks for writing that! Many people seem to forget that painting (and drawing) is a skill you can learn. Yes talent maybe makes it easier in the beginning, but never the less to be really good at it you have to practice A LOT! (like with every craft/skill!)
Mom said it's my turn with the talent
Just reading the books now and absolutely delighted that the world's greatest gleewoman has brought this to life.
I love that, thank you! I admit I haven't read the books, but my dad has read them all. He started when they first came out, and I was in the bookstore with him the day he found out Robert Jordan died. I heard his anguished cry from across the room. D:
@@Hildegardvonblingin I’m pretty sure that we all felt that way. It was hard to read those last few books. But Sanderson did him justice.
@@Hildegardvonblingin Did You maybe read "Witcher" book series? I'm not suggesting anything but You know... Wolven Storm is really a lovely song...
Thom would be so proud.❤❤❤
@@mreyes3543 Jordan was the ancient master that inspired Sanderson -the chosen one, to take up the masterquill when he fell. And now when the battle is over he rules the kingdom as a prosperous and good king.
Weep for Manetheren, and Weep for how the WoT show has bastardised and desecrated Jordan's legacy
If I hadn't read the title I could have mistaken it for a Celtic Woman song in Gaelic or something similar. Amazing! Simply amazing!
Haha, Old Tongue certainly has an interesting collection of sounds!
Robert's books certainly have used various cultures in his books especially celtic culture especially like using the name Tuatha'an, the way of the leaf, very similar to the gaelic name tuatha de danann which we would call leprechauns.
@@michelleg7 the Tuatha Dé were not leprechauns, the Tuatha Dé were the celtic deitys, essentially the gods. Not leprechauns at all.
@@michelleg7 Tuatha Dé Danann literally translates in old Irish to "Tribe of the Gods". Leprechaun is leipreacháin.
@@michelleg7 I believe the Christianisation of Celtic culture confounded the Tuatha amongst a pagan folk lore ensemble, but outside of those bounds WindexHero seems more accurate to the internal theological roots.
Yesssssss! Love that you two worked together. The dress, the drawing, and the music are all GORGEOUS!
That and the song
Whitney Avalon too? What is this, a crossover episode?
It is an absolute surprise and joy to know that two artists that I hold in such high regard worked together to create such a beautiful gift! Thank you, to both of you! As to patience-- Hildegard, you're not fast food. You're like an astonishingly fine wine, full of depth and surprisingly tantalizing sounds. Apologies for comparing you to something edible.
Oh gosh haha, that made my day though, thank you! There's always a pressure to make content quickly, but I so appreciate when people understand that the process takes time.
@@Hildegardvonblingin ❤
Rest assured, it's appreciated! "Can"t wait until the next one! Until then, this will surely be looped until my friends threaten my stereo's life again.
The bard hath return’d once more to our glorious land of ThouTube. We look forward to more renditions of classic pieces such as this
Here! Here!
Hehehehehe “thoutube”
Technically it's Theetube but nvm
ThouTube hahaha
Thoutube or theetube, which one is right? I would love to use the old name instead of youtube
These books have had such an impact on me over so many years of my life that I genuinely shed a tear for the fate of an imaginary kingdom whilst listening to your song.
DEAREST, RISE FROM THINE BED! HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN OF BARDCORE HATH RETURNED WITH ANOTHER BANGER!
On one hand it's sad that Your songs come out so rarely... but on the other hand every one of them feels truly special. Every new release is like the small celebration followed by the months of listening to that new piece of art. Quality over quantity.
P.S. I would really love to hear "Carpet Crawlers" in Your interpretation.
Its quality over quantity what makes this channel successful
This song just feels like something Robert Jordan would have loved.
I'm sorry... _what?_ I subscribed because of the Bardcore cover of "Somebody That I Used to Know" and suddenly today I see in my feed "Weep for Manetheren."
"That can't be right" I say to myself as I re-read the title. But lo and behold... 'tis true!
I'm currently on my third re-read of the series and this is a delight to behold. Well done.
Oh man, it's gorgeous
Thank you so much!
Thank you for this blessed gift. ♥️
As both a fan of the wheel of time and bardcore this truly is the the greatest crossover
When the world needed her most, she came back
Sound the bells! We have a new song from Hildegard!!!!
Happy Easter, Hildegard! Thank you for this unexpected gift!
Happy Easter to you as well!
Was not expecting a WoT drop. Love it.
No idea what the original material is, but as always your covers are SO beautiful.
Maybe do some historical non-pop pieces?
Thank you! The original was a short song the characters sang a cappella in Amazon's Wheel of Time show.
I'm always keen on exploring different songs, be they covers from different genres or actual historical stuff. :)
@@Hildegardvonblingin there are plenty covers already but you really should do Greensleeves. i bet it would be awesome with your voice and style.
@@nobody_0815 There are so many covers out there of “Greensleeves” and “What Child Is This?” already, you need to search it.
She made "O Virtus Sapientiae" by original st. Hildegard. It's her least popular song but IMO one of the best.
@@MilornDiester I love that one. I would love it if she did more of those but I also adore her arrangements of more modern tunes
So Amazon is hiring you to do the soundtrack for Season 2, yeah?
This was stunning!
for real, they'd better!
Companies really need good talent seekers. I’m not talking about pencil-pushing agents, but people who have a real passion for a story and want to see it brought to life in the best way possible. Such people will even on their own time go and immerse themselves in the topic and find talented people who are passionate about the topic. In the case of music, talented and passionate people like Hildegard here, or Malukah, or Lindsey Sterling. Malukah for example sings many Skyrim-inspired songs and is so much better than the singers Bethesda actually hired.
So much recent big-budget stuff is just done for profit not art and from the top down. Almost everyone is just a cog in a machine. Wheel of Time, Game of Thrones s7-s8, and Rings of Power all have huge budgets but no soul.
Hollywood needs to start hiring people like Hildegard.
That dumpster fire of a show is not worth artistry like this.
@@QualityPen exactlyyyy if they hired fans of wheel of time for the show and not stupid people who hate wheel of time for the show.then we would have gotten a game of thrones(season 1-3) or peter jackson lotr type wheel of time series it would have been sooo coollll
I approve of this. Thank you. Gorgeous portrayal and presentation. Loved it.
First I saw my girl Bernadette standing there in a dress and pose I recognised, then I saw my girl Hildegard's name attached and knew for sure I was in for a good time. Another masterpiece to add to my favourites, well done :D
Holy crap, wasnt expecting a WoT song cover from you, and in the Old Tongue too! Amazing.
I saw the thumbnail and thought "ooh Bernadette and Ariel are making that costume!" And then i saw Bernadette's video and practically screamed
WOT content? From Hildegard? In the Old Tongue? Sign me up. Tai'shar Manetheren.
ugh this would have been cool before Amazon produced their disastrous version of the show. Oh well, I'm sure in a few years only the books will remain and then I can appreciate this song fully!
Carai an Ellisande! Al Ellisande! Mordero daghain pas duente cuebiyar! Al Ellisande!
Daishar von Blingin'
I'm two books away from finishing the Wheel of Time series and you just made me cry. Thank you for such a hauntingly beautiful song in Old Tongue. 💙🖤
I definitely don’t recommend them show if you enjoyed the books at all
Take your time, if you can. You only get to read it the first time once!
@@erikmac182 I adore the books and I thoroughly enjoy the show.
Same!!! I was not expecting this and am so happy!!
I just finished Book 8 for the first time. This was a welcome surprise.
Blood and bloody ashes, that gave me chills!
I've never clicked on a link so quickly when I saw a notification like this!!! as always, your voice is so beautiful and it feels like my ears has been blessed. thank you so much!!
Thank you so much!
This is niche, but if you did a Nier cover I'd lose my mind! Any song would be amazing, but I think Song of the Ancients would especially suit your voice! This is so beautiful, I'll never get over how crystal clear your voice is ❤
Yeah this would be awesome! I think song of the ancients would be AMAZING in a bardcore cover
Finished reading Eye of the World at almost exactly the time this was uploaded. Bit spooky, I guess The Wheel turns as the Wheel wills.
So this video popped up in my notifs at the exact same time when bernadette banner uploaded the video of her recreating the blue dress xD
Oh waaait I just read the description and its nooot a coincidence! How cool that you are doing a collab ♡
@@Ace.of.Hearts Indeed! You'll find this song plays during the final reveal. All credit to her for the idea of the collaboration.
Firstly Carai an Ellisande!
Secondly that was beautiful, There's more world building here than the amazon show had in an entire series.
the only REAL bardcore channel uploads another banger.
why is this the only real one? cause the others just do instrumentals. Hildegard does the vocals too.
I was not expecting a channel I adore to reference my favorite novel series today.
This is way better than the official WOT soundtrack. Would love to hear such music in the show. Tai'shar Manetheren!
whoaaaaaaaaaaa your voice was made for made up fantasy languages. that was amazing. somehow not understanding a word made this absolutely magical.
I haven't got a f*cking clue what the words mean, but 15seconds in and it's like I've arrived in heaven, or home, all is well and everything is just... beautiful. I think this might have something to do with the dose of cookie I'm consuming right now, I don't know, but I'm going to say it's all Hildegard von Blingin making my heart sing and my head tingle.
this is what magic itself sounds like, you can't convince me otherwise
Thank you for allowing us to hear languages that have not been spoken for centuries!
Yea verily, the fair lady hath returned! I have long awaited to hear thy voice once again, yet the wait was surly worth this masterpiece of musical splendor. I wouldst wait an hundred years more for thee, dear Hildegard! I pray thee, take thy time for whatever thou needs, for thy life is for living, not for responding to the wits and wills of thy audience! Take thy rest; I shall await thy return with humble and patient ears.
Absolutely amazing. Is there any chance these could be on Spotify or some similar platform as well? Would make it easier to loop these.
Thank you! I'm sorry to be an absolutely broken record. I'm working on moving everything to Spotify, but need to remaster some of my older work to bring it up to speed. I'm often torn between doing that work and creating something new. It's certainly on my list, though.
@@Hildegardvonblingin Thanks for the reply, and good to know that Spotify is in the cards for the future. :)
right-click, loop
@@Hildegardvonblingin I listen to your older stuff quite a lot and it all sounds beautiful! IDK what you can mean!
If you want to loop a youtube video you can. Click in the video. You should see a wheel on the top right hand side. Click on the wheel. Click on loop option. Bingo your youtube the loops
Mine lack of object permanence didst villainously connive to suggest that thou and thy works hadst never truly existed, against which argument forlornly stood the record of thy singings. And here hath patience found reward, as a reinforcing piece doth roundly fall 'pon expectant ears. ;TLDR: Very impressive adaptation. Awesome work as usual, and I'm glad to hear you're still at it!
While the WoT show might have disappointed me as a long-time fan of the books, this song absolutely did not. Fantastic. Had me tearing up
Seeing the notifications that you posted a new video I clicked so fast lol! Literally listen to all your songs on your channel like an album when out driving in the countryside. It’s wonderful. My family loves your music to!
I love that it's with you on your road trips! Thank you :)
Sings with the voice of a beautiful siren
With every song, I fall more and more in love with your work
That’s so sweet, thank you!
Oh my goodness, you’re back!!! I listen to your back catalogue all the time, but I missed your new stuff! Glad you’re still producing music. :)))))
Thank you for coming back! It hurt to have to leave the music alone for so many months, but I'm happy to be back at it. There will be plenty more Bardcore in the coming year. :)
Ah, I love both you and Bernadette Banner, what a cool collab! 💕
I can’t stop listening to this…
I haven't seen this show yet, but listening to this makes me want to see it!
It’s a lovely show! The story is a lot of fun and the cast is terrific. Ignore the toxic naysayers (and you’ll run into those) and enjoy the ride!
Of course, it would be even better if they hired the wonderful Hildegarde to work on the music. 😍😍😍💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Season has a few issues, especially around the last episode because they had to go back into lockdown and because the part of the story it adapted was one of the more contentious elements of the early books but it's great
OH MY GOD YOU WORKED ON THIS!?!?! IT'S THE WHEEL OF TIMEEEEE
I was just thinking of you, M'lady. I am glad you are back.
This is certainly a beautiful piece. Milady von Blingin', would you next do us the honour of a rendition of the woes of Lady Luisa of House Madrigal?
If the internet ends tomorrow, it will be worth it just to hear this. Taishar Manetheren!
I’m on the 4th book. Didn’t realize the old tongue was this developed. Wow
Oh hells yes! Amazing as always! Hope to see more collaborations happen between the two of you, this was truly wonderful.
Hi! I love your videos...your voice is beatiful!
I was seriously thinking of begging you to make a video with them, singing some songs from the Wheel of Time...your voice is exactly how I imagined this one character - Thom, - to sound!
Nice to see you again
Fantasy conlang bardcore for Wheel of Time?
Holy nerdception, Batman!
Lyrics/translation in collaboration with Bernadette Banner?? Is there anything that woman *can't* do? omg, two of my favourite talents on RUclips collab-ing on a video. I don't know what to do with this...
While my feelings for the show can only be described as disappointed and bored, this song is wonderful.
I love The Wheel of Time. 😩
It's crazy, for the first time in months, I was in the mood for one of your songs and thought "She hasn't uploaded in a while" Tis truly a blessing from the heavens!
So excited when I was watching Bernadette's part 3 video and your music danced in my ears! So beautiful! Thank you!
Thank you for coming by after! 🙏♥️
IN THE OLD TOUNGE???? crying rn this is beautiful
I haven't seen the show, but I've read the series and this is a beautiful tribute! Thank you so much for performing this!
I love the idea of writing bardcore for a song that is in-universe about a thousand years old.
I love this. The Wheel of Time has always been such an important series to me, and this has done it justice beautifully.
We absolutely love your version of Weep for Manetheren, and even more special since you’ve translated it into the old tongue. ❤️🐍⌛️
This. Is. Amazing!! The pic is cool but the singing and harmony is beyond epic! Awesome job!
Just came over from Burnadette’s video. I’m glad it wasn’t a coincidence that yours and hers popped up on my subscription list next to each other with virtually the same thumbnail.
I'm so late but dang I wasn't disappointed! I was worried this had become a dead channel but huzzah! The queen returns!
Out of the likely 100+ channels I'm subscribed to this one is the only one I have notifications on for
last time i was this early, anne boleyn still had her head.
I came from cornelius link with the curiosity of knowing what you do in you channel.... And i found this. I am right now through the tenth book of wot and this fill my heart with joy. Thanks
PD: Tai'Shar Manetheren
The collab I didn’t know I wanted nor deserved but definitely needed
I want this permanently singing in my head. There's gotta be a chip implant for that.
Wish this was on Spotify so I could play it while running. These are all so good
Thank you so much. My heart is heavy after a cruel betrayal, not love but a betrayal nevertheless.I am healing and music like this is part of the healing process for me. Interesting how Spirit provides.
MY QUEEN!!! Another straight bager!!!!!!
Truly beautiful. Truly inspired. Thank you all for bringing this into existence
One of the reasons I love the internet is because it lets us have a grand view of epic nerds. When they collaborate we end up with legends. 🤣🤣🤣 Honest facination is a blessed thing.
Wow. Goosebumps the entire song. The author died while I was reading this in high school and I'm just now re-reading to finish the series. I've been avoiding internet content for spoilers but what can a song hurt? This is absolutely beautiful.
can someone recommend more music with people who have voices like this? this is ethereal
Eurielle
Diana Rowan
Erutan
Sirenia
She's back!
You illustrated this art too? Just how much talent a person can have? You are incredibly skilled, i love what you do and I will keep coming here whenever you share new masterpieces. 💜
Those harmonies are SO good!! I've been listening to this over and over for like 2 hours lol
Thank you so much! Despite being rather short this one took me a long time, so I appreciate the repeat listens. ❤️
The wheel weaves as the wheel wills.
THE QUEEN HAS RETURNED, Beautiful as per usual!! Thank you
Carai an Caldazar! Carai an Elisande! An Elisande!
this fan is so happy to see these worlds collide ^_^
two of my favorite channels together? What magic is this?
Came for the good music.
*Stayed for the soul cleansing.*
Have you ever considered doing some of Tolkiens songs? I really, REALLY think you could pull off the elf ballads.
Glad I hunted this channel down again after switching accounts, and I've got to say I'm floored by your effort on this one, which seems weird to say given how much effort and passion goes into all your videos. This one feels extra special, though. Fantastic rendition as always!
Absolutely LOVED it - I always get myself wanting to learn the old tongue when I’m reading the books!
so so so good, loved this part in the show, awesome to hear it this way
my favorite books, two of my favorite RUclips creators, 😭😭😭😭
♥️🙏
@@Hildegardvonblingin it's going to be looped for the next two weeks, frfr. Thank you for your beautiful work!
Got this video above Bernadette's in my subscriptions and i was like 'what a coincidence those dresses are almost identical!.. wait'
