NEW ROMAN SONG: “Evocati’s Pledge” ua-cam.com/video/munrj4ZbAns/v-deo.html DISCLAIMER: Yes I know, the "ae" on Britanniae is a diphthong in Classical Latin, but I broke down the diphthong into two separate vowels to support the melody, all cultures do that when singing when the melody requires it, and Latin poets did break down diphthongs into separate vowels when prosody demanded it so please don't blitzkrieg the comments about ae, thank you, K love you bye ❤️💞😘. (That said I'm not Latinist so if there's any actual errors, please let me know if you know Latin do a good degree and I'll mention the errors below.) You can buy this track and more of my music here: faryafaraji.bandcamp.com/album/voices-of-the-ancients-vol-ii Music and vocals by Farya Faraji. Please keep in mind that this isn’t reconstructed Roman music, it’s entirely modern music using modern compositional techniques with an Ancient Roman theme. The instruments used are all ancient Romans ones from Antiquity: the aulos, lyre and pan flute. The pronunciation I used is the historical pronunciation of Latin as it was in Antiquity, which we call the Classical Pronunciation. The lyrics are from the RMRS repertoire of marching songs; the RMRS are a reenactment group specialising in Ancient Roman military reconstructions and drills. I wanted the song to turn the lyrics into a story of Roman watchmen reminding themselves why their difficult duty was worth it: it begins as a lament of their condition, but as the melody rises, the watchmen remember why their suffering is-for the good of the Empire. I wanted the lyrics to almost work like the Night’s Watch vow in the Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones universe for those who know what I’m talking about, the parralel being obvious since Hadrian’s Wall inspired the latter. This is my first song in which I took account of Latin’s vowel length and stress accent, two fundamental factors of the language. Latin had short vowels and longer vowels, as well as a different stressed syllable depending on each word. My previous songs completely disregarded these elements, but I wanted to start incorporating them into my songs, and this is my first attempt. Since we have little information about Roman music, I decided to base the language to song transposition on Ancient Greek musical rules, which we have much more information about. For the stress accent, ancient Greek practice demanded that the stressed syllable be sung as the highest note within the word-other syllables were to be sung either with a lower pitched note, or at least the same note as the stressed syllable’s. For short vs long vowel distinction, which Greek also had back then, there were two options: either long vowels were held as a longer note, or they were sung with melismas, in other words, more than one note by syllable. Both could also be used, but I only used the latter option. It was impossible to construct a melody with the kind of rythm I wanted by making all short vowels short notes and long vowels longer notes, therefore long vowels are demarcated from the shorter ones through the use of melismas-the long vowels are sung with more than one note on them. The only exception to the transposition of Latin speech is on the last word, Britanniae, the last "ae" being a diphthong in Classical Latin, but I broke down the diphthong into its constituent sub-vowels "a" and "e" (not a and i as most English speaking Latin learners mistakenly believe), in order to support the melody's ending and make it more dramatic. Latin poets would break down diphthongs into separate vowels, as all languages do sometimes when singing. If you want more info on the phonetic aspects of Latin, I highly recomment the polyMATHY channel on UA-cam: m.ua-cam.com/channels/Lbiwlm3poGNh5XSVlXBkGA.html Lyrics in Latin: Semper hic ventī dēserta gelidīs perflant imbribus, Sordet iam pēdiculōsa tunica, madidus nāsus est, Saevē me ūmectat tempestās grandinibus cotīdiē, Cur? Quod est mēum tuērī līmitēs Britanniae! English translation: Here the winds blow over the wasteland with chill showers, Already my tunic is filthy with lice, my nose is running. The savage storm soaks me with hail stones daily, Why? Because it’s my duty to protect the borders of Britain!
as a worthy internet consumer I don't read video introductions or I do it very late. yours are very detailed and explain the decisions made in accordance with the information you have obtained regarding the grammatical and phonetic structure of the Latin language. I consider you a profound connoisseur of the Roman world otherwise you would not have been able to produce songs based on capillary connections. In Italy there are many archives in this sense and some are open to everyone. If you like the Roman world, I invite you to watch Prof. Barbero's lectures. you will find a lot of inspiration. I bet you knew that this piece would have been liked by everyone and would have united many nations in this judgment 😊
I imagine a cavalry auxiliary from Hispania, accostumed to a warm weather. He had to leave behind a young lady he started to love and now he only got his brothers in arms and the gods by his side. Standing in this long wall "will I ever see my land again?" He asks himself
@@βασιλεύς-ζ4λ probably, but I would say that the winds from the deserts made NorthAfrica and Middleast uneasy. Here in Sicily, but also in other parts of Italy, we say that the wind from the south (Scirocco) brings diseases
I wish i were a Hun cavalry archer in Catalonia and had the one of the bravest battle against the bravest enemy. I have a nomad and barbaric soul. I love Turkic cavalry archers and i hate Rome. But i incredibly respect The Rome which is most honorable enemy. Respect from mighty Hunnic Tent to Civil Cowards 🐎🏹
Farya you've out did yourself with this one. The somber lyrics makes you imagine a legionnaire battered by the harsh weather of the British Isles, the relentless Pictish raids, longing for home and yet stalwart in his duty to protect the Roman citizens of the isle from what lies beyond the wall. I think anyone, myself included, can feel the same as this fictional Legionnaire when on long deployments far from home.
Thanks alot! Yeah the lyrics of this one are really beautiful, there’s alot of sadness and lament to them, it must have been a pretty harsh life for those watchmen on the wall
Probably your most underrated Roman-themed composition and definitely an earworm. Awesome lyrics, vocals and musicianship, VT SEMPER. GRĀTIĀS PLŪRIMĀS.
@@ronnieman87 Welsh in large part were the holdouts of Romano-Britons, so I'd say you can take it, perhaps even more than the Italians who's roman heritage has been polluted by Ostrogoths and Lombards.
Definitely a top tier Roman song that isn’t a battle themed one. Unique songs such as these gets the imagination flowing like the wild British winds. Keep it up!
Can you imagine the opening scene of an Agricola's campaign-based film with a zenithal view of a Roman camp in the cold land of Britannia and this music as soundtrack? Amazing job man!
do you talk of an frontier army encampment or a civil dwelling like a Villa Rustica? or perhaps the master of a Villa Rustica is playing host to a cohort encampment on his grounds? either way powerful image you conjure with how you phrased comment
Agricola's campaigns took place in 80 ad circa. Hadrian's wall was built in 122 ad. It doesn't make any sense to refer this song to agricola's legions. There would have been no "limes britanniae" to defend, no walls at least. Maybe a few isolated forts, like ardoch. I'm studying this in university, so I just wanted to clarify:)
What is most striking is how history repeats itself, always the same, that legionary could be a soldier today, feeling the same discouragement, pain, sense of being lost. Nothing has changed, everything repeats itself...
@@faryafaraji I dont know if you have read the Eagles of the Empire book series, but ifyes, maybe a song about the good old lads Cato and Macro. and if u have not read the series, i highly suggest reading it, as im sure u will like it
Your music Farya. Please don't look up my view counts for your music. It's embarrassing. Your talent just runs and so deep. And it keeps inspiring me to learn more languages, and your music has been a fundamental cornerstone of that. Thank you so much Farya.
Your "Sons of Mars" song is the first place on my spring listening statistics (UA-camMusic) :) First time an indie composer entered my top 5, and even took first place. And also, Hadrian Wall song looks AMAZING
I don't know how you manage to immerse so consistently in the different cultures and languages that you make your songs about, this one really gives me the vibe of Britannia, of a rainy and gloomy land, its Celtic tribes and Hadrian's wall. Your work is amazing.
God I just love your Roman music, can't literally stop listening to this playlist on repeat. Both my wife and daughter are annoyed when I start chanting these songs hahaha. JUST LOVE IT.
Not only is this such a beautiful song, but it truly helps me calm myself through everyday life. When times are tough, I feel I can just turn to this and your other wonderful work. I thank you wholeheartedly for this Farya, gratias ❤
This anthem of the Legions of Rome is especially touching to me as a Romanian (so, Roman), because our other ancestors, the Dacians, were conscripted into auxiliary cohorts and the first Dacian cohorts were stationed at Vindolanda (Hadrian's Wall). It is also said that the Dacians from those cohorts brought the Balkan instrument of bagpipes into Scotland, but this may be just a myth. All the soldiers of Imperator's legions SALUTE YOU!
I really appreciate your work as you explained it in the description. I find your efforts to respect ancient vocalic quantity and your investigation in greek music rather interesting. A true pleasure.
Amazing as always ❤️ I just wanted to say in addition, that I live in Hungary, very close to Aquincum, an ancient Roman city, and I always listen to your Roman songs when I go there. Your songs add so much to the feeling.
Non riesco a fare a meno di pensare, che in una notte di inverno ai confini del mondo, un giovane legionario romano sia stato di guardia sul Vallo di Adriano. Probabilmente spaventato da quella nuova vita nell’esercito, trova il coraggio di andare avanti ogni giorno grazie all’aiuto dei suoi compagni. Tutti insieme, uniti da quella immensa patria che è Roma. Con i loro cuori che battono per un’idea, una civiltà unica al mondo. Quella notte una voce inizia cantare questa canzone tra i fuochi del bivacco, poi una seconda, una terza, fino a diventare centinaia. Il giovane legionario per quella notte non prova più paura perché tutti insieme riescono a riscaldarsi in un abbraccio che non conosce confini. Quella notte il gelo della Britannia era diventato sopportabile.
che bel pensiero! erano uomini e ragazzi come noi adattati a quella realtà e si sentivano un popolo è anche grazie alla paura e al freddo di quel ragazzo se l'urbe diventò orbe, la città si sovrappose al mondo, ai tempi l'organizzazione umane venivano rappresentate dalle città o dalle tribù, non dalle nazioni.
This is so….PERFECT!! I thank you again Farya for everything you let us hear, wonderful minutes that certainly cost hours or days of work and invaluable passion on your part and to help keep these ancient languages alive.❤️
Personal this is better than your other songs of Rome. This sounds a lot more personal and real then others. I can see a Roman soldier actually sing this. Keep up the good work! 👍😊
I absolutely love this! What an excellent addition to your Roman music. I love how soft, almost lament filled it is and still remains so tough and empowering.
da italiano ho sempre cercato della musica che rispecchiasse l'impero più famoso e misterioso al mondo ma sfortunatamente in giro si trovano solo testi poco plausibili e estremamente fantasy ma finalmente ho trovato qualcosa di davvero molto bello e abbastanza plausibile per l'epoca. davvero complimenti per tutto, spero ci siano altre canzoni riguardo l'impero romano così da avere nuovamente i brividi per la magnificenza
Roma il più grande e glorioso impero della storia, la grandezza, la potenza, la magnificenza e la gloria di ROMA EST AETERNA, ROMA INVICTA ET LUX MUNDI 💪💪
After listening to Norse music from creators like Gealdýr, I've been on the search for something similar relating to the Roman Empire. I'm glad I've found this, because this is what I've been looking for. Thank you. You got a new sub :D
I threw this one on at work yesterday when it started raining and let me tell you, it hit very different. Something about doing an oil change with the wind whipping outside your bay, the rain beating on the windows like its sole purpose is to get in... all while a Roman regales us about his time spent keeping a watchful eye over Britannia. This one was really good. Maybe a remaster of some of your older works is in order.
Wish we had these in my day of reenacting. I'd travelled with our Legio IX and Legio IIII (Flavia Felix) all over Europe. Croatia and Italy were the best, Germania was okay. Spend a few weeks near Scotland in the winter and you soon miss the sun and wine of Dalmatia!:) excellent music! You've earned a new subscriber. Big 🫡 from a 20yr vet, Aquilifer, Legio IX Hispana.
_I love this masterpiece_ 😍 _And I have a suggestion to make a similar one on the _*_Wall of Gorgan_*_ the 2nd longest wall (200 Km long) ever built in history where Sassanid soldiers are posted to save the empire from the White Hunnic and Göktürk raids._
❤❤❤😍 absolutely love this song it’s like a ancient ballad from Roman Empire , I listen to this when I paint miniatures a truly lovely masterpiece, be proud of your art . Keep up the good work
"Neither profitable nor glorious, the job would have break me apart long ago if not the goal of protecting my family, my people, and the Empire." - Ordinary Roman soldier
Man, I am trying to learn Latin on Duolingo. It would be cool to hear from people like you and The Metatron teaching the classical pronunciation of the words
Your music, not just the roman one, brings back my love to history, sparks a religious need in me, makes me think about all the great and good people who doed that we do not know about and thinking about them makes me feel more human... I am aware you mix dofferent styles historical and not, but that weird link between the old and the new in your music makes the ancients and medieval people feel closer to us somehow... I know not all are religious, but as I am... I hope they are all in a better place and look at work of people like you with happiness that someone makes others think about them again...
Hello :D I memorised this song for fun and I sang it for all my friends on a school trip. They absolutely f#$%ing loved it, basically marked the whole trip. Thank you so much for blessing this earth with this song :D Ave Roma
Great one. In a way, it feels sad, but also, somewhat solemn. I can really feel the questioning inside of the Roman soldiers - is it all worth it, the mud, the rain, the deaths? Reminds me a lot of the late Western Roman empire as a whole - the point where aristocracy became decadent enough not to give the slightes of care for it's inferiors. Why are we doing this? For the glory of Rome! Why are we risking our lives? For the glory of Rome! Why are we fighting? For the glory of Rome! Milites Romani, vestra gloria aeterna erit! [Soldiers of Rome, your glory will be eternal!] _Non. Omnia gloria Caesaris erit._ [No. All glory will belong to Caesar/emperor.]
The shield that the soldier is carrying in the picture seems to date from the early years of the fading times, when the stars still shone brightly on the people and world of the Eternal City. Little did they know that there would be a great fading of the Western world, heralded by relentless incursions and attacks by those not named as friends of the world among the guardians of the frontiers, leaving behind only shadows, memories and stagnation... Unless he is a member of the Auxilia...
I Love your channel and your talent,Love from Pakistan and Afghanistan please if you can, Make a music on Kushan Empire that would be great, bactrian and indian mixed sort of.
This song is soooo good, so damn powerful, why there is just one stanza? Please, more latin song, and PLEEEEAAAASE more stanzas in them, it's to too few stanzas for such damn GOOD songs!

Agricola was a Gallo-Roman, from Gallia Narbonensis. In his troops, he had a lot of Romanized Gaulish auxiliary and soldiers.
Agricola's campaigns took place in 80 ad circa. Hadrian's wall was built in 122 ad. It doesn't make any sense to refer this song to agricola's legions. There would have been no "limes britanniae" to defend, no walls at least. Maybe a few isolated forts, like ardoch.

_And I have a suggestion to make a similar one on the _*_Wall of Gorgan_*_ the 2nd longest wall (200 Km long) ever built in history where Sassanid soldiers are posted to save the empire from the White Hunnic and Göktürk raids._
I love your Roman work.
One of your more underrated gems!
I just read the description and can't stop wondering your dedication to music. This is great!
Thanks alot!
all of your Roman/byzantin music are just the so beautiful and give us a travel in the times
Best Roman music you've done so far, such a vibe
I just want to say that I can't stop listening to your music. It's all too good
Amazing, keep up the great work, much love from the US
❤❤❤😍 absolutely love this song it’s like a ancient ballad from Roman Empire , I listen to this when I paint miniatures a truly lovely masterpiece, be proud of your art . Keep up the good work
Sua música é muito épica, gosto bastante de um grande fã.
Oh what a masterpiece ♥️
Roma Invicta !
The words sound remarkably close to WH Auden's "Roman Wall Blues".
I love you brother.

"Neither profitable nor glorious, the job would have break me apart long ago if not the goal of protecting my family, my people, and the Empire." - Ordinary Roman soldier
Nearly a quarter of viewers have liked this, and with good reason
Man, I am trying to learn Latin on Duolingo. It would be cool to hear from people like you and The Metatron teaching the classical pronunciation of the words
Back here after a long while, still as beautiful as the last time.
I really enjoyed this.
the roman songs you upload here always fill my heart
Farya, this is your best Roman music to date... it's just... so gorgeous
We need more of sad/melancholic ancient songs please!!!!
Your music, not just the roman one, brings back my love to history, sparks a religious need in me, makes me think about all the great and good people who doed that we do not know about and thinking about them makes me feel more human...
I am aware you mix dofferent styles historical and not, but that weird link between the old and the new in your music makes the ancients and medieval people feel closer to us somehow...
I know not all are religious, but as I am... I hope they are all in a better place and look at work of people like you with happiness that someone makes others think about them again...
Your awesome works and incomparable explanations leave me speechless!!! Chapeau bas!
Finalmente un po' di musica rilassante per aiutarmi a dormire grazie Farya😊
Fantastic as always. It's always a good day when you upload.
Hello :D I memorised this song for fun and I sang it for all my friends on a school trip. They absolutely f#$%ing loved it, basically marked the whole trip. Thank you so much for blessing this earth with this song :D
Ave Roma
Another beautiful song Allways makes my day
Man, you are good with this musics. Keep this beautifulwork, It's very nice
Picturing a Roman soldier from a warm province like Hispania or Africa stuck with what they think must be the worst posting ever
Great description of weather of Britain lol
Good song, it gives me some roman atmosphere in my village. Thank you)
This is magnificent...! Give us an ancient greek paian next! Please! Oh great bard!
Great one. In a way, it feels sad, but also, somewhat solemn. I can really feel the questioning inside of the Roman soldiers - is it all worth it, the mud, the rain, the deaths? Reminds me a lot of the late Western Roman empire as a whole - the point where aristocracy became decadent enough not to give the slightes of care for it's inferiors.
Why are we doing this? For the glory of Rome! Why are we risking our lives? For the glory of Rome! Why are we fighting? For the glory of Rome! Milites Romani, vestra gloria aeterna erit! [Soldiers of Rome, your glory will be eternal!]
_Non. Omnia gloria Caesaris erit._
[No. All glory will belong to Caesar/emperor.]

是啊，同感，有一种极盛时期的苍凉感
@@Renhaoquan 尤其是守城牆的羅馬士兵那種蒼涼
i can imagine a limitanei singing this song during the Great Conspiracy, facing hordes of Caledonians and Picts and knowing the turmoil on their back
babe wake up, another epic roman music video from farya faraji dropped
The shield that the soldier is carrying in the picture seems to date from the early years of the fading times, when the stars still shone brightly on the people and world of the Eternal City.
Little did they know that there would be a great fading of the Western world, heralded by relentless incursions and attacks by those not named as friends of the world among the guardians of the frontiers, leaving behind only shadows, memories and stagnation...
Unless he is a member of the Auxilia...
I Love your channel and your talent,Love from Pakistan and Afghanistan please if you can, Make a music on Kushan Empire that would be great, bactrian and indian mixed sort of.
Dude how do you come up with such rythms?!
Also we need to rebuild that wall to make Rome great again
