Here’s an original song I wrote and performed in Old Spanish, this time about the adventures of Rodrigo Díaz, better known by his nickname “El Cid”, during the Reconquista of Spain against the Moors in the 11th Century. The text is based on the Cantar De Mio Çid written some time in the 12th or early 13th Century. It’s an epic piece of writing by an anonymous author, which describes in great detail the legendary deeds of El Cid. The name “El Cid” itself is from the Arabic honorific title “as-Sayyid” translating roughly as “The Master”. El Cid ended up fighting for the Moors against other Moors vying for power in Spain at one point in his military career, having been exiled by King Alfonso for fighting with his enemies in a domestic political struggle. Despite being outcast, El Cid recognised King Alfonso as the rightful king and vowed to win back his reputation with the king. Through his military endeavours, he proved his worth, taking many lands back from the Moors, most notably Valencia, which he then successfully defended against an enormous Moroccan army. This is my attempt to condense the story of El Cid up to the taking of Valencia. My intention is exclusively to teach history and languages through song. I do not condone, endorse or seek to glorify violence. I hope you enjoy the song! Please leave a comment, like the video and subscribe if you’d like to see more! You could also donate at buymeacoffee.com/theskaldicbard. Many thanks for helping the channel in whatever way you’re able to. Lyrics in the description.
@@kemtpesmatic1584 it is hard to do it, it is right, but : Egypt has already become a highly centralized state since beginning, it had abundant resources and the ruler gathered power well, so no matter how higher Aristocrats changed, the people actually still serve everyone as their god, no matter who conquered Egypt, Romans, Greeks, “Mild” Religion, they become the Egyptians in the end. So technically, it is very difficult to set Reconquest in Egypt.
@@kemtpesmatic1584 (Personal Opinion) Technically it still have chance, if the reconquest success, the leader did not fall into the terrible circle of Egyptian history, they learn the Western Europeans, more specifically U.K., started the limitation of the central state, but on condition that first, the main religion (A so-called “mild” Religion) in Egypt must have movement like Reformation, or like the founding father of Modern Turkey Kemal, separated the Temple and State, so that the Religion will not kidnap the people’s normal life. But if it cannot work, maybe just wish the Christians could get the multiple in the state so that the political compromises could be form. So current situation in “Mild” Religion world need authoritarian regime or military regime to force the state separate the temple, but the hand of violence is not good for long term, if the violence was loosen, the people under such domain will be like sand, falling on the ground, and then the most violent one will succeed in the end, so this is the reason how ISIS showed up and gather power. Second, When the Temple and State separated, since the Egypt had a long history of Centralized state, it might better started with Feudalism, letting the people getting control for some regions, cultivate the Spontaneous Order, and on the meanwhile weaken the central states. When the time is right, the election limitation could be lightened, so that it could form up mostly a society of citizens, then step by step to the Republic Kingdom Rule. Finally, which is the most important, DO NOT anti-Free Market. As for this, you could check the satellite photographs between North and South Korea, one is keeping the Free Market and welcome capitalism, another is total anti-market and anti-capitalism, you could identify by yourself. This is my personal opinion, maybe still too Idealistic, hope it helps you.

He was foolish to be so loyal to a king who did not duly appreciate it but he would have been a bigger fool to turn against his own land. In the end, Rodrigo was a man of honor and a patriot.

Sehr geehrter Skaldenbarde, jetzt bin ich überrascht, altspanisch geht auch noch, ich kannte germanisch, althochdeutsch, altschwedisch, alt- und mittelenglisch, gotisch, Latein und griechisch von Ihnen, was sowieso schon sehr viele Sprachen sind. Aber jetzt auch noch Altspanisch. Sie stecken wirklich voller Wunder. Grandioses Lied, wie immer sehr schön sich anzuhören. Solche Lieder sollten im Radio laufen, statt den heutigen Liedern. Ich weiß ja nicht ob Sie Pelayo kennen, aber dazu könnten Sie eventuell auch ein Lied schreiben. Oder eines über spanische Inquisition, den in Dokus werden die Inquisitoren immer böse dargestellt, ob Sie nicht ein Lied schreiben könnten, welches die Inquisition aus der geistlichen und nicht der weltlichen Sicht zeigt. Ich danke Ihnen mal wieder für ein sehr gelungenes Lied. Hochachtungsvoll, Bonifatius von Friesland
Hallo, vielen Dank für die freundlichen Worte. Ich habe Pläne für ein Lied über Pelagius. Über die Inquisition hatte ich noch nicht nachgedacht, aber ich werde versuchen, mir dazu etwas einfallen zu lassen! Vielen Dank für deine Unterstützung
Good idea, Don Pelayo is a National Hero. Recently there had been debates on the origins of Pelagius. The statue that honors him is more like a Chieftain dressing of a Celtic Tribe (Gallaeci) and his name is not germanic or germanic Latinized (Reccared-Reccaredus for example) About Inquisition thats true, it was greatly exaggerated, there had been more executions in revolutionary France in a few years than the execution by the Spanish Inquisition from 1478-1808
The songs about the Spanish Inquisition are in Latin not Spanish. The themes are simple. We must be vigilant to retain the light of the truth else we are plunged into the darkness of the abyss. This is a very hard argument to refute.
Wowww!! Another epic gem 💎 thank you for your music and share of historical knowledge! Spanish reconquista is a very important part of European history. Consider creating a song based on Nikiphoros Fokas and his reconquista of the Creta and the East. God bless you and all the fans of your work!
I just simply adore all about El Cid and this song fits so perfect and sounds so good plus i like the accent and the language. Keep it up I can’t wait for the next song and take care! 😁
Absolutely loved the song, the only qualm I have is that there is no mention of when he fought for the taifa of Zaragoza and won the loyalty and honor of both Christians and Moors
What a banger. The landscapes of the past are vast to explore - honour to him that traverses them! There is much to see, and much to be heard. Thank you for composimg this. Isn't history colourful?

Interesting how "arrancar" used to mean "to defeat" rather than it's present meaning, which is possibly still related, meaning "to tear off."
In Italian we have arrancare that means to struggle to walk. I suppose the etymology is a term that means simply "struggle".
Why is Bleach's "Arrancar" the first thing that comes to mind? I've watched too much anime
@@celeridad6972Lol.
It also means to jolt. Either or Spanish needs improvement or your English.
Definitely hear much more Latin relation with French and, Especially, Italian with Old Spanish
Great experiment sir!

Can you please do a song about the fall of Eastern Roman Sicily one day? As a Sicilian who loves my Roman roots, it would be awesome.
