Laulupidu 2007

[tvi12]

"Kungla rahvas" is translated to english like people of Kungla (Kungla is like city of old age- very old and good age). ELAGU EESTI

[bomos4048]

Could anybody give a translation of "Kungla Rahvas" lyrics into English or German ? We want to sing this song with our choir, and do not know what we are singing (except of the word "eesti" ;-)

[janeaunstenfan]

It's very hard to translate "Kungla rahvas" because there are many words in local dialect and in english there just isn't equivalent(I hope I used the right word) word for those words. For exsample "murumaal" dosn't have any translation.

[bomos4048]

Thank you. Meanwhile I got a raw translation from someone else.

[Viilutaja]

Pole olemas enam ilusamat laulu kui Lüdigi "Koit" - ihukarvad tõusevad püsti, kui seda laulma hakatakse.

[karu0tt]

Thanks for sharing that!

Emotions were maximum - beautiful, powerful, touching...

[s0erd]

I think all of us in the procession saw those "ladies" on the roof... And this clip was taken near us, as they´re all singing "Kauneim linn on Eestis Tartu" (Tartu is the most beautiful city in Estonia)

[ameliejonathan]

Tartu is beautiful but Tallinn is much better :) !

Anyway we can agree that Estonia is a wonderful place to be ! Nägemist !

[liina000]

Tallinn is bigger and more crowded, i hate the parking system also.

[liina000]

Thank you for sharing this. The Song Festival is one of the longest and most powerful tradition in Estonia.

bth. The best part was the last part when song "Palve" was sung- twice yesterday. Do you have a copy of that ? :) Perhaps you could put it up here.

Thank you! :) Have a nice summer :)
