jen malá připomínka: v angličtině se autoři označují předložkou "by", ne "from"

[lumajs]

@MartaEzis Chtěl jsem původně napsat, že mě 10 let v USA nestačilo k 100% odnaučení tohoto bohemismu, ale musím nesouhlasit. Nikde jsem tuhle chybu neudělal. V popisu je "from ... the cycle", míním z cyklu symfonických básní, což určitě nemůže být "by the cycle", ;-) ačkoliv bych nedal krk za to, že se to přesně takhle dá říct.

@Slovejnc All people in the video are regular folks except for the nice girl at 0:10 :-) which is Ewa Farna, a top young Polish-Czech singer.

@EspressoFan4Life i think it's because Samuel Cohen was inspired by this song when he wrote Israel anthem

@Rogvaivful How I understand, you think it's song about world. No it's song about river. In song ocean doesn't exist because, end of Vltava is in Labe (Elbe). But if you try find parts on song on river, almost everything is buried in dams.

Vltava are from two springs, after it become stronger and stronger run down in valleys, to Prague become at 7:00

Beautiful music but the images are terrible.

@lumajs I don't understand your language, but I appreciated your posting, which, by its photos, sustains my idea, suggested by Smetana's compositin, of a parallelism betweet the river course and the Dreation and also the human life. "In the beginning the Word already existed" (John 1: 1). Yes, the Word already existed in the previous silentness; You put the silent lake. The spring become a river. Appears the human. But where is the ocean? The Reconnection into the all?
