Dead Can Dance - Emmeleia Lyrics

Does anyone know the translation for this? sounds like a mourning chant... I find it beautiful and so misterious

Şu şarkının nasıl yazıldığını, ne anlattığını öğrenmek ve anlamak için neler vermezdim

Aslında şarkı hiç bişey anlatmıyor kelimeler antik Makedon dilinden alıntı ve uydurma anlayacağın bir anlamı yok sözlerin, lakin şarkının adı ise antik Yunanistan'da bir çeşit ayin bir çeşit tiyatral oyundur acı ve trajedi yüklü bir oyun. Bu yüzden şarkı dinleyene hüzün veriyor

@_@ other songs like this??

¿alguien conoce alguna otra canción o canto parecida a esta? ¿Does anyone know any other song like this?

"Emmeleia": The title (in Greek ἐμμέλεια, meaning "gracefulness" or "harmonization") was the name of the grave and dignified dance of tragedy in the theatre of ancient Greece (each dramatic genre featured its own chorus dance, being the emmeleia or emmelīa in tragedy, the kordax or cordax in comedy, and the sikinnis or sicinnis in satyr-play[10]). The "lyrics" derive from Lisa Gerrard's usual glossolalia, but because she had to write down a phonetic version for Brendan Perry to sing along with her, this song sounds much more like a structured language. Written transcriptions exist but no language could be recognised.

Is this a real language?

Yes. It's a form of Hellenic language, related to Greek.

It's Ancient Macedonian, a Hellenic language related to Greek.

Presque tout ce qui nous entoure est une conséquence du renoncement et du chagrin. Les écrits et images sur des murs fissurés et des lucarnes murales qui font mal aux yeux représentent une vérité que personne bientôt ne lira, ni ne regardera plus ! Nous sommes entourés aujourd'hui de marionnettes musiciennes condescendantes et aveuglées par d'autres croyances que nos simples désirs et aspirations .. Il nous reste la possibilité de nous décrasser avec cette musique joyeuse et insouciante !! Merci DCD

Sounds Greek... beautiful

Close. It's actually Ancient Macedonian; which is a relative to Greek. (a Hellenic language)

Even touching your speakers listening to this is majestically harmonical.

¡Hola!, ¿cómo están? Bien es sabido que en las canciones de "jazz" a veces se cantan las canciones sin usar palabras reales sino que más bien la canción es cantada mediante sonidos ininteligibles, sonidos que no significan nada... a esta técnica de canto se le llama #Scat, y es en realidad una improvisación vocal de sonidos que uno, el cantante, hace a lo loco. *¿Esta canción de Dead Can Dance, "Emmeleia", también está cantada en "scat"?*

no aplica en este grupo , ellos fueron a distintos lugares del mundo a recopilar canciones ( muchas son de tribus)

no amigo, lo que hacen se llama glosolalia

excellent...

do you know please this lenguage ?

Lenka Karhanová It’s not any existing language. Just phonetically transcribed random syllables.

@Lenka Karhanová ancient Macedonian. A dead language

@milancelisac is call glosolalia o xenoglosia, it is the fluid vocalization of syllables with no understandable meaning. In current use, both terms differ in that while glossolalia is the babble of non-existent language, xenoglossia is the ability to speak fluently a language that the speaker has never learned

это прекрасно !

WHICH LANGUEGE IS THIS

Osman demiroğlu sanırım yunanca

This was an ancient pagan Hellenic hymn. The language is ancient Macedonian (now extinct). That's why it sounds similar to Greek. Hellenic peoples would dance to this hymn when something tragic or devastating would happen to someone of their tribe.

Avusturalyaca galiba

Googlede çevirdimde hırdavatça diyor

@Osmond S. thanks

Je suis fan, tu as le mot de passe ???? franchement magnifique, tu sors ça d'où ????

Je nous vois bien à une cérémonie secrète avec en fond cette musique
Love love love

Superbe envoûtement

Necesario

It was not a good idea playing Chaos Engine with this music =)

What language is this in? 
Because it's not Greek or Hebrew,is this the Pleiadian dialect? 

Because they're thought to come from the Pleidian constellation

@***** Through meditation and out of body experiences from what a lot of people say. How do so many people believe in "god" when there is absolutely no proof that it exists. 

Something approximate to this could be Orthodox / Greek-Byzantine music by Divna Ljubojevic.

Just to remember, wtf you guys are thinking a year ago, goodbye!

Orthodox chant is different than this. This is closer to Old Roman chant (pre-schism) where the Churches were united, and their music was unlike any still performed, beautiful though "modern" chant may be.

It's glossolalia, the same kind of sounds and rhythm as people talking in tongues.

Actually no. It is ancient Macedonian (a dead language) and is a pagan Hellenic hymn from ancient times, sung or danced during times of tragedy

La voz de Lisa Gerrard es algo indescriptible, solo se que te lleva a algun lugar fuera de este mundo para convertirte en otra persona capaz de explorar lo mas profundo que hay en ti... No importa el idioma o el lenguaje en el cual canta.... lo que importa es la energía que transmiten cada uno de los sonidos que sus canciones emiten.

Lo que quieres decir es que tuviste una experiencia intrapsiquica que te llevo a visualizarte a ti mismo fuera del dominio de la mente racional?  Si es asi, estoy totalmente de acuerdo, ya que sentí lo mismo al escucharla :P
- Saludos.

Totalmente... puedo decir que la experiencia fue intrapsiquica y que me llevo a explorar un mundo subjetivo que siempre esta alli pero que solo la voz de ella logra despertar. Saludos

@Josué Vera Azar Totalmente... puedo decir que la experiencia fue intrapsiquica y que me llevo a explorar un mundo subjetivo que siempre esta alli pero que solo la voz de ella logra despertar. Saludos

Something comes to my head when i listen to this, something wierd... and freaks me out...

@Osmond S. Actually, no I am greek and in school our ancient laguage is totaly diferent from that

@ΚΩΣΤΑΣ ΜΑΝΑΣ this is a form of Hellenic, I assure you. But its not greek. Plus it probably had more grammar cases back then. Modern Greek has only about 4.

Late and scary ...

@klaus herrmann...SHUT UP,IT ONLY COME SHEET OUT YOUR'S...

One of the best !

if it's not english, its probably made up. they do that a lot. they talk about it in the Toward the Within DVD.

."A message from the Pleiades brought me here". (;

jhjuyb huyh ?

purity...

What is the 1:50 image?

Then how did the 1:50 image appear in his death moments?

Did he see god?

Really?

Most people would say this was sort of crazy that people listen to an unkown language that the girl sings... And some may say creepy.. But to me this is Relaxing and brings me home reunited with my soul..

How do you know you will see that when you die??

i know im not saying that the song is greek

It says that it is eluding to greek so Emmelei is the greek dance of tragedy. Look uo Emmeleia on wikipedia

"Emmeleia" (the Greek dance of tragedy)

Its Lisa Gerrards language....nothing else. Its just what comes out of her. She rocks!

@AmbiBambiish celtic language i guess :)

Antique macedonian :)

THE VOİCE OF GOD

amazing :) so calming and inspiring. what language is this?

This was an ancient pagan Hellenic hymn. The language is ancient Macedonian (now extinct). That's why it sounds similar to Greek. Hellenic peoples would dance to this hymn when something tragic or devastating would happen to someone of their tribe.

Since we're beating a dead horse anyway- it's not a real language but a made up one (glossolalia)

el 2013 se aproxima a paso lento pero seguro, en las visiones perceptibles de cualquier individuo, podemos parecer almas apreciando el cambio trascendental que limpiara a Gaia de todo mal..........

pour touttes les feames love

wonderful
