Hi! You know that scene when the Hetman's army first strike down the polish calvary. But before this the army march to the polish fortress and there is a really good song. Does anyone of you know its name? I am just interested in, becaus my polish freind can't help me. I know you know. :)
Sorry to say it, but the song is not a part of the soundtrack. But I like it too. Perhaps it can be sought on the Net by its lyrics, which I unfortunately don't know.
Poky do pohodu, / Poky do s_hid soncia /x2 Surmy ne surmyly! /
Nalewajmy bracia w krysztalowe czasze, by kule nie braly i szable mijaly, zatroskane glowy nasze zeby Ukraina nigdy nie plakala, zeby nasza slawa, ta kozacka slawa, przed nami wciaz; podazala Ojcem mi ataman, matka Ukraina, szabla moja siostra, byle ciela ostro, gdzies w chutorze ma dziewczyna nie placz ojcze, matko nad dola kozacza, Lachom nie ulegne, predzej juz polegne, trawy nade mna zaplacza.
"Sahajdacznyj"
Hej, kto w lisi ozowysia (Hey, who’s calling in the woods) Oj to moja myla, (Oh that’s my lover) Po hryby chodyla, zabludyla. Hej! (She was gathering mushrooms and lost her way) Hej na hori, tam zenci znut, (Hey, up on the hill reapers reap) A popid horoju, popid kremenoju (And at the bottom of hill) Kozaki idut. (Cossacks go.) Po peredi Doroszenko wede swoje wijsko, (Doroshenko leads the army) Wijsko zaporozskie, potychosenku. Hej! (Zaporozhski force, goes stealthily.) A po zadu Sahajdacznyj (Sahajdachny with arriergard) Szo prominial zinku. (The very he who swapped his wife) na tiutiun, t ajlulku, neopatrznyj.-Hej! (for tobacco and pipe).
Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the particular version of the song used in the soundtrack as the Cossacks march off to war? I have both soundtrack albums for the film. The second titled "Ogniem i Mieczem 2" features a very brief clip from the song, followed by some sounds of battle and other music from the film. I'm hoping to find the full version.
