Hymnus Secundus - Hungarian War Song

Enjoy the regular uploads while my vacations last, and please don't forget the channel afterwards.

This is a ballad by Bálint Balassi, or Balassi Bálint in Hungarian, written in the 1500s. It was written in form of a prayer, as Balassi is known as one of the greatest religious poets in the Hungarian language to date.

We remember the brave Hungarians who fought to stop the Turkish onslaught.

PLEASE no ethic conflicts in my comments section. This is not the early part of the 20th century, the time for ethnic onlaught has passed. We are all Catholics, and if you are not... Why even bother to comment?

Lyrics:

Az Szentháromságnak, kinek imádkoznak,
Kristus, másod személye!
Régi vitézeknek, roppant seregeknek
győzhetetlen Istene!
Tehozzád kiáltok, ki katonád vagyok,
vigy, kérlek, vitézségre!

Most is vitézeknek te vagy bátor szívek,
kik véled dicsekednek,
De az kevélyeknek, kik mással kérkednek,
csak szégyenvallás helyek,
Mert kit te nem segélsz, szíve, esze elvész,
hátat ád ellenségnek.

Az te nagy nevedben én is most, Istenem,
kötöttem fel szablyámot,
Sok jó szerencséket várok csak tetőled,
s vitézlő sok szép jókot,
Mert nem fizetésért, sem gazdag prédáért
járom, tudod, utamot,

Te vagy szál kopiám, te vagy éles szablyám,
jó lovam hamarsága,
Elmémnek vezére, karjaim ereje,
én szívem bátorsága,
Bízván szent nevedbe, mégyek örvendezve,
bátran káromlóidra.

Hogy vidám orcával, szép háláadással
én felmagasztaljalak,
Ez széles világnak téged hadnagyomnak
örömmel kiáltsalak,
Vérrel festett szablyát ki adsz olyanoknak,
kik zászlód alatt járnak.

Éljen Krisztus Király!

[adeodatus]

I am a simple Polish man. I see song of our Hungarian brothers, I like it.
Lengyel, Magyar – két jó barát, együtt harcol, s issza borát.
Polak, Węgier, dwa bratanki, i do szabli i do szklanki.

Long live the holy nation of Saint Stephen I 🇭🇺❤✝️

From 1102 to 1918 we were as brothers and so we are today 🇭🇷✝️🇭🇺

Didn't expect to like Hungarian in a song, as I'm simply not used to the language.

The translation, however, showed the beauty of the song! Very happy to have listened to the end, and thank you for uploading this great piece

[mrDjuroman]

Historically, Hungarians were often our great allies 🇭🇷🇭🇺

[szofitokes]

I've never commented before but I had to thank you for representing hungarian christian music! You should consider doing "Boldogasszony anyánk" as well, it's one of the oldest hungarian hymns out there and its about our mother Mary. As always, thank you for your work, sending much love from Hungary! God bless you!

[clutchingdaggerz]

Not a Catholic or a Magyar, but this song is just purely powerful. Based 100%.

[kzataract]

Not lying, your music did inspire me to convert a little. I was raised an atheist by my parents, but I can see past that now. Currently in progress, thank you!

The Hungarians, despite the mockery of them for being Uralic, formed part of the critical shield that saved central and Western Europe from the Mongol hordes. It’s said this fight forged their strong relations with the Poles. Today, they together fill the void in the Christian world that the Habsburgs left behind. Love from America! 🇺🇸🦅🌷🇭🇺

My boy took months off, only to come back and release 3 videos in a row. Glória a Cristo Rei, Deus e a Virgem Maria 🇻🇦

Long live the House of Hunyadi and Matthias' Black Army of Hungary

[Navarothravenheart]

Beautiful song.

I'm a conservative Catholic and Polish, so it's obvious that I like Hungary. Although after visiting Budapest I am convinced that even without these features, my nationality and religion, I would like this country. Budapest is one of the most beautiful European cities, Hungarian cuisine is delicious and the original Hungarian tokaji undoubtedly provides one of the most pleasant experiences you can have while consuming wine.

[bloodymarvellous]

Glory to the eternal friendship of Hungarian and Polish nations! We are bound together by the blood we spilled for freedom and respect we have to each other. May this valuable relation never die even despite Hungary now looking slightly to the east. Eternal love and respect from Poland.

Éljen Nagy Magyarország!
Respect to our allies up north
Since the times of János Hunyadi
🇦🇱🇭🇺

[varjubalazs]

Hiszek egy Istenben,
Hiszek egy hazában,
Hiszek egy Isteni örök igazságban,
Hiszek Magyarország feltámadásában. Ámen.

Saint Stephen of Hungary, pray for us! God bless all my Catholic brothers!

[CptSquirrel]

Been watching for multiple years, never expected one of our hungarian songs to be uploaded. Thank you!
