Teya´s song Ramonda" was named after the "Ramonda serbica" flower, which is mainly found in Serbia and the surrounding regions. This flower, which was discovered by a Serbian scientist in 1884, has an extraordinary ability to revive even after drying completely, which is why it got the nickname "phoenix flower". Similarly, Natalina ramonda, a close relative of the same genus, is known in Serbia as "Natalia's ramonda" after Queen Natalija Obrenović. It became a symbol of victory in the First World War, representing Serbia's resilience after losing almost a third of its population.

🪻Ramonda is a lilac flower that can die and come back to life if it is watered. Ramonda is a national flower(fenix flower), but only with symbolic meaning here.. This is a kind of lullaby for a lonely and depressed person, spending nights in her black thoughts with no sleeping, with no one to hear her.. And every morning she still finds a reason to try again and give a chance to new day. In fact, a single drop of water is enough to bring the plant back to life! Magical.🌠

The rock on which the singer is lying at the beginning of the video represents the island of Corfu in Greece, where Serbian soldiers recovered in the First World War, after retreating across Albania. We call the sea around the island of Krv the Blue Tomb, because many soldiers who died are buried there. In Serbia, the Ramonda flower is a symbol of rebirth and rising from the ashes.Also Ramonda is called phoenix flower. The people have gone through and are going through many misfortunes and sufferings, but they always hope that everything will be fine. This song is dedicated to all those who sacrificed themselves for the benefit of new generations.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION & ANALYSIS by a SERBIAN NATIVE SPEAKER (please read until the end): [Verse 1] There's no rest, no rest for me I am restless, I cannot sleep The night won't give way to dawn Doomed is the one who is alone. [Verse 2] It's as if underwater silence reigns I'm screaming, but you can't hear my pain Beyond the mountain gleam is white Yet there's no end in sight ‘Tis the path for the wounded. [Pre-chorus] And there's no one to guide me now To Danitsa the Morning Star The world's a pyre burning each flower Where have they evanesced, those lilac ramondas? [Chorus] Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda. [Pre-chorus] And there's no one who would guide me For all the stars are sound asleep Saying prayers is of no avail Where have they evanesced, those lilac ramondas? [Chorus, break] Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda. [Chorus] Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda Lilac ramonda. [Outro] From the ashes rises up A single lilac ramonda. The song ‘Ramonda’ has a universal symbolism which can be applied to a variety of situations in life. Even though it is originally written as a deeply personal song that anyone can relate to, it can be perceived both as a patriotic song with a fragment of painful Serbian history and a song whose lyrics portray the great suffering of all the people around the world whose countries are devastated by wars and disasters. It is also infused with weltschmerz (= world pain), which is described as a sense of deep sadness at the evils or perils of the world caused by comparing the actual state of the world with an idealised longing for things to be different. The reason I am bringing weltschmerz up is because not only are people from war-stricken countries suffering but also people from other countries witnessing it and not being able to do anything to stop it. They are also hopeless and probably anxious about the same thing possibly happening to them in the future because this world has become a dangerous place. No one feels safe. Therefore, the lyrics can be interpreted as the internal monologue of both ‘the wounded’ and those who are not wounded yet but are depressed by constant exposure to human suffering through media. MAIN POINTS OF ANALYSIS: 1) Zvezda Danica, pronounced as /danitsa/, is a feminine name personifying the morning star / Venus in Slavic mythology; it can be found in Serbian lyric poetry. I transliterated it to Danitsa so that non-native speakers wouldn't pronounce it as /danika/. 2) In the phrase ‘lilac ramonda’, ‘lilac’ is an adjective meaning ‘pale purple colour’, not a noun meaning ‘a type of flower’. It's ‘lila’ in Serbian. I used archaic and poetic words in my translation since the original lyrics of the song are quite poetic as well. 3) The island and the surrounding sea at the beginning of the official video could be a reference to the Greek island of Vido and the Ionian sea in which over 5,000 Serbian soldiers were buried during World War I. A Serbian poet Milutin Bojić dedicated his poem 'Plava grobnica' (The Blue Tomb) to these soldiers and this 'blue tomb' is actually the sea around Vido. In this poem, Bojić expressed the tragic fate of Serbia, whose army had passed through the snow-covered mountains of Montenegro and Albania to get to the Greek islands of Corfu and Vido, where they found refuge and shelter. The line 'ko pod vodom tiho je sve' (= everything is quiet like under the water) could be an allusion to the deathly silence of this ‘blue tomb’, the last resting place of the brave Serbian soldiers. The reason why they were thrown into the sea is because there was not enough space on Vido and Corfu. Their corpses were weighted with rocks to prevent them from floating. 4) The title of this song references a flower called ‘Ramonda serbica’ in Latin, a species endemic to Serbia. The mountain called Rtanj is the home to this flower which was discovered in 1874 by a famous Serbian botanist Josif Pančić. Being a living fossil from the Tertiary period, it is capable of surviving extremely harsh conditions. Even if it is completely withered, just a few drops of water can revive it. Natalie's ramonda (natalijina ramonda), the flower of the same genus, is very similar to ‘Ramonda serbica’. It was named after Queen of Serbia Natalija Obrenović, and it is worn as an emblem on Armistice Day in Serbia. This flower, also known as the ‘phoenix flower’, symbolises the unprecedented suffering of the Serbian Army (during the Great Retreat) that managed to rise victoriously like a phoenix from the ashes that World War I, in which Serbia lost one third of its population, had left behind. 5) This song can be interpreted in different ways due to the universal symbolism of ramonda as the beacon of hope for people going through tough times (wars, natural disasters, disease, psychological problems, heartbreaks, etc.). According to my interpretation of the lyrics, the repetition of the line in which the lyric subject wonders where all the ramondas have disappeared (rhetorical question) represents the feeling of powerlessness, hopelessness and despair. However, the outro of the song reminds us that hope springs eternal. Despite all the atrocities occurring in the world, it is in human nature to never lose hope. Disappearing lilac ramondas can also imply the people who are currently being wiped off the face of the earth and who are actually disappearing with no possibility of resurrection, unlike ramondas. From another point of view, ramondas can be the soldiers who died in WWI. 6) Also, there's something magical and unexplainable about the melody of this song. It embodies the spirit of the Serbian people from the 18th, the 19th and the 20th century, the spirit that Stevan Stojanović Mokranjac, the most important composer of Serbian romanticism, wove into his music. This particular atmosphere of the melody can be sensed strongly only by listening to a piano cover. It’s just fascinating. 7) Danitsa (= the bright morning star) is the ONLY thing left for the lyrical subject (= anyone who identifies with the lyrics, not necessarily the author) to guide him through sadness and hopelessness. In other words, the only thing left for people going through great suffering is to wait for Danitsa to appear in the morning sky because only then will they know they survived to see another dawn, another day. I perceive the song as a cry of people who are currently going through wars and great suffering. If we look at the text from that perspective, the first and the second verse describe their psychological state in the form of an internal monologue. They cannot sleep; they feel restless; they are traumatised; they are scared; every night seems like an eternity; they are lonely because it looks to them as if no one is coming to their rescue, and even if they scream, no one will hear them, as if they were underwater. Their cry is muffled. They know that normal life (= white glow) is still happening outside the borders of their countries, and that depresses them because it seems to them as if their suffering is never going to end while somewhere in the distance everything is teeming with life. 8) In the second pre-chorus, a kind of descending gradation can be noticed. In the first pre-chorus, the lyrical subject's glimmer of hope is the morning star (may be Teya Dora's deceased father) while in the second pre-chorus not even that because now all the stars have fallen asleep, which indicates that the lyrical subject is losing hope throughout the song, but since we know that the night is darkest just before the dawn (which can be felt in the musical atmosphere of the silent break before the last chorus), what happens in the outro of the song is peripeteia, i.e. the plot twist when a single lilac ramonda eventually rises from the ashes and the tone of the song changes from depressive to optimistic. Ramonda is the light at the end of the tunnel. By the way, the lyrical subject summons Ramonda in every chorus by repeating its name, as if in the form of a mantra, hoping that it will resurrect, and it eventually does come to life. 9) The official video features the archetype of light vs darkness or good vs evil, which is suggested at the very beginning by quoting a verse from the Gospel of John. I assume that the light sphere from the video actually represents the morning star / the planet Venus and is significantly smaller compared to the amount of darkness that surrounds it in the video. It is what leads Teya Dora through the darkness (= hopelessness) until the break of dawn, the sunrise and the resurrection of ramonda (= hope) that we see at the end. It is known that the morning star is visible until sunrise, which is probably why they made it disappear into the rock just before the sun appears. They also call her Zornjača (= dawn star). Interestingly, the morning star / Venus is the brightest planet in the sky, so it's clear why it is depicted as the guiding star. It may also represent Teya Dora's late father since she devoted this song to him too. In the video, Danitsa and Ramonda are actually two interconnected motifs because they both represent light, hope, birth, new beginnings. Ramonda is born from the light of Danitsa.
