try as they might, the soviets never crushed you. long live Estonia. love from america

*My Fatherland Is My Love* My fatherland is my love, To whom I've given my heart. To you I sing, my greatest happiness, My blossoming Estonia! Your pain boils in my heart, Your pride and joy make me happy, My fatherland, my fatherland! My fatherland is my love, I shall never leave him, Even if I must die a hundred deaths Because of him! Though foreign envy slander you, You still live in my heart, My fatherland, my fatherland! My Fatherland is My Love, And I want to rest, To lay down into your arms, My sacred Estonia! Your birds will sing sleep to me, Flowers will bloom from my ashes, My fatherland, my fatherland!

You must preserve your culture. You are a beautiful nation with very few people. Keep speaking your language and singing for the years to come.

I was so happy when my mother was able to witness the Estonians gain their independence again in her lifetime. She was able to return home to Estonia a few times before her death in 2009.

（I've just started studying Estonian, so there may be a lot of mistakes.） Olin Jaapani keskkooliõpilane ja uurisin, millised olid sellised Balti riigid nagu Eesti kaasaegses ajaloos. Kuid arvasin, et see oli nende jaoks hämmastav kes pole laulmist Nõukogude Liidu päevilt lõpetanud. Tahaksin teid veel kord tänada, et sain teada, et Laurupidu põhines Laulev revolutsioonil. Ma armastan Eestit. from 🇯🇵

I know not a single Estonian....but, I love these people! I love their beautiful patriotism, and how they respect their ancestors and their history, and come together as one, to breathe as one, and to celebrate their wonderful country and their lovely freedom, in such a beautiful way with song!! I'm so very proud of them, and cannot help but shed a tear as I watch this wonderful video. I so wish I could have been there myself to see this, and to feel this, amazing gathering! I wish we had this appreciation for our blessings in my America! Estonia....you are a marvelous example to the rest of the world!!!!! :)

Heijā Igaunija! Vienoti mūžam! Sveicieni no Latvijas! Tervitused Eesti vendadele!

Dear Estonian people. What a great choir-event is Laulupidu. I hope to be able to be there and join in 2024. Musical greetings from the Netherlands

I cry at this, and I'm not even Estonian.

On every Laulupidu, the entire country sings with enthusiasm and emotion that I can hear them from the other side of the pond! Greetings from the USA!

Human dignity, celebrated en masse - this is truly, wonderfully moving. Bravissimo, Estonians, bravissimo!

Сила ваша в единстве!!!

I've been enjoying estonian festival songs hour after hour lately Always delighted to watch so many young people gathered to preserve their cultural legacy and sincerely i have to say that ethnic estonians are among the most beautiful people of Europe Long live Estonia Arvo part has a special place in my heart Greetings from Romania

Tämä liikutti, olen nähnyt, soittanut ja kokenut laulu- ja soittojuhlat Tallinnassa vuonna 2000 ja voin sanoa, että sama tunnelma oli silloin. Paljon ystävällisiä ihmisiä ja hyvää musiikkia. Suosittelen kaikille.

Warm greetings from Poland 🇵🇱 🇪🇪 So beautiful performance! It touches the soul!

Tätä ei voi katsoa liikuttumatta... Koskettavat sanat, hieno sävellys - ja ennen kaikkea täydestä sydämestä laulavat ihmiset. Tämä on isänmaallisuutta hienoimmillaan!

Kyllä on upeaa! Kaikki laulavat täydestä sydämestä ja liikuttuneina.

Когда-то русские хоры исполняли эту песню на эстонском языке. Там же,на певческом поле. И я тоже пела и до сих пор помню эту песню!

As a Brazilian who lived between South Africa and USA, I am totally engrossed by the power of this singing, the love for The Fatherland expressed by the Estonians as they sing "Mu Isamaa on minu arm." I can't help but am in tears to think about the history of this beloved people. I've never been there, do not know any Estonian, but my heart is gripped by this people... ahhh Estonians... your resilience and love for your country is a charming, powerful example to many in the world... your passion as you sing your national anthem take any sensitive heart to another level. Thank you for this. You are indeed a beautiful people, beautiful country, an amazing example of love for your own land. I enter 2021 in couple of hours inspired by who you are. Long live Estonia!

No clue why i do this to myself.. But every time when i watch laulupidu og. songs i cry my eyes out like a kid. In every other tragic event in my life i am like regular estonian - no emotions. But when hearing these songs i can't contain myself ... It is so silly :D

This is incredible! Best wishes to Estonia and its people from Poland ❤️🇵🇱❤️🇪🇪

The meaning of this song is that Estonians will never give up... does not matter how difficult the times would be.....

Kocham, Finów, za ich piękne stroje, za nie złoność, w wojnie "zimowej", za kuchnie i za przepiękne kobiety.

My Fatherland is my love And I have given it my heart I’m singing to you, by utmost joy, My blooming Estonia. I’m singing to you, by utmost joy, My blooming Estonia. Your pain is boiling in my heart, Your happiness and joy makes me happy My Fatherland, my Fatherland My Fatherland is my love and I will not leave her Even if I had to die a hundred times for it Even if I had to die a hundred times for it If maligned by a stranger’s jealousy You will still live in my heart You will still live in my heart My Fatherland, my Fatherland My Fatherland is my love and I want to rest I will lay to rest in your lap My holy Estonia I will lay to rest in your lap My holy Estonia Your birds will sing me lullabies You will grow flowers out of my ashes You will grow flowers out of my ashes My Fatherland, my Fatherland

Поют и члены правительства и президент Эстонии и школьники и пенсионеры - это их страна. Невозможно представить чтобы такое случилось в России и Путин был рядом.

Прекрасные лица, прекрасное пение, прекрасная свободная страна ! Да здравствует Эстония и эстонцы !

I was there ❤️ So emotional! Never forgot! Blessings 💝

Didn`t understand anything but my ears was pleased! Greetings from Latvia!

This song makes your tears roll down

Such a beautiful tradition! I cry whenever I hear this song, and I'm not Estonian. Greetings from Mexico.

I only know a few words of Estonian, which did not matter . The pride and emotion of its people was indescribable. Its long struggle against the odds and gaining independence is told in the Emotions.and pride for this wonderful country. Words were not needid. I have been to the last two and it still brings on my emotional tears and a pride in my Estonial heietage when reliving the experience of being their.

Kallis Eesti friends! It was wonderfull, congratulation.Südamlike tervitustega from Budapest

I love Estonia. God willing, I will be coming to this beautiful country exactly after 36 years!

wonderful, powerful song greeting from Latvia

Very beautiful and touching!!! Thank you for sharing this video. Warm greetings and love from Ukraine.

Visi labākie novēlējumi labākajiem kaimiņiem pasulē!

Just breathtaking. What beautiful harmony of a song and unity of people, much respect and love from Mexico 🇲🇽🤍 🇪🇪

Сердечный поклон маэстро Густаву Эрнесаксу.💥

Ein mich zutiefst beeindruckender Besuch in Tallinn, ich mag diese freiheitsliebenden Esten.

What an Anthem of Estonia telling an epic of victory and the suffering sustained by enduring to the end to ensure that final break through this World bestows upon the heroic deeds and selfless sacrifice for the Home: the Landscape of Estonia!

My respect and best wishes to Estonians

Lindo de mais, como é belo ver pessoas unidos em torno de um propósito, amar seu pais e seu povo. Parabéns e saudações do Brasil

After watching The Singing Revolution years ago, I turn to KZfaq to listen to this song that I don't understand the words but tears well up in my eyes. When ppl lose their freedom it's a universal feeling of shared pain.

I love this!! I could feel the spirit of the singing very powerful

Beautiful singing! Beautiful people! God bless Estonia!!

Wow. I don't need to understand the words to feel the power of 20,000 people singing a beautiful melody. What an experience that must have been!

C'est tellement beau tout ce peuple estonien qui chante alors que dans d'autres pays les communautés se déchirent.

Igal vaatamisel tõmbab silma märjaks - võimas ühistundmine!

Absolutely love this song. Such pride, such togetherness. I would very much love to come and witness such a beautiful event. I also love the director and how much his heart is in this performance!

I love this song. First heard it via a video by composer Howard Goodall celebrating choral traditions around the world. Estonians Latvians and Lithuanians came to Australia in substantial numbers post World War II. All three nations maintained cultural identity via Saturday scholarship and social clubs. I was contemporary with the first generations born here and had many friends from Baltic countries growing up and later workmates.

Jumalik laul. Elagu Eesti!

This is our world history from the bottom up,love it

I liked it very much, I am feeling energy and I like Estonia very much, God willing, I would like to visit Estonia once.

Absolutely beautiful!!! I must go to Laulupidu one year. It's on the bucket list now!

Великолепный ролик, очень впечатлён любовью эстонского народа, проявленной в этом исполнении. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 Excellent video, I am very impressed by love of the Estonian nation, expressed above.

Vi såg och hörde och var starkt imponerade

English translation by Karl Karlov My fatherland, it is my love, To whom I’ve giv’n my heart. I sing to you, my greatest joy, Estonia of my heart! Your pain within my bosom seethes, Your happiness joy to me breathes, Your happiness joy to me breathes, My fatherland, my fatherland! My fatherland, it is my love, And I will leave it ne’er, Even if a hundred deaths On its account I bear! Though strangers’ jealousy defame, You live within my heart the same, You live within my heart the same, My fatherland, my fatherland! My fatherland, it is my love, And comes the time to rest, Upon your bosom I will sleep Estonia, my bless’d! Your songbirds slumber to me sing, And blossoms from my grave will spring, And blossoms from my grave will spring, My fatherland, my fatherland!

Jumal onnistagu teid, armad eestlased! Tervisid Filippiineilt, uhelt soomlaselt emigrantilt.

My fatherland is my love, To whom I've given my heart. To you I sing, my greatest happiness, My flowering Estonia! Your pain boils in my heart, Your pride and joy makes me happy, My fatherland, my fatherland! My fatherland is my love, I shall never leave him, Even if I must die a hundred deaths Because of him! Though foreign envy slander you, You still live in my heart, My fatherland, my fatherland! My Fatherland is My Love, And I want to rest, To lay down into your arms, My sacred Estonia! Your birds will sing sleep to me, Flowers will bloom from my ashes, My fatherland, my fatherland! Estonian version[edit] Mu isamaa on minu arm, kel südant annud ma. Sull' laulan ma, mu ülem õnn, mu õitsev Eestimaa! Su valu südames mul keeb, su õnn ja rõõm mind rõõmsaks teeb, mu isamaa, mu isamaa! Mu isamaa on minu arm, ei teda jäta ma, ja peaksin sada surma ma see pärast surema! Kas laimab võõra kadedus, sa siiski elad südames, mu isamaa, mu isamaa! Mu isamaa on minu arm, ja tahan puhata, su rüppe heidan unele, mu püha Eestimaa! Su linnud und mull' laulavad, mu põrmust lilled õitsetad, mu isamaa, mu isamaa!

Heroiam slava!

How to say "the beautiful that can't say by words" in Estonian

Beautiful, and good looking people overal, first observation is that Estonians look wise kind of resemble Scandinavians, don’t they?

Elagu eesti!

Kia Ora.

Good looking
