Quant Amors Trobet Partit x Kingdom of Heaven ⚔️
I’m such a procrastinator that I have only just edited what I wanted to edit ten years ago, in high school. And it’s not even the full song xD The Last Stand edit (the current upload is from 2019, but the original upload was actually from 2016) always got me so pumped back then lol so I wanted to make my own with the Kerak scene but with this song 🥰
In the original lyrics and other versions this is included:
«Peirols, maint amic partran
= «Peirol, many lovers will depart, weeping, from their ladies who would stay here and be joyful if it were not for Saladin.»
The language is trobador Old Occitain, what was frequently used for chansons and chansonettes, even by those Franks who were not Occitan. 💛💛💛 That’s why I use it in HCW sometimes.
And for example, Richard the Lionheart wrote in both d’Oil French and d’Oc 🦁
“The poem was composed following the fall of Jerusalem in October 1187 (see lines 37-39) to the forces of Saladin (see line 52) and while conflict (30-32) and fighting (43) between the kings (32) of England and France (who had taken the cross in the period late September 1187 to January 1188) were delaying their departure for the Holy Land.” - rialto.unina.it
