Facts About The Champions' League Anthem And Lyrics. by Luyeanka(f): 11:35am On May 28, 2016 |
Ahead of tonight’s Champions’ league final, one of those things I find interesting is the anthem. Many of us are thrilled by this anthem but we don’t know the wordings. Background: In 1992, UEFA commissioned Tony Britten to arrange an anthem for the UEFA Champions League which commenced in August 1992. He themed the song after one of George Handel’s compositions. Born in 1685 and died in 1759, George Handel is still the world’s most prominent composer of all time. Handel's compositions include 42 operas, 29 oratorios, more than 120 cantatas, trios and duets, numerous arias, chamber music, a large number of ecumenical pieces, odes and serenatas, and 16 organ concerti. His most famous work, the oratorio Messiah with its "Hallelujah" chorus, is among the most popular works in choral music and has become the centrepiece of the Christmas season. The song is in UEFA's three official languages: English, French, and German. This is why many people, especially my brothers here in Nigeria, don’t understand the song. Below is the lyrics of the anthem: Ce sont les meilleures equipes Es sind die allerbesten Mannschaften The main event Die Meister Die Besten Les grandes equipes The champions! Une grande reunion Eine große sportliche Veranstaltung The main event Ils sont les meilleurs Sie sind die Besten These are the champions Die Meister Die Besten Les grandes equipes The champions! The meaning in English language: These are the best teams The very best teams The main event The masters The best The great teams The champions! A large meeting A great sports event The main event They are the best (x2) These are the champions The masters The best The great teams The champions The masters The best The great teams The champions Written by: NifemiOlu (Admin Olukoni Blog https://nifemiolu..com.ng ) References: http://genius.com/Uefa-champions-league-uefa-champions-league-anthem-annotated https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_Champions_League_Anthem 1 Like |
