I Have an Embroidered Handkerchief – Slavic AI Orchestra | Ancient Slavic Anthem Reimagined

What if a simple folk rhyme was actually an ancient Slavic prophecy?
This is "I Have an Embroidered Handkerchief" – a bold, genre-blending reinterpretation of a traditional Polish children's song, brought to life by the Slavic AI Orchestra.

Recorded live at the Vienna Concert Hall, this performance fuses symphonic grandeur, electronic pulse, techno edge, rock energy, and punk defiance into a mythical journey through the forests, fields, and fiery hearts of the early Slavic world.

Legend has it that this melody was once whispered under sacred oak trees, woven into the braids of goddesses, and carried across battlefields by the wind of destiny.
Now, it rises again — embroidered with meaning, power, and playful irony.

(Verse 1)
I have an embroidered handkerchief, corners stitched with care,
To the one I love and cherish, I will toss it there.
Let them know my heart is burning, like an ancient flame,
For the one whose song within me whispers joy by name.

(Verse 2)
Her I do not love nor long for, nor will I her kiss,
But this handkerchief embroidered, I shall give you this.
May it guard you from all evil, like the runes of old,
From the days when over Polans, skies in silence rolled.

(Verse 3)
Under Światowid’s great oak, prayers in hush were spoken,
Offerings to Weles made, for fields to stay unbroken.
This cloth is like a goddess’ braid, woven with devotion,
Let it guard all those whose Slavic blood flows with emotion.

(Verse 4)
When a new and battle-hardened ruler takes the land,
And the stronghold on the river gains its name so grand,
Songs will speak of ancient legends rising from the trees—
A kingdom born anew shall dawn, in lasting, warless peace.
