Send inquries to: Soundtrack Music Associates play at hide and seek?? I see a lot of many $$$$ What is plagiarism??? Many people think of plagiarism as copying anothers work or music or borrowing someone elses original ideas But terms like copying and borrowing can disguise the seriousness of the offense: According to the Merriam Webster Online Dictionary to plagiarize means to steal and pass off the ideas or words of another as ones own to use anothers production without crediting the source to commit literary theft to present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source Plagiarism from Latin plagiare to kidnap is the practice of claiming or implying original authorship or incorporating material from someone elses written or creative work in whole or in part into ones own without adequate acknowledgement Unlike cases of forgery in which the authenticity of the writing document or some other kind of object itself is in question plagiarism is concerned with the issue of false attribution Apparently Tyler Bates was influenced by the magical traditions of Bulgarian folklore Though Tyler Bates claims to have composed the song it is obvious that in fact he didnt Many people were not happy with that fact but in cases like such it is impossible to track down the composer of the song since many of the Bulgarian folk songs are made by the people for the people and they do not belong to anyone but to the Bulgarian people I was extremely happy to hear the song in this movie but I wished the filmmaker and the composer researched more thoroughly the history of this beautiful musical piece and credited it properly in the titles And I want to make it clear that I am saying this not for the sake of a specific artist or musician but for the sake of Bulgarian folklore I do believe it is high time that people start recognizing and appreciating more the amazing Bulgarian culture However if people dont know where exactly that musical piece was taken from they would not get curious and explore more what Bulgaria has to offer First lyrics record of the song was published in Turnovo Bulgaria by Ljuben Karavelov in 1878 Here is the original lyrics of the song and an English translation I have to note several things It is impossible to translate the absolute meaning of this song the same way we Bulgarians hear it A small example is the fact that the woods in Bulgaria have a very powerful meaning for us The word itself in Bulgarian is gora and is in feminine grammatical gender Bulgarian grammar and for this reason the performer also calls the woods sister sestro In addition in the past the woods was the place where many of the revolutionary movements had hidden and many Bulgarian sons and daughters found their death there The woods is a sacred place in Bulgaria It was a shelter and a mother for many Bulgarians for a long time
