Udfordring 2025: An anthem for the European Day of Languages!

Help to create (and perform) a multilingual anthem for the 25th anniversary of the European Day of Languages!

With the help of artificial intelligence we have generated the text of a song in English entitled ‘Voices of Europe’ (see below).

We now invite schools, organisations, associations and, of course, other language enthusiasts to make it a truly multilingual work!

For the initiative we invite videos of the resulting anthem being performed as well as the song text in the language used for the performance — a truly multilingual version of the song will be developed from the submissions!

Who knows, maybe we will end up with a chart-topping hit on our hands!

Deadline for submissions: 15 October 2025

Title: "Voices of Europe"

Verse 1: In every heart, a voice is found,
A melody that knows no bound.
From mountains high to oceans wide,
Our words unite, our hearts collide.

Through languages, we learn, we grow,
A world of wonders we come to know.
Together we sing, together we strive,
A symphony of tongues alive.

Chorus: Voices of Europe, strong and free,
A tapestry of unity.
Through every word, a bridge we build,
With love and peace, our dreams fulfilled.

Verse 2: Each language holds a story deep,
Of laughter shared and tears we weep.
From past to future, hand in hand,
We celebrate this vibrant land.

Let’s cherish all, from old to new,
The tones, the rhythms, every hue.
A rainbow’s glow, a starry light,
A world of voices shining bright.

Chorus: Voices of Europe, strong and free,
A tapestry of unity.
Through every word, a bridge we build,
With love and peace, our dreams fulfilled.

Bridge: No borders can divide our song,
In every voice, we all belong.
Let’s celebrate diversity,
Our shared and rich identity.

Chorus: Voices of Europe, strong and free,
A tapestry of unity.
Through every word, a bridge we build,
With love and peace, our dreams fulfilled.

Outro: So raise your voice, let’s sing as one,
Our journey’s just begun.
In harmony, we’ll always stay,
On this European Language Day.

Både tekst og musik er skabt ved hjælp af kunstig intelligens.

Krav

Lav en video, hvor du eller din gruppe/klasse/skole synger EDL-sangen. 

Vi vil lave en musikvideo af sangen, hvor vi vil forsøge at inkludere så mange af jeres indsendte videoer som muligt.

Vær kreativ: du kan danse, optræde, filme nærbilleder, synge alene eller i en gruppe, ... jo mere kreativ du er, jo større er sandsynligheden for, at din video kommer med.

Vi vil højst sandsynligt bruge en kort del af din video, f.eks. to linjer af sangen, der rimer.

Sangen kan synges på engelsk, eller du kan først oversætte den til dit sprog. For at sikre en virkelig flersproget sang vil vi foretrække oversatte versioner. Til dette formål kan du også sende os dele af sangen, som du har indspillet.

Krav til videoer
  • Videoerne skal være optaget i landskabstilstand i mindst fuld HD (1920 x 1080).
  • Sørg for, at lydkvaliteten er god. Vi skal sikre os, at hele sangen har samme lydstyrke, så det er vigtigt, at din(e) stemme(r) er i god kvalitet. Ideelt set (men det er ikke nødvendigt) kan du sende os udelukkende en lydversion, som vi kan flette sammen med den instrumentale version af sangen. På den måde kan vi justere lydstyrken på sangstemmen(e).
  • Sørg for, at alle deltagere accepterer at være med i videoen. Tjek dit lands regler om dette.
