'Oro

'Oro is a god of the Polynesian pantheon. The veneration of Oro, although practiced in varying intensity among the islands, was a major cult of the Society Islands in the 17th and 18th centuries, especially Tahiti and Raiatea. On Tahiti 'Oro was the main deity and the god of war. The secret society of Arioi was closely linked because of its rites. On the Marquesas Islands, 'Oro bore the name Mahui.

Origins

Four main gods were venerated on the Society Islands: Ta'aroa, originally the god of the sea and fishing, Tane, god of the forest and handicrafts, Tu, the old god of war and Ro'o, god of agricultural products and the weather. These main gods were also venerated on the other Polynesian islands.

The colonists who settled as part of the Polynesian expansion spread their religion amongst the various islands. Over the centuries the continual movement and developments of the original society groups brought about local differences and adaptations of the cult within the Polynesian Triangle.

    Hora, also known as horo and oro, is a type of circle dance originating in the Balkans but also found in other countries.

    Etymology

    The name (spelled differently in different countries) is cognate to the Greek χορός: 'dance' which is cognate with the ancient Greek art form of χορεία; see Chorea. The original meaning of the Greek word χορός may have been 'circle'. The course of the seasons was also symbolically described as the dance of the Greco-Roman Horae, and they were accordingly given the attributes of spring flowers, fragrance and graceful freshness.

    Also, the word is present in Slavic languages and "hora" and "oro" are found in many Slavic languages and have the meaning of round (dance) and the verb 'oriti' means to speak, sound, sing which previously meant to celebrate.

    The Greek χορός is cognate with Pontic 'khoron', Bulgarian хоро 'horo', Romanian 'horă', Serbian/Croatian/Bosnian/Montenegrin/Slovenian 'kolo', Macedonian/Montenegrin 'oro', the Turkish form 'hora', 'valle' in Albania, and in Hebrew הורה (Hora). The Khorumi dance of Georgia also might be connected to the Horon dance in the neighbouring Turkish regions, as it rose out of the Adjara region, where Kartvelian Laz people coexisted for centuries with Greek Pontians.

    oro

    by: Panda

    Nunca oí consejos y me enamoré,
    yo al ras de suelo y tú siempre volando tan alto,
    tan alto...
    Te gusta el dinero y la comodidad,
    pero tú me dejas muy triste y herido de muerte,
    qué suerte...
    (CORO)
    ¡Oro! / tú me has cambiado por oro,
    te has olvidado de lo sentimental
    por un puño de metal.
    ¡Oro! / el amarillo del oro
    te gustó más de lo que yo te ofrecí
    y ahora tú te vas de mí.
    ¡Oro!, el oro cambió tu amor...
    Yo te regalé una luna sin miel,
    una cama blanda y una almohada repleta de sueños,
    pequeños...
    Tal vez no bastó con lo que tengo aquí,
    y tu amor se fue por el hoyo que hay en mis bolsillos,
    vacíos...
    (CORO)
    ¡Oro! / tú me has cambiado por oro,
    te has olvidado de lo sentimental
    por un puño de metal.
    ¡Oro! / el amarillo del oro
    te gustó más de lo que yo te ofrecí
    y ahora tú te vas de mí.
    ¡Oro!, el oro cambió tu amor...
    ¡Oro! / tú me has cambiado por oro,
    te has olvidado de lo sentimental
    por un puño de metal.
    ¡Oro!, nonononono.
    ¡Oro!, nonononono.
