Vikrče

Vikrče (pronounced [ˈʋiːkəɾtʃɛ]) is a settlement on the left bank of the Sava River southeast of the town of Medvode in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.

Name

Vikrče was attested in written sources in 1394 as Weykers, and in 1436 as Waikers. The name probably developed from the plural demonym *vykъrčane 'people living on cleared land', derived from the noun *vykъrčь 'cleared land'. A less likely possibility is that the name is derived from the Old High German personal name Wîchart.

    PLAYLIST TIME:

    Voyager II

    by: Threshold

    a ruby eye of beguiling light winking at orions might
    she lures the gallilean mind a new beginning for mankind
    and on her face for ages past we gazed through eyes of polished glass
    a voyager once landed there and filled with pictures all the air
    and awakened yearnings in our heart a home coming or a brand new start
    we travelled months in weightless grace traversing voids of time and space
    to build what caused our death on earth that here might start our kind's rebirth
    come in little earth you cannot hear me now
    and i'm never coming back again
    hello little earth you cannot reach me now
    and i'm never coming down again
    nine generations now surviving since our many coloured land has died
    and we emerged from biospheres onto a virgin land in tears
    for when we took our first few paces into eden's newest pages
    we realised what we'd guessed before this was our real home after all
    come in little earth you cannot hear me now
    and i'm never coming back again
    hello little earth you cannot reach me now
    and i'm never coming down again
    don't know what i'm hoping to find
    looking for my peace of mind
    don't know what i'm hoping to find
    looking for my peace of mind
    come in little earth you cannot hear me now
    and i'm never coming back again
    hello little earth you cannot reach me now
