The Warrior Princess (Song)

The Warrior Princess song for Xena: Warrior Princess had music that was composed, and lyrics that were written, by Joseph LoDuca, one of the favorite composers of Robert G. "Rob" Tapert, the Raimi brothers(Sam, Ivan, and Ted), and Bruce Campbell, founders of Pacific Renaissance Pictures And Television, the production company behind both Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, along with the made-for-television films that served as pilots for it, and Xena: Warrior Princess. It features Bulgarian chanting (translated from LoDuca's English lyrics) behind the classic narration.

It is available on the XWP Soundtrack Volume One.

Lyrics
The lyrics, chanted in the Bulgarian language, are:

Богдана Булка хубава Богдана Булка хубава Богдана Булка хубава

Богдано Юнак войводо Запаса сабя прегия.

Па събра верна дружина та са отишли на Троя.

Скокнала та побегнала Сама останала.

А вратари си идея Богдана грабна сабята.

Богдано Юнак войводо запаса сабя прегия. Па събра верна дружина Та са отишли на Троя.

Скокнала та побегнала Сама останала. These translate into the English language as:

Bogdana bride beautiful Bogdana bride beautiful Bogdana bride beautiful

Bogdano, you brave voivode (warrior) She gird a sword around her And gathered a trusty battalion they went to Troy.

She jumped and run of She was left alone.

Then the guards walked away Bogdana grabed her sword.

Bogdano, you brave voivode (warrior) She gird a sword around her And gathered a trusty battalion they went to Troy.

She jumped and run of She was left alone.
