The catchy North Nortughese song for this year's Eurovision quickly and unexpectedly became one of the favourites at the contest, not without much polemics. Together with South Nortugal's song, each of them receiving half points, "Nortugal" scored the 10º position with 152 joint points. But what does that song really say in Nortughese? Is it actually subliminal propaganda? Come along to discover it!

Lyrics and gloss

They are in this document: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1817_GeLuN1sE_G31bXEHSsm52O_dfQnV/view?usp=sharing. Sorry if the gloss isn't great.
Note that the blue part is in Spanish, not Nortughese. The first column has the lyrics in the Norsiac Aybuben alphabet. The second shows the romanization, which is more used by the Norsic diaspora in the West; a few orthographical rules are different between both. There are 2 official scripts in both North and South Nortugal, the other being the more phonetic Norsiac Ghestranghylo, more popular in North Nortugal, which is a modification of the Manichæan script. It would've been more proper to show the lyrics in ghestranghylo, but I went the easy way.

Pronounciation

Since Nortughese is spoken by several communities far away arround the world and its vocabulary comes from very diverse sources, it's somehow strange for its speakers to pronounce all the official phonemes standardly. However, since the performers at Eurovision are proffesional singers, they indeed do pronounce the song prescriptively (except for /ˀ/: only Norsic Arabs can unmute it as [ʔ]), as follows:

Translation: The Believing Hearts

[Intro in Spanish]

Have you ever heard the story
Of dear old Khan Theymuraz?
Half human, half prophet;
Whom everyone despised.
It's a message with a moral
That should never be forgotten.
His blessing was his damnation,
But he finally accomplished his destiny…
Follow the rhythm!

[Verse 1]

Khan Theymuraz tried and tried
To save all his people;
Harem abhorred the human Theymuraz…
And people abhorred the God-chosen khan.
Can you imagine being blessed
And cursed at one time?
His faith was truly proven:
Since us believers are known to be
The best (yeah!)
And infidels the worst (nay!)

[Verse 2]

God’s rejectors are the scariest,
Sinfulest and damnedest:
They're a bunch of creepy freaks.
We're the coolest
Among the coolest!
We all know that submissives rock!
If you agree, clap yourselves with us vehemently!

[Refrain]

Don't fear showing your true believer heart!
Don't fear showing your true believer heart!
Okay! Okay! Okay! …
Go ahead and let it out:
You know, it's being time to shout!
Do what us believers do:
We'll share with you
True (Show your)
Authentic believer heart

[Post-Refrain]

B-E-L-I-E-V-E-R-S
Show who you really are!
H-E-R-E-T-I-C-S
Skeptics are the worst,
And we the best!

[Verse 3]

Khan Theymuraz was judged;
His crimes? Showing the truths (truth)
Nobody would believe him,
Because their heart was half untrue.
Laws are laws,
And when the magi had thus decided
To make the rules be strictly enforced,
It was truculent.
Nobody had ever supported him:
The khan had to be exiled
—That's a fact—
They were scared, since he was being
By God’s route (Wouw…!)

[Verse 4]

God’s rejectors are unbearable,
Totally terrible withersakes:
All of them just a bunch of creepy freaks.
Infidels smell like dirty socks!
We all know that submissives rock!
If you agree, clap yourselves with us vehemently!

[Refrain], [Post-Refrain]

Sociolinguistic commentary

Nortughese is a mixed language native to the Norsistan region in the Levant (South and North Nortugal). It's official in 7 States and 3 territories around Eurasia, America and Africa. The basis of the standard language is Indoeuropean, with disputes about it being mostly Romance or from Old Norsic (it's own Indoeuropean branch).
In the song there are 2 words for "heart": "khërd" is the common one, from Latin, while "serd" is the learned borrowing from Old Norsic. "Khërdıñiz" & "khërdətan" also are the same (officially their suffixes aren't supposed to, but nevermind)... For "believeing", both the Romance and Syriac synonyms appear; most religious terms are taken from Syriac, which used to be the language of the Church in Nortugal. Many slang terms are taken from Russian, due to the former Soviet regime over Nortugal; they give the song colloquial and juvenile vibes. Likewise, "rhe’ttakhŏmbliz" is colloquial speech: the standard form is "rheᴥettakhŏmbliz". The song beggins in Spanish since it's a popular and fashionable language, and widely spoken by European, American and Maghrebi Norsitans, to catch the world's attention and give a message of "see? we aren't such isolationists desatached from the outer world". Vandalusia-Algarbia also presented a song in Nortughese and Spanish as well Berber, while South Nortugal used Nortughese and Nortuman Tatar this time.
The partition of Nortugal was done because of the religious division between mostly Christian South (Royal State of Nortingal, Ultramar and the Algarb) and mostly Khayyamist North (Khayyamist Khedivate of Nortingal and the Ultramar's Algarb). Both always presented a single joint song to each Eurovision contest due to the 1 Nortugal policy, but not anymore since South Nortughese singers wanted a secular song, while Khayyamism forbids all non-religious music. The chosen song, said to be composed by the Virgin (through the Crown Prince), tells the history of Theymuraz the Terrible, foreign emperor who started Khayyamism in order to end Zoroastrian-Christian disputes, so Christians and Zoroastrians united to expell him. He sought refuge in Nortugal, where gained enough followers to reconquer again its Empire and stablish a fierce theocratic autocracy based on the divine right of kings.
