Heke karê me yê din hebe, hêj zêdetir dikişîne. If we have other work, it takes even longer.
Yanî sebra we gelekî fireh e maşallah. That means your patience is very immense, mashallah.
Ee, mecburî ye. Heke sebir tunebe, ev kar naçe serî. Yes, it is out of necessity. If there is no patience, this work will not succeed.
Te got ev têşî ye, ne? Tu çawa vê badidî? You said this is a spindle, right? How do you spin this?
Ahan, binêre. Em herî pêşî hiryê tînin. Aha, look. First of all, we bring the wool.
Em hiryê dikin rîs, paşê em dikin ben. We turn the wool into thread, then we make it into yarn.
Rengên wan jî gelek xweşik in. Hûn van rengan çawa çêdikin? Their colors are also very beautiful. How do you make these colors?
Berê me bi giyayên çiyê reng dikir. Before, we used to color them with mountain herbs.
Lê niha em boyaxê ji bajar dikirin, hazir tînin. But now we buy the dye from the city, we bring it ready- made.
Ciyawazî heye di navbera ya berê û ya niha da? Is there a difference between the old kind and the current one?
Belê, helbet. Rengê giyayê xwezayî saxlemtir e. Yes, certainly. The color of the natural herb is healthier.
Ew qet ranabe, heta sed salî jî dimîne. It never fades, it stays even for a hundred years.
Maşallah. Ev çanda me ya kevnar e, divê em biparêzin. Mashallah. This is our ancient culture, we must protect it.
Rast e. Lê keçên niha zêde hez ji vî karî nakin. That’s true. But the girls of today do not like this work much.
Dibên destê me diêşe, pişta me diêşe. They say our hands hurt, our backs hurt.
(Dikenê) Rast e, hinekî nazik bûne. (Laughs) It is true, they have become a little delicate.
De fermo, em hinekî bêhna xwe vedin. Çay jî hazir e. Come please, let us rest a little. The tea is ready too.
Zor spas dayê, te zahmat kişand. Thank you very much mother, you went to trouble.
Na kurê min, çi zahmetî? Kêfa me bi mêvana tê. No my son, what trouble? We are happy with guests.
Av û hewayê gundê we jî gelekî xweş e. The water and air of your village are also very nice.
Meriv li vir pîr nabe. One does not get old here.
Welle hewa xweş e, lê jiyan hinekî zor e zivistanê. Well the air is nice, but life is a little hard in the winter.
Rê tê girtin ji ber berfê. The road gets closed because of the snow.
Rast e, zivistana vir dijwar e. That is true, the winter here is harsh.
Kerem ke, ev çaya kekotî ye. Help yourself, this is thyme tea.
Dest xweş. Bêhna wê gelek xweş tê. Health to your hands. It smells very good.
Noşî can be. Bon appetit (May it be health to your soul).
Dayê, tu ji kengî va li vî gundî dijî? Mother, how long have you lived in this village?
Ez li vir hatime dinê, li vir mezin bûm. I was born here, I grew up here.
Bav û kalên me hemû li vir bûn. Our fathers and grandfathers were all here.
Tu qet neçûyî bajar ji bo jiyanê? Did you never go to the city to live?
Na, ez nikarim li bajar bijîm. No, I cannot live in the city.
Li bajar bêhna min teng dibe. In the city, I feel suffocated (my breath gets tight).
Çima? Ji ber qerebalixê? Why? Because of the crowd?
Belê, hem qerebalix e hem jî dikan û xanî li ser hev in. Yes, both it is crowded and the shops and houses are on top of each other.
Li vir em azad in, çavê me vekirî ye. Here we are free, our eyes are open (we have a view).
Rast e, mirov li vir hîs dike ku zindî ye. True, one feels that they are alive here.
Ka em hinekî behsa wan hekîban bikin dîsa. Let us talk a little about those saddlebags again.
Ev nexşên li ser wan, wateya wan çi ye? These patterns on them, what is their meaning?
Her nexşek çîrokek e kurê min. Every pattern is a story, my son.
Ev nexşê hanê, ev nîşana çiyayên me ye. This pattern here, this is the sign of our mountains.
Û ev jî nîşana çemê me ye ku di gund ra derbas dibe. And this is the sign of our river that passes through the village.
Gelek balkêş e. Yanî hûn xwezayê dinexişînin ser xalîçan. Very interesting. Meaning you embroider nature onto the carpets.
Belê. Tiştê em dibînin, em wî çêdikin. Yes. The thing we see, we create that.
Gelo ev huner derbasî nifşên nû dibe? Is this art passing to the new generations?
Welle kêm e. Hêvîya me ew e ku wenda nebe. Well, it is scarce. Our hope is that it does not get lost.
Em jî hêvîdar in. We are hopeful too.
Heke hûn bixwazin, ez dikarim nîşanî we bidim ka em çawa nan dipêjin jî. If you want, I can show you how we bake bread too.
Welle dê gelek baş be. Nanê tenûrê ye? Well that would be very good. Is it tannour bread?
Belê, nanê tenûrê ye. Me hevîr kiriye, hazir e. Yes, it is tannour bread. We have made the dough, it is ready.
De ka em herin binêrin. Come let's go and see.
(Dengê meşê û guhertina cih) Em niha hatin ber tenûrê. (Sound of walking and location change) We have now come to the tannour.
Germiyek gelek xurt jê tê. A very strong heat is coming from it.
Belê, divê tenûr baş germ bibe daku nan xweş be. Yes, the tannour must get hot well so that the bread is good.
Keça min, ka wî hevîrî bide min. My daughter, give me that dough.
Destê te neşewite dayê? Won't your hand get burned, mother?
Na, em hîn bûne. Çermê destê me stûr bûye. No, we are used to it. The skin of our hands has become thick.
(Temaşe dike) Tu çawa wisa zû li dîwarê tenûrê dixî? (Watching) How do you slap it on the tannour wall so quickly?
Ev tecrûbe ye. Salên dirêj e em vî karî dikin. This is experience. It is for long years that we do this work.
Bêhna nanê teze mirov serxweş dike. The smell of fresh bread intoxicates a person.
Kerem ke, ev nan ji bo te ye. Germ e, hay jê hebe. Here you go, this bread is for you. It is hot, be careful.
Gelek spas. (Dixwe) Welle tama wî nayê gotin. Many thanks. (Eats) Honestly, its taste cannot be described.
Li bajêr nanê wisa tune ye. In the city, there is no bread like this.
Nanê bajêr hemû bi makîne ye. Ev bi dest û dil e. The city bread is all by machine. This is by hand and heart.
Rast e. Dilê dayikê tê de ye. That's true. The mother's heart is in it.
Xwedê rizqê hemûyan bide. May God grant sustenance to everyone.
Amin. Dayê, zarokên te çend in? Amen. Mother, how many children do you have?
Pênc kur û sê keçên min hene. I have five sons and three daughters.
Hemû zewicîn e, çûne malên xwe. All are married, they have gone to their own homes.
Hemû li vî gundî ne? Are they all in this village?
Hinek li vir in, hinek li Duhokê ne. Some are here, some are in Duhok.
Tên serdana te? Do they come to visit you?
Belê, her Înî û Şemî tên. Mala me tijî dibe. Yes, every Friday and Saturday they come. Our house gets full.
Xwedê wan bihêle. Kêfa te bi neviyan tê? May God keep them. Do you enjoy the grandchildren?
Ooo, neviyên min canê min in. Ez ji wan pirtir hez dikim. Oh, my grandchildren are my soul. I love them more.
Dibêjin "Gûz şîrîn e, kakil şîrîntir e." They say "The walnut is sweet, the kernel is sweeter."
Aynen wisa ye. Ew kakil in. It is exactly like that. They are the kernels.
De baş e dayê, emê niha berê xwe bidin bexçê we yê hinarê. Alright mother, we will now head towards your pomegranate orchard.
Min bihîst hinarên vî gundî navdar in. I heard the pomegranates of this village are famous.
Belê, hinarên me tirş û şîrîn in. Avdar in. Yes, our pomegranates are sweet and sour. They are juicy.
(Dimeşin) Rêya bexçe dûr e? (Walking) Is the way to the orchard far?
Na, li jêra gund e. Pênc deqe ye. No, it is at the bottom of the village. It is five minutes.
Xweza li vir gelekî xweşik e di payîzê de. Nature is very beautiful here in the autumn.
Payîz xweş e, lê darên me pelên xwe diweşînin. Autumn is nice, but our trees shed their leaves.
Ev darên çi ne? What trees are these?
Ev gûz in, û ewê jêr jî sêv in. These are walnuts, and those further down are apples.
Berhemê îsal çawa bû? How was the harvest this year?
Şikir, ne xirab bû. Lê av kêm bû îsal. Thanks (to God), it wasn't bad. But water was scarce this year.
Kêmbûna avê tesîr li fêkî kir? Did the lack of water affect the fruit?
Belê, hinekî biçûk man. Yes, they stayed a little small.
Lê tama wan? But their taste?
Tama wan şêrîn e, pirsgirêk tune. Their taste is sweet, there is no problem.
Me got hinar. Em gihîştin? We mentioned pomegranates. Have we arrived?
Ahan, ev in darên hinarê. Binêre çawa sor bûne. Aha, these are the pomegranate trees. Look how red they have become.
Maşallah, wekî laliyan dibiriqin. Mashallah, they are shining like rubies.
Ez dikarim yekî jê bikim? Can I pick one?
Kerem ke, hemû para te ye. Help yourself, it is all your share.
(Hinar vedike) Rengê hundirê wê jî ecêb e. (Opens pomegranate) Its color inside is also amazing.
Dayê, tu ji van hinarên tirşava jî çêdikî? Mother, do you make pomegranate molasses from these too?
Belê, em her sal dema hinarên mezin çêdikin. Yes, we make it every year during the big pomegranate season.
Em dikelînin heta dibe wek dimsê. We boil it until it becomes like molasses.
Ew gelek bi feyde ye bo nexweşiyan. That is very beneficial for sicknesses.
Bo dil baş e, bo mîdeyê baş e. It is good for the heart, good for the stomach.
Destên we sax bin. Hûn xizmetek mezin dikin. May your hands be healthy. You are doing a great service.
Berî em xelas bikin, gotinek te ya dawî heye? Before we finish, do you have a last word?
Ez silavan li hemû temaşevanan dikim. I send greetings to all the viewers.
Bila werin gund, deriyê me ji hemûyan re vekirî ye. Let them come to the village, our door is open to everyone.
Gelek spas dayê, bimîne di xweşiyê de. Thank you very much mother, stay in happiness.
Eve gundê Fêrxarabê ye. Cihê kevin e, hemî cihê kevin e, gundê xarabî ne. This is the village of Ferxarab. It is an old place, they are all old places, ruined villages.
