1400 pieces with me, old ones.

96
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:27,000
Min tişt pir kirîye. Û ê din jî, ê kalê, ê malê kalê min in
ma wanînan.
 
I have bought many things. And the others belong to the
elders, to my grandfather's house, remaining like that.

97
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:34,000
Û pir ehbaba jî ji min ra wanînan. Ehbab dîtine cem min,
zanîbûn meraqê min vî şî heye, anê tiştê bav û kal li cem
min didan min.
 
And many friends also brought them for me. Friends saw them
with me, knew I had a passion for this, they gave me the
things of fathers and ancestors.

98
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Niko bile li cem te be te mehfeze bike. Firotanê, em
nafiroşin.
 
Saying, "Let it be with you, you preserve it." As for
selling, we do not sell.

99
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:41,000
Em dikirin, em nafiroşin. Ev o tişta, me'neya hinda nebe.
 
We buy, we do not sell. These things, so the meaning doesn't
get lost.

100
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,000
Ez li cem xwe mehfeze dikim.
 
I preserve them with me.

101
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:50,000
Welle tişt, kevn min got pir e yek. Ê didiyê, tiştê ê kalê
min e avayê pir. Ê malê kalê min e.
 
Well, things, old ones as I said are many. Secondly, things
of my grandfather are very many. Of my grandfather's house.

102
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:54,000
Wanê meselen, xanîk û qabîk û kevn ebî min ji ê derxist.
 
Like, for example, old roofs and arches and things, I took
them out from there.

103
00:12:54,000 --> 00:13:00,000
Û ê hin hene min kirîn. Û hin hene ehbaba dan min. Wanê cem
gunda yek qite' hene didin min.
 
And there are some I bought. And some friends gave to me.
Like in the village someone has a piece, they give it to me.

104
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:07,000
Û pir hene nûfer... anê em didin te, hinek jî xozin jî, pera
didin min. Nadin, em dikirin.
 
And many are... "we give to you", some ask for money, they
give to me for money. If they don't give, we buy.

105
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:12,000
Û ê tûlê jî em nafiroşin em. Em li cem xwe mehfeze dikin. Ev

And these tools, we do not sell. We preserve them with me.
This is our Afrin heritage we are preserving.

106
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:17,000
Wanê em tikî bifiroşin, em nafiroşin. Heta em kanin, em kom
dikin. Em na... bifiroşin.
 
Like, if we were to sell a piece, we won't sell. As long as
we can, we collect. We don't... sell.

107
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,000
Habo turasê me ma hinda nebe.
 
So that this heritage of ours doesn't get lost.

108
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:25,000
Em ji qişkê xwe ra li dû dirin. Te dît, me yê oda ji xwe ra
çêkiriye, oda ji textî ye, me tê da me danînan e.
 
We follow our roots. You saw, I built a room for myself, a
wooden room, we placed them in it.

109
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:31,000
Wanê em her derê, ewa dibe em tê da rûdinin. Em... wanê pir
ewa dibe, em pir dûr darin.
 
Like, everywhere, whenever possible we sit in it. We... like
it happens a lot, we go very far back.

110
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:38,000
Welle ev o esas text, û tiştê kevir çêkirin, text û axî, ev
o tiştê kevn dide, me'neya wî çêdikim.
 
Well, this basic wood, and things made of stone, wood and
earth, this gives the old feeling, I create its meaning.

111
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:43,000
Wanê ev jî wek turas e. Wanê e noke gev... kevirê meselen,
kevirê nehît e, a...
 
Like this is also like heritage. Like now... stone for
example, cut stone...

112
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:48,000
Na, ev o text xêr e, ev jî kevn dide. Ê didiyê, ez bi xwe
çêdikim, ev o giş şuxulê destê min e.
 
No, this wood is better, it also gives an old look.
Secondly, I build it myself, this is all my own handiwork.

113
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:55,000
Meselen wekî firnê min çêkirî, tenûr e... Wanê ev o wekî
nofûra, ez noke kora î min e, ez bi xwe çêdikim.
 
For example, like the oven I built, the tandoor... Like this
fountain, it is my work now, I build it myself.

114
00:13:55,000 --> 00:14:01,000
Text e, yan ko kevir, ev o karê min e. Ez bi xwe tê de
dişuxilim. Keherebe, av, karê min e esasî ye ev o.
 
Wood, or stone, this is my work. I work in it myself.
Electricity, water, this is my main work basically.

115
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:08,000
Û ê din berhem çêdikim, bi texta, dara... wanê text, ev o
yek şê... wanê pir kevn dide, me'neya wî çêdikin.
 
And the other I produce, with wood, trees... like wood, this
is one thing... it gives a very old look, we create its
meaning.

116
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,000
Meraqa me ser text pir e, we axê bû.
 
Our passion for wood is great, and it was earth.

117
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:14,000
Dayîm xaniyê me çêbî, em kanîn xanîk axî wekî berê çêkin.
Wanê dîrekî û axî.
 
If we build a house, we can build an earthen house like
before. Like with pillars and earth.

118
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,000
Noke çikî wez'ê me ne ewa.
 
Now, our situation isn't like that.

119
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,000
Welle min pirr got, evî tiştî çêdikim...
 
Well, I said a lot, I make this thing...

120
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Eb heyata berê pê dihesim. Se'a me ne dît, bes ez pê dihesim
min kirî vî karî.
 
I feel the past life with it. Although we didn't see it, but
I feel it, having done this work.

121
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:30,000
Hewa me'neya wî ye. Wanê, ewa min heve. Wanê wekî kalê min
berê em noçûbûn xanêt axî bûn, textî bûn.
 
That is its meaning. Like, my desire is this. Like my
grandfather before, we hadn't gone... they were earthen
houses, wooden ones.

122
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,000
Wanê ez pê dihesim, êş bûm ro 'eyşî me.
 
Like I feel it, I lived that day of our living.

123
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Ê ewa min, ewa min pir heve.
 
That is mine, that is my great desire.

124
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:39,000
Fenan hene, wanê klamcî, tembûrcî gunda heye, me'rûf e,
gundê me da hene.
 
There are artists, like singers, lute players in the
village, it's known, there are some in our village.

125
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:43,000
Bes vî tiştî turas, kes teneqey min nade hewan. Ê tenê
dihewînim.
 
But this heritage thing, no one competes with me. I am the
only one keeping it.

126
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:49,000
Bes wekî din hene gundê me da, 'uyla hene... tembûrê, klamê,
ma'rûf in evna, malê Çawîşler fêra dibên.
 
But otherwise there are in our village, families... of the
lute, of songs, these are known, they call them the house of
Chawishler.

127
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,000
Havno hene. Û necar tê da hene, tişta çêdikin.
 
Those exist. And there are carpenters in it, they make
things.

128
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,000
Bes vî tiştî turas, ano tiştî kevn, kesî nade hewan.
 
But this heritage thing, these old things, no one keeps
them.

129
00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:15,000
Da noke dihewînin, ez nizanim.
 
Whether they keep them now, I don't know.

Mistefa Ebdulrehman Ose ji Maratê.
 
Mistefa Ebdulrehman Ose from Maratê.

131
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:19,000
Berê, xet a em dîtin e... ta'nîya me ê xerbî dond.
 
In the past, the line that we saw... our side, the western
side.

132
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:25,000
Ta'nîya xwe da... ponzeh îçe bû. Heta fidanê destê...
 
In its side... it was fifteen inches. Until the saplings of
the plain...

133
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:30,000
Dikirin pembû havînê, û av pir bû.
 
They planted cotton in the summer, and water was plentiful.

134
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,000
Dirim.
 
I'm going.

135
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:37,000
Em dîtine, îsta pembû diçandin, da şandin av didan, rind bû.
 
We saw it, now they planted cotton, they sent water, it was
good.

136
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:46,000
Dûra... av tune bû. Yane din di pef da. Ya bi çerxê, ya bi
qudusa, diçûn av ji ta'nê danîyan.
 
Later... there was no water. Like, inside the struggle.
Either with wheels, or with buckets, they went and provided
water from the side.

137
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:51,000
Tincê xwe, deryê xwe disistin, diçûn bi be'l, de de serê xwe
disistin.
 
They washed their pots, their outsides, they went with
containers, washed their heads.

138
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:56,000
Av danîn bi... ya bi çerxa... ya zî bi sê serî... ya zinetê
danîya.
 
They provided water with... either with wheels... or with
three heads... or ornaments they placed.

139
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,000
Ê dûra... bîr çêbûn.
 
And later... wells were made.

140
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:04,000
Noqta danî me, çapîn sê du mar e.
 
We put a point, [using] Shahin number three.

141
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,000
Hele mar tê bîra te heye...
 
Is the "Mar" still in your memory...

142
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:14,000
Mebhaza çêbû, me ev o xeta sana ba'dayê... em vê dixînin, da
îstembêt istîxaf tin veda xin daetin.
 
The press was made, we... this line... we drive this... it
was better.

143
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,000
Çêtir bû.
 
It was better.

144
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:22,000
A dîsta me, malê me nêzîkî we darê mezin bû, we palûte. Ma
zu darê 'îdê.
 
Ah, I saw, our house was near that big tree, that oak. Our
press worked quickly during Eid.

145
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:26,000
Sibê 'îdê, du roj, sê roj, çar roj 'îdê...
 
Morning of Eid, two days, three days, four days of Eid...

146
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:35,000
Dadî da tin, hêlê da didan, ê sibê ba tana, heta nîvê şevê
xwo, xê dikişandin, da tirin, eb wem yanê destê merê li bin
tûndûz in û mêrava.
 
They gave force... until morning came, until midnight, they
pulled the line, they brought out, with men's hands under
the... and the water channels.

147
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,000
Didûtan dorê 'îdê.
 
They smoked around Eid.

148
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,000
Malê me rûr bû, ma'sera me ya zindî bû.
 
Our house was deep, our press was active.

149
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:44,000
Wanê çend nefer lê dixebitîn, zêt derdixistin, bi hewa
heywanan.
 
Like several people worked on it, extracted oil, with the
aid of animals.

150
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,000
Bergîr bûn, hêstir bûn, hesp bûn.
 
There were mules, there were mules, there were horses.

151
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:55,000
Zeytûnê wan hindik bûn. Zeytûnê me yên... yanî kalê me, babê
me, kalê me, zeytûn çêkirin.
 
Their olives were few. Our olives of... like our
grandfather, our father, our grandfather, produced olives.

152
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,000
Ê zeytûna...
 
The olives...

153
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:03,000
Mesele, diçûn çuwal danîyan, de berê mûsim zê hano hindik bû
ê zeytûna.
 
For example, they went and placed sacks, back then the
season was small like this for olives.

154
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:09,000
Ê bavê no, meselen, ditirrin, 'atî 'aresa hebû. Û xota
ditirrin e.
 
The fathers, for example, brought them, there was a
courtyard. And they brought the lines.

155
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:10,000
Û dihêran.
 
And they ground them.

156
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:14,000
Zê sîn da wetî... ewa hebû, zenbîla, ditirrin e.
 
Then... there was that, the baskets, they brought them.

157
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:19,000
Seda diwan bi badanê bû. Mandane. Neb dexte bû.
 
One hundred, two hundred were by twisting. Manual. Not by
pressure.

158
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,000
Îsta zêt he da derxistin, da ditirin.
 
Now they extract oil there, then bring it.

159
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:23,000
Dûra...
 
Then...

160
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:30,000
Însan ştê pêst e. Zeytûn pir bû, milt pir bû, matbez çêtir
in.
 
Humans are skinned. Olives were plenty, harvest was plenty,
the presses are better.

161
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,000
Matbez çêtir in...
 
The presses are better...

162
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:37,000
Matbez, se çuwal, disê çuwal, sê se çuwal datînê em bên,
rind bû.
 
The press, a hundred sacks, two hundred sacks, three hundred
sacks they put, we brought, it was good.

163
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:44,000
Ê ma hono dî... yanî berê dî ya ma'serê me hebû, û yek li o
cîwê da ma'sere dewr hebû.
 
And we saw like this... like before we saw our press
existed, and one in that place, the press had a role.

164
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,000
Teb'en zeytûn zî hinda t'in we çaxê. Îsta wa zêt bû ma'serê
bû.
 
Of course, olives also disappeared at that time. Now that
oil belonged to the press.

165
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:52,000
Faroze, maroze tune bûn. Ê zêt têtin no benî, zêt tastî
tinda sero didirtin.
 
Separators didn't exist. The oil came... the oil... on top
they spilled it.

166
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:56,000
Ê zê da derxistin. Ê nota ma'ser, matbez disale vdare
zeytûna te lê tê...
 
And they extracted the oil. And like the press, the press...
olives come to you...

167
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,000
Derê we da zêt li farozê te detê teneka to.
 
In that place, oil comes from the separator into your tin.

168
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,000
Yane pir rind bû.
 
Like it was very good.

169
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:15,000
Yanî heya tîrmehê sê heban cismê dinê de, behs dikin, dihat
û diçû, ew axa doniya, destê Xwedê re xwarin, wek heban çi
dibûn, bi qudreta Rebê Alemê. Evro dibêjin ziyareta Xidir
Êlyasî...
 
Meaning, until July, regarding the three grains in the body
of the world, they talk about it, it would come and go, that
soil of the world, eating by the hand of God, how the grains
would form, by the power of the Lord of the World. Today
they call it the shrine of Khidr Elias...

170
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:33,000
Ziyareta Xidir Elî... yanî ziyaret bû. Baran mesela biharê
tê da bû... Tê da bû baran ne dibariya... yanî... tê bîra
min em dihistine, alemê mesela duwemê roj înê herin
xêrûberat, deware, berxa, mîllet ser jê dikirin.
 
The shrine of Khidr Ali... meaning it was a shrine. For
example, rain would come in the spring... It would come,
[but if] rain did not fall... meaning... I remember we used
to leave it, for example, on the second Friday, people would
go for charity and blessings, [sacrificing] cattle, lambs,
the people would slaughter them.

171
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:42,000
Û ban Rebê xwe, alemê dikirin... yanî... we rûyî ellim baran
pê dibariya, xêr û bereket baran dibariya. Haaa, va hebû.
 
And they would call upon their Lord, the world [people]
would do it... meaning... upon that face [for the sake of
that], rain would fall, rain of charity and blessing would
fall. Yes, this existed.

00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:39,000
Me kar kir, em badî em teqawid derketin, em fitilîn hatin
gundê xwe rûniştin. Badî em li gund rûniştin, de me kar kir,
em vir de çûn, wê de çûn, em şkora misê kirin, em de aciz
bûn.
 
We worked, and after we retired, we returned and settled in
our village. After sitting in the village, we started
working, going here and there, we did some pruning/tree
work, and we got annoyed [tired].

183
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:51,000
Wa çaxê êzing jî hebûn, kûtkê zeytûna. Me got ka em şkora...
wele kêserkî me hebû, çakûç me hebû. Yanî karê... ewê mijî
tune bû bixwe, va tiştî ne şixulî me, ne caran ne şixulî me.
 
At that time there was firewood, olive stumps. We said let's
do the pruning... well, we had a [dull] saw, we had a
hammer. Meaning the work... there wasn't even a proper saw
itself, we hadn't worked on this thing, we hadn't worked on
it before.

184
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:59,000
Mi şkora derxist û eşkora rû bi rû me, derdixist, wa pê te
seleh dibûm, va tiştan min rid derxist. Wek pênc şeş meh e
tê de şixulî me ji va tiştî de. Erê.
 
I brought out the pruning shears and openly faced it, I
brought it out, I was fixing it up, I brought these things
out. It's been like five or six months I've been working on
this thing. Yes.

185
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:09,000
Û hav tiştî me çêkir, tiştê ji eslen hewa ê berê... ê kolkê
me, va tişta pê ow dikir, gi dar lûxe, gi şixre ye, gi
hefcar e.
 
And we made these things, things originally from the past...
our plowing/stubble tools, they used to do that with these
things, whether it's the wooden roller, the wooden harrow,
or the plow beam.

186
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:19,000
Yanî berê dîrektor tune bûn, bi cot û bi dewar dajotin.
Şixre... dîrektor û der tune bûn, bi dewar dîsa şixre ow
dikirin.
 
Meaning, in the past, there were no tractors, they plowed
with a pair [of animals] and cattle. The harrow... there
were no tractors or threshers, again they used cattle to do
the harrowing.

187
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:36,000
Gi genim e, gi nîsk in, lê bar dikirin, dianîn ser bêderê.
Cercer hebû... cercer jî me pê dewar, girêdida, me pê hûr
dikir. Mehnî genim e, gi nîsk in, gi nok in, me pê dihêra.
Işta va tiştana hebûn.
 
Whether wheat, or lentils, they loaded them and brought them
to the threshing floor. There was a threshing sled
(cercer)... we tied the threshing sled to the cattle, and we
crushed [the crops] with it. Meaning wheat, or lentils, or
chickpeas, we ground/threshed with it. So, these things
existed.

188
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:45,000
Dergûş heye, dergûş ê textî bûn. Berê qîçik çûçik dikirinê,
dihezandin, darda dikirin. Pê işta, pê disekinîn.
 
There is a cradle, cradles were made of wood. In the past,
they put the small children in it, rocked them, hung them
up. With that, they stood/stayed.

189
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:59,000
Ew tune bû dest... berê va... ewê dask, hedîs, destar genim
bikutan û derbixin. Tûmaq me çêdikir ji... avê kefir... me
dikuta, menî wa kepeka jê derkeve.
 
There was no... in the past this... that sickle, iron, hand-
mill to pound the wheat and extract it. We made sheaves
from... [unclear, possibly place name or material]... we
pounded it, meaning so the chaff would come off.

190
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:10,000
Me paşîngê delûb hebû, paşê destar hebû, me dihêra, wa
genimê, badî me kelandin, me hûr dikir, dikir bilxur, menî
işta xwarinê.
 
Later we had a delûb [winnowing/cleaning tool], then we had
a hand-mill, we ground it, that wheat, after we boiled it,
we crushed it, made it into bulgur, meaning, well, for
eating.

191
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:25,000
Eyy, hewa yek, yek, tiştê me yê kevn e. Wele xweşiya xwe
tenê hewa me gîş darê zeytûnê hew kir. Kutek min dipaqijand,
çi cî, vî mîsekir [mûşekir], neqlekê min hane kutek paqij,
mîsekir ji cî da, wekî neqşa derdikeve.
 
Yes, that is one, one of our old things. Well, its own
beauty, we just finished with the olive trees. When I
cleaned a stump/trunk, what a place, I pruned this, once I
cleaned a stump like this, pruned it from the spot, it comes
out like a painting.

192
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:30,000
Mîgî kutkê zeytûnê min dipaqijand û min ji wa kutkê zeytûnê
çêdikirin va... ewna.
 
I cleaned/polished the olive stump, and from those olive
stumps I made these... those things.

193
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:42,000
Mara... berê kanî hebûn. Kaniya Maratê me‘rûf bû, digot ew
henarê di Maratê. Berê di Basûtek dageriyan, henarê Maratê
me‘rûf bûn. Kaniya xwe av pir bû, jiber dima, diçû teva
Efrînê dibû.
 
Mara[te]... in the past there were springs. The Spring of
Marate was famous, they spoke of the pomegranates of Marate.
In the past, they went down to Bassouta, the pomegranates of
Marate were famous. Its spring had much water, it remained
over, it went and flowed into the Afrin river.

194
00:24:42,000 --> 00:25:02,000
Ê de henar hebûn, wa çaxê. Paşîngê de henar hişk bûn, dar
bûn. De her yek arta gî fitilîn bûn zeytûn. Berê va zeytûna
tune bûn. Me nûq diçandin, me bîstan diçandin, yanî de va
kara me dikir. Em li gund rûniştî bûn yanî wa çaxê.
 
So there were pomegranates at that time. Later the
pomegranates dried up, became wood. So everyone turned their
land into olives. In the past, these olives weren't there.
We planted chickpeas, we planted vegetable gardens, meaning
we did this work. We were living in the village, meaning, at
that time.

195
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:13,000
Ê, badî ew bûn, noqan erd nema, gî bûn e zeytûn, û gî kask,
kar mar jî nema. De her kes berdabûn, yek çû li Heleb şkora
şixulî.
 
So, after that happened, there was no land left for
chickpeas, it all became olives, and all green, there was no
work left. So everyone left, one went to Aleppo to do
pruning/work.

196
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:25,000
Û dîsa ehbab, cîran, hewa li hene, em dihatin cem hev de, em
tên bêvarê em şkora rûdinin, em weraqa dilîzin, yanî... em
lefdê rûdinin. Em hezkirin zêberê çêtir bûye. Elhemdu
lîllah, rind e.
 
And again friends, neighbors, those who are here, we would
come together, we come in the evening, we sit like this, we
play cards, meaning... we sit together. Our love [for each
other] was better than before. Praise be to God, it is good.

197
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:39,000
Wele hene. Hene yekî din heye, bixwe berber di şixulî. De
hew jî va kîrê çêdike, biçqo destgirtê biçqo çêdike, yanî
cota, qol, molan, hene, şixre û cota çêdike. Yanî tişt
miştan çêdike.
 
Well, there are. There is another one, he works as a barber
himself. He also makes these things, he makes small handles
for knives, meaning plows, armrests, etc., they exist, he
makes harrows and plows. Meaning he makes bits and bobs.

198
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:57,000
Û heye jî yekî din, Ehmed Ebû Şiyar, vê re dibêjin... Ehmed
Şiyar heye. Hew jî tiştê... gav... me yê kevn, esasî. Gî va
tiştana kom dike, turasê me, di kal û... kalê di me. Gi mi
cem heye, va tişta heye. Ê hew jî wa tiştî kom dike.
 
And there is also another one, Ahmed Abu Shiyar, they call
him... There is Ahmed Shiyar. He also [collects] things...
steps... our old, essential things. He collects all these
things, our heritage, of our grandfathers and... our
ancestors. It is with me, these things exist. So, he also
collects those things.

199
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:09,000
Na, ê... ihtîmamê xwe em dibêjin, mehnî qişke bila
bizanibin, va cîlê ecer derdikeve, zanibin berê me çi kar
dikir. Bi çi tûnî me va kara dikir, yanî.
 
No, the... our interest, we say, meaning let the kids know,
this new generation that is coming out, let them know what
work we did in the past. With what difficulty we did this
work, meaning.

200
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:17,000
Hewa mehnî bimîne turasê me yê Kurmanc, cî kî em pê
dişixulîn e. Gi şixre ye, va tiştana işta, gi yekî kevn e
berê.
 
That implies that our Kurdish heritage should remain, the
place where we worked. Whether it's the harrow, these things
now, or any old thing from the past.

201
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:31,000
Ez dixwazim em ji hevdu ra rind bin. Em wekî ew tî, em gi bi
hevdu ra yek bin. Wekî ew tî, gi li ser mirikê ye, li ser
dawetê ye, li ser naxweşiyê ye, em li hevdu wenxwin [werin
xwedî], em hevdu ji bîr nekin.
 
I wish for us to be good to each other. Like that, that we
may all be one with each other. Like that, whether it's at a
funeral, at a wedding, or during sickness, let us look after
each other, let us not forget each other.

202
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:37,000
Û tiştê berê em ji bîr bikin... gi berê çi hebû, wa tiştî em
ji bîr bikin. Tiştni ecer em pêda bikin û pê da herin.
 
And the things of the past, let us remember [lit: forget,
but context implies 'recall' or he misspoke and meant 'let's
not forget']... whatever existed in the past, let us
remember those things. Let us create new things and move
forward with them.

203
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:50,000
Ez Can, babê Remzî, meqamê turaz ji we xwestin, emê daxin
jêra... Xemê Zalim.
 
I am Jan, father of Remzi, you requested a heritage Maqam,
we will play for it/you... "Cruel Sorrow" (Xemê Zalim).

204
00:26:50,000 --> 00:27:07,000
Pêşkêş dikim ji bo... Mihemedê Elî Tijo... ji bunyana gundê
Hesen Dêra, hezar rehmet li gora wî be, û li hecî meytê te
hazira be.
 
I present this for... Muhammad Ali Tijo... from the
buildings/foundations of the village of Hesen Dêra, a
thousand mercies be upon his grave, and upon all the
deceased of you who are present.

205
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:16,000
Wî jî xoşgir Xemê Zalim. Em kanibin bibêjin, ji wî dama Xemê
Zalim. Ax Xemê Zalim...
 
He also liked "Xemê Zalim". If we are able to sing/say it,
we give "Xemê Zalim" for him. Oh, Cruel Sorrow...

Bi xêr hatin.
 
Welcome.

215
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:15,000
Bi xêr hatin ser çavên me. Ez ji gundê Maratê me, berîkiya
ji malê Çiwîş im. Ez Elî lawê Remzî Xaçê me. Bavê Remzî.
 
You are welcome upon our eyes. I am from the village of
Maratê, from the section of the Çiwîş family. I am Ali, son
of Remzi Xaçê. Father Remzi.

216
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,000
Hûn bi xêr hatin ser çavên me.
 
You are welcome upon our eyes.

217
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:30,000
Fena cem me, yanî di bav û pîrên me de, em pê dazin dikin...
aîla me bi şiklê giştî em ji fen hez dikin. Çimkî mezinê me,
em guhdariya fen dikin. Ciyê destê me dan tîşandin.
 
Art among us, meaning among our fathers and grandfathers, we
boast of it... our family generally loves art. Because our
elders, we listen to art. They made our hands sore
[playing].

218
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:40,000
Yanî di aîla me de, hinek dibêjin dengbêj... hene...
dengbêj... em karin bêjin... mekin hene.
 
Meaning in our family, some say 'dengbêj' (bards)... there
are... bards... we can say... there are experts.

219
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:45,000
Tembûrvan jî jê çêdibin.
 
Tambur players also come from them.

220
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,000
Tembûrvan di aîla me de pirr in.
 
There are many tambur players in our family.

221
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:55,000
Ê... hîwa ye ev xwa... ev xwa hîwaya coka... di hîsê me de
hatiye çandin, va mûsîqa xwa.
 
Uh... it is a hobby... this hobby... this music itself has
been planted in our feelings.

222
00:32:55,000 --> 00:33:00,000
Mûsîqa jî yanî... alek jî hez dike mûsîqa. Mûsîqa rinde
yanî.
 
Music as well... people also love music. Music is good, you
know.

223
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:07,000
De men... ez bi xwa... ez gîştimê bavê min kilamcî bû, Xwedê
rehma xwa lê ke bavê min Remzî Xaçê, bavê min Remzî.
 
So I... personally... when I reached [that age], my father
was a singer, may God have mercy on him, my father Remzi
Xaçê, my father Remzi.

224
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,000
Bapîrê min Ehmedê Reşo, bavê min bi xwa kilamcî bûn.
 
My grandfather Ehmedê Reşo, my father himself were singers.

225
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:20,000
Ez di sefê didûyê sêsê bûm diçûm mektebê... ez elimîm...
yanî meraqa tembûrê... hîwaya tembûrê bi min girt û min
deqet pê girt, berber me da.
 
I was in the second or third grade going to school... I
learned... meaning the interest in the tambur... the hobby
of the tambur seized me and I focused on it, it pulled us
forward.

226
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:30,000
Bavê min dida kilama... me guhê dida... em jî elimîn toraz
jî, em jî elimîn mûsîqa jî... em elimîn fen yanî.
 
My father used to sing songs... we listened... we learned
the traditional songs, we learned music too... we learned
art, basically.

227
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:35,000
Û pêşiya me giya yanî... qonmiş fen û mûsîqa dibûn.
 
And before us... they were engaged in art and music.

228
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:40,000
Hîwa ye yanî... ev tiştekî, aîla me di hîsêiyayê de hatiye
çandin.
 
It's a hobby... this is something, in our family, it has
been planted in the feelings.

229
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:45,000
Me bi kêr helanî? Me bi giyayê helanî?
 
Did we pick it up by utility? Did we pick it up naturally?

230
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:55,000
Yanî... me bi pirra ra... pirr cimeet hatin cem me û em jî
pirr çûn pirr cimeeta...
 
Meaning... we with many... many gatherings came to us and we
went to many gatherings...

231
00:33:55,000 --> 00:34:00,000
Berê giya, em elimîn va kilamê toraz.
 
First of all, we learned these traditional songs.

232
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:10,000
Û... hunerek... me ji Elî Tico rehmetî jî, ciyê wî dinê be,
ji wî jî me zêde dikirî, hinek tiştin wî jî di hîsê me de
hatin çandin. Hez jê tê heye, xweş... yanî... maqamê xweş wê
hebin.
 
And... an art... from the late Elî Tico too, may his place
be paradise, we benefited from him too, some of his things
were planted in our feelings. There is love for it, good...
meaning... he had good maqams.

233
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:20,000
Me ji wî jî girtin, ji xelkê dinê jî... ji Cemîl Horo me jê
birin...
 
We took from him too, from other people too... from Cemîl
Horo we took...

234
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:25,000
Me guhdariya wî jî kir, me tembûr jî jê bir û me... lehnê
kilama jî me jê birin.
 
We listened to him too, we took the tambur [style] from him
and we... took the melody of songs from him.

235
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:30,000
Elî Tico, em rûniştin, em pirr ba rûniştin, bes vê taliyê em
bi hev re rûniştin... ê... berê dihat gundê Maratê.
 
Elî Tico, we sat [together], we sat together a lot,
especially lately we sat together... uh... he used to come
to Maratê village.

236
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:40,000
Heta em kanin bibêjin jî, em ji dûr de xaltiya hev du jî
tên.
 
We can even say, we are distant maternal cousins.

237
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:45,000
Yanî... fen, ya heyatê ji her yekî re vedike. Û hewa
ciwaniyê te ye.
 
Meaning... art, it opens life for everyone. And it is the
atmosphere of your youth.

238
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:55,000
Ya... ji êşa derbirîn... hewayê birîn, mûsîqê di wî, kilamê
di wî... ya ji Elî Tico, ya ji Cemîl Horo, Xwedê rehma xwa
lê kin... kî cimeeta hazira be.
 
Or... to express pain... the air of the wound, the music in
it, the song in it... whether from Elî Tico, or from Cemîl
Horo, may God have mercy on them... whoever is present in
the gathering.

239
00:34:55,000 --> 00:35:00,000
Ê hîwa ye, meraq e.
 
It is a hobby, an interest.

240
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:10,000
Yanî mûsîqa ta her... û fenê te jî tebe'en heye. Û hîwayê ji
her... kanê ji her yekî re çêbibe.
 
Meaning music is always... and your art naturally exists.
And the hobby... can happen for anyone.

241
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:15,000
Ê min ez li mal lê dixim. Ba zewac çêdibin, wekî we tên cem
min, ez lê dixim.
 
As for me, I play at home. Sometimes marriages happen,
[people] like you come to me, I play.

242
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:20,000
Ba dawet dibin, diwacînin ez darim.
 
Sometimes there are weddings, they invite me, I go.

243
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:30,000
Fenan nînin hene... yanî fenanîn ji aîla me de hene... wek
din kes pirr fenan tune ne di gundê me de.
 
There aren't [many] artists... meaning there are artists in
our family... otherwise there aren't many artists in our
village.

244
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:37,000
Mihemed Şo, Wehîd... lawê xalê min e... Evana kalê Tirkiyê
ne.
 
Mihemed Şo, Wehîd... my cousin... They are the old ones of
Turkey.

245
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:37,000
[Muzîk]
 
Maratê, we haven't seen an owner, we have been in the
village. Meaning we haven't seen an owner, we were in
Maratê. And until today, Marat is ancient. The world is old,
you know. And the village, we haven't seen an owner, we were
with the villagers.

246
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:57,000

247
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:05,000
Lê vurxûnê, vurxûnê...
 
Oh Vurxûn, Vurxûn...

248
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:09,000

Beautiful one, with the sweet face...

249
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:14,000
Lê vurxûnê, vurxûnê...
 
Oh Vurxûn, Vurxûn...

I see no good from you...

252
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:35,000
Wer derman ke birînê...
 
Come, cure the wound...

Şurxweşê şurşêrînê...
 
Pleasant faced, sweet faced...

254
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:50,000
Xeyrê ji te min nabîne...
 
I see no good from you...

Wer derman ke birînê...
 
Come, cure the wound...

Hingivê tevlî rûn e...
 
[You are] honey mixed with butter...

266
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:20,000
Zerka te bi kûr ve nîne...
 
Your paleness is not deep...

267
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:24,000
Ziravê hatim mala we...
 
Slender one, I came to your house...

268

Silav çûyî te ne da min...
 
I greeted, you did not give me [a reply]...

269
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:33,000
Min dît deka te li min kir...
 
I saw the trick you played on me...

270
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,000
Dibê xanê ez nas nakim...
 
She says "Dear, I don't know you..."

271
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,000
Çima kî ye vayî kalê...

kevnar...
 
Yes, from the countryside of Maratê, from the traditions and
ancient things...

Today, in this countryside, we saw many ancient things.
