Ji gihîştina, heta niha. From its establishment until now.
Bav û kalên me hewl didin, teqirîben 400 sal, em kanin şirove bikin ji wara. Our ancestors have tried, approximately 400 years, we can explain about it.
Teb'en, di vî derî, wek herêma Efrînê, û Sûriyê û van miateqên ha, Of course, in this place, like the Afrin region, and Syria and these regions,
Pir hatin, yanî wek dibêjin Rûman, û Aşûriyan, û Suryan û pir hatin. Many came, as they say Romans, and Assyrians, and Syriacs, and many came.
Û Horiyan, Kurd jê hatin. And Hurrians, Kurds also came from them.
Lê ev warê ku, wek dibêjin, warê Kurdan de, di vî derî de, But this place, as they say, in the place of the Kurds, in this area,
Destpêkê gund, wek bav û kalên me hewl didin, In the beginning of the village, as our ancestors say,
Teqrîben 6, 7 mal e bûn. There were approximately 6, 7 families.
Beriya 6, 7 malê niha, ê pir di şkefta de bûn. Before those 6, 7 families, most were in caves.

Ev yanî, ez zanim hav ne, hav... te ji ku derê dikirin? This means, I know these are, these... where did you get them from?
Hatin gund. Destpêkê, di şkeftan de bûn. They came to the village. At first, they were in the caves.
Paşê, ê gund, yavaş yavaş, malbatê din, tê de hatin. Then, the village, slowly, other families came to it.
Yanî gund pêşve çû. I mean, the village developed.
Te behsa şkeftan kir, noko, You mentioned caves now,
Şkeft, navên şkeftên ku te gotine, jimarên wan çi bûn, û wexta ku ew hatine? Caves, what were the names of the caves you mentioned, their numbers, and when they came?
Çawa, tê de jiyan dibû? How was life in them?
Bahsa vî şkeftên gund bike. Talk about these village caves.
Çend şkeft li gund hene? How many caves are in the village?
Niha di gund de, her malêkî teqirîben, malên kevin, ne ewên niha... niha, eşwaî hatine avakirin... Now in the village, almost every house, the old houses, not the current ones... now they are built randomly...
Bes malên kevin... But the old houses...
Bîst, sîh malên kevin. Her malekî, şkeftek lê hebû. Twenty, thirty old houses. Every house had a cave in it.
Her malekî şkeftek lê hebû. Every house had a cave.
Pir jiyan dikir, di şkeftan de, pir ji, They lived a lot in caves, a lot of,
Ji pêş derara, ava dikirin. From the front doors, they used to build.
Mî dar dikirin e, haşo, hew qûn tir bûn. They built with wood, so they would be deeper.
Dewar, yanî. Livestock, I mean.
Dewar dikirin, şkeftan de. They kept livestock in the caves.
Û navên şkeftan, nav cematin, an nav şkeftê din we ye? And the names of the caves, community names, or other names for the caves?
Şkeft hene, navên şkeft hene. There are caves, there are names of caves.
Û şkeftên herî mezin? And the biggest caves?
Niha şkeftê tewr, wek dibêjin, me'rûf li gundê Maratê de, Now the most, as they say, famous caves in the village of Maratê,
Şkeftê Tîngiyê ye. Vî derî ye. Belkîm niha wê teswîr kin. Is the Tîngiyê cave. It is right here. Maybe you will film it now.

Wekî din... malê Mistê Elifê şkeftek lê hebû. Besides... the house of Mistê Elifê had a cave.
Malê Resûl şkeftek lê hebû. The house of Resul had a cave.
Ewa di destpêkê de wexta ew hatine gund, ewe şkeftê gund ew hebûn. That was in the beginning when they came to the village, those were the village's caves.
Esasen, navê gund, bi xwe, dibêjin Aşûriyan, ji Mexara hatiye. Mexara ji... Mexara... yavaş yavaş, av bûye, bûye Maratê. Actually, the name of the village itself, Assyrians say, came from "Maghara" (Cave). Maghara from... Maghara... slowly, it was formed, it became Maratê.
Mexara ji bi xwe, ewê Aşûrî, şkeft e. Maghara itself, in Assyrian, means cave.
Yanî meşhûr e, bi şkeftên gundê Maratê. Belkî di ser set şkeftî da hene. So it is famous, with the caves of the village of Maratê. Maybe there are over a hundred caves.
Belê. Yes.
Û cihên din, yên kevin li gund? And other old places in the village?
Cihê kevin me go... Old places we said...
Te go şkefta, te bahsê şkefta kir. You said caves, you talked about caves.
Te, geliyê kir heye, vî derî, til... There is a deep valley, over here, hill...
Li pêşiya me li vir e... In front of us here...
Şkeft... Şkeftê Tîngî ye, geliyê Heşter e. Cave... The Tîngî cave is in the Heşter valley.
Dikani vira hebûn... kehniyek mezin, ey kûçik hebû vî derî. You can see there were... a large spring, oh there was a dog here.
Çima dibêjin Geliyê Heşter? Why do they call it the Heşter Valley?
Geliyê Heşter, bi xwe wî gelî, The Heşter Valley, that valley itself,
Ez nizanim bes, wek çîrok dikin... inu I don't know but, as they tell the story... that
Pir heşter li vir diçêrin. Many camels grazed here.
Yanî gava kevina, heşter tim lê wer bûn li vî geli bûn. I mean in the old times, camels were always around this valley.
Nav û tesmiya ji ku derê bi zaptî hatî ez nizanim. Bes vî gelî yo, Maratê kirî du parçe. The exact name and naming, where it came from exactly, I don't know. But this valley split Maratê into two parts.
Yanî kiriyê du yalî. I mean it split it into two sides.
Yanî, aliyek vî yali ye, yaliyek vî yali ye. I mean, one side is this way, the other side is that way.
Û ji tiştên kevin, min te dît bahsa darên kir... em dest bi tiştên te bikin. And from the old things, I saw you mentioning trees... let's start with your things.
Darên kevna... Old trees...
Hev dar... û ev dar ji darê kevnar e. These trees... and this tree is an ancient tree.
Wek hewldana bav û kalên me, yanî ne kêm tirî dusid salê umrê xwe. According to our ancestors' accounts, it's not less than two hundred years old.
Maşallah gelekî mezine! Mashallah, it's very big!
Gelekî mezine! Noko si me ra teqrîben de stê xwe ew dike, ta bighîne ye. It is very big! Now, three men roughly hold hands to reach around it.
Û tê bîra me em... em bi çûk bûn, li cejnê... li qurbanê, û cejnê... And we remember... when we were small, on holidays... on Eid al-Adha, and the holiday...
Eê roji ye... Of Ramadan...
Em dihatin vir, me hincik da didan. We used to come here, we put up swings.
Noko, çîçek di darê çuçik bû ye... yanî Now, a little bit has grown on the tree... I mean
Jê şikiya ye, piçek jê şikiya ye, her ta li vir, kênderek hebû hêlik. It broke from it, a bit broke from it, even up to here, there was a swing place.
Yanî jî gund, gî dihat, şebap û xort, ê ki gî dihatin. I mean from the village, everyone came, youth, all who came.
Te got temenê vê darê çend dibe? You said what is the age of this tree?
Bixwede ez nizanim... kes nizane kî... kî çandi ye. By God, I don't know... nobody knows who... who planted it.
Bi xwe darê çiye? What tree is it exactly?
Bi xwe darê Gêlberî ye. It's a hackberry tree.
Gêlberî ye. Hackberry.
Darê Gêlberiyê. A hackberry tree.
Û ez pê dihasiyem ku niha li vir rûniştine, ba yekî hênik te... te ji bin darê dûr keve, And I sense that sitting here now, a cool breeze comes... you move away from the tree,
Ba tiştekî te, tu dikive binda wê ba tiştiki dine! The breeze is one thing, you get under it, the breeze is something else!
Te biya vî darê! You mean this tree!
Noko tiştek, sa ye uqsid al carbonê dibe, Now a thing, a shadow and it absorbs carbon dioxide,
Û oxicen ê, paqic dide. And provides pure oxygen.
Yanî hewa xwa pir paqije. I mean its air is very pure.
Yanî sax teye, tu... te mere bê da, hesiz vî darê. I mean it's healthy, you... a person rests under this tree.
Tenqi ye diki, bidabit, tenqiye diki, hewayê pakî didê. It purifies, exactly, it purifies and provides clean air.
Di bê heva, heva dare û wan, li nvê gundê we heye? And are there other such trees in your village?
Ev dar, pirrî vî tonê hene. Bes hevo, vo darê bidabit yanî, ehnawa vî darê bi vî rengîn a... muamirin dirêj ddin... These trees, there are many of this kind. But this one, this exact tree I mean, this tree's kind in this way... are long- lived...
Dema hûn piçûk bûn, we digot hûn dihatin vir û dilîstin. When you were little, you said you used to come here and play.
Em ji dihatin, me hincik li vir girêdidan, li va... eh... We came too, we tied swings here, on these... eh...
Pirr qelebalix dibû. Belkî, It used to be very crowded. Maybe,
Sê, çel, hêlik. Three, forty swings.
Li vî derî, bincî ji taqerîban kûr bûn, her yek dikane ji her cîkî, hêlkê çêkî. In this place, the roots were almost deep, everyone could make a swing from anywhere.
Û ewa zarok bûn, pir zarok bûn dehatin! Gelek xweş bûn... And there were children, many children came! It was very beautiful...
Rojên xweş bûn? They were beautiful days?
Rojên xweş bûn de... Ekîd xweş bûn. Niha xweştir bûn! They were beautiful days... definitely beautiful. Much better than now!
Niha, em giştin, te got, wexta ji şkefta derketin, dest bi xaniya kirin. Now, we've arrived, you said, when they came out of the caves, they started with houses.
Heke dizanî, binî destpêkê xaniyê gund ji çi dikirin? Kevir bûn, ax bûn? If you know, initially what did they build the village houses from? Were they stone, mud?
Ekîd, az gîştime, yanî berî bi çel, pençî salî mal tev de kevri û ax bûn. Definitely, I reached that time, I mean forty, fifty years ago, all the houses were made of stone and mud.
Çîmento tine bû ê çaxê. Sementa di der tine bû, çîmento tine bû. There was no cement back then. Cement wasn't around, there was no cement.
Kevri û ax bûn. They were stone and mud.
Yanî, malê ki, dudi, I mean, a house that, two,
Di çîmento bû. Were made of cement.
Lê gî axê bûn. But all of them were mud.
Paşê yavaş, yavaş çîmento derket, Then slowly, slowly cement came out,
Tetwîr bi, emara tetwîr bi... It developed, construction developed...
Pêşkêt û malê, kê mana... belkîm jî. Advanced and houses, few remained... maybe too.
Pir kê mana, yanî malê di axê ma bin...ez nizanim. Very few remained, I mean mud houses left... I don't know.
Mesela malbat di destpêkê de, çi kar dikir? Bi çewa jîyan dikirin? For example, the families at the beginning, what work did they do? How did they make a living?
Da ku, em niha, wekî noko, ev gund tewire. Ne wisa ye? So that, we now, like now, this village is developed. Isn't it?
Ihtîmadê gund destpêkê, The village's reliance at first,
Zeytun tinebûn, di Olive trees weren't there, in
Salê biystê, û biyspêncê, The year twenty, and twenty-five,
Heta siyê, ev set sêmiye. Until the thirties, this is set thirty.
Ê sîh, çêl.. The thirties, forties...
Ihtîmade pir, ser The reliance mostly, on
Rez bûn. Vineyards.
Ser, rez di çandin, êhtmada gund sumaq, rez di çandin. On, they planted vineyards, the village reliance was sumac, they planted vineyards.
Paşê zeytûn bû, misimê zeytûna zeytûn çandin. Then it became olives, in the olive season they planted olives.
Û vir, vo mintaqa bi xwe, And here, this region itself,
Mintiqa ko, ve geliyê hiştir û ve kaniya mezin... The region that, this camel valley and this big spring...
Em gîştin, ihtîmada pir ji sar, darên hênarê bû. Belkim hênar... We arrived, the reliance was mostly on pomegranate trees. Maybe pomegranate...
Ê destpêkê, li mintaqa Efrînê hatin çandin, li Gundê Maratê bû. Dgotin hênarê Maratê. The first ones, planted in the Afrin region, was in Maratê Village. They called it Maratê pomegranates.
Yanî, I mean,
meşhûr bin, mantiqek sîyahî û geştiyarî. Heleb, Şam e, Sûryê xelk dihatin. we are famous, it's a touristic area. People came from Aleppo, Damascus and Syria.
Efrîn bû, teqrîben Efrîn nîvê wê dihatin vî alî da. When it came to Afrin, almost half of Afrin would come here.
Û darên hinarê û ne bes darên hinarê, te çi navê darê bixwesta hebûn. And pomegranate trees, and not just pomegranate trees, whatever tree you wanted, we had it.
Yanî pir mantiqek, gelek tiştê rind tê de hebûn. So it was a very beautiful area, it had many good things in it.
Lê mixabin wek te dît wextê ku qeyran çêbû û şer dest pê kir... But unfortunately, as you saw, when the crisis happened and the war started...
...paşê jî neha, ev ê bû ye. ...then now, it has become this.
Mezin jî hişk bûn. The older ones also dried up.
Naha av tê de hene yan tune? Is there water in them now or not?
Naha av tê de tune. Now there is no water in them.
Çima we çênekirin? Çi bû? Why didn't you fix them? What happened?
Naha teqrîben her malekê, bîrek kolaye. Ihtimadîya xwe liser bîrîyê ye. Now almost every house has dug a well. We rely on wells.
Paşê ev yek ê din jî şirkeyê avê bi xwe dîsa avê digihînin Then secondly, the water company themselves distribute water.
Şirkeyê avê heye, avê li gund belav dikin. There is a water company, they distribute water in the village.
Naha bi xwe destpêkê gundî Maratê, em dikarin bibêjin ser hejmara xwe em di peyivin. Now regarding the village of Maratê itself, what can we say about its population?
Teqrîben 6,000 in, 6,000 û 400 heta 500 mal e. It is approximately 6,000, 6,000 people and 400 to 500 houses.
Tê de beledîyek kevn heye, rêya xwe saft e, 5 km ji Efrînê dûr in. It has an old municipality, its roads are paved, and we are 5 km away from Afrin.
Rêya xwe saft e, û mebna beledîyê heye. Û mektebê ibtidaiyê û îdadiyê lê heye. Its roads are paved, and there is a municipality building. And there is a primary and middle school there.

Di gund de erê. Teqrîben her haretkê yek, du cihekî, du cî xeyat hene. In the village, yes. Almost in every neighborhood there is one, two places, two sewing places.
Û e pirr jî yanî sûkê me yê reîsî tiştê ku em difiroşin li Efrînê bû. Bazarê Efrînê yê kevn, naha jî bazarek sêşemê heye. And also mostly, our main market where we sell things was Afrin. The old Afrin bazaar, and now there is a Tuesday bazaar.
Teqrîben ev pênc-şeş sal in li vir vebûye, ev cemiya vebûye. It's been roughly five or six years since it opened here, this gathering has opened.
Bajarê kê vebûye? Whose city has opened?
Bajar li vir heye erê. Teqrîben 5 sal e. The city is here, yes. For about 5 years.
Me li kû derê çêdikin bajarê we? Where do they build your city?
Bajar em çêdikin, me teswîr kirîye. Li wê derê binêre derê menen. We are building the city, we have pictured it. Look over there, the doors are staying.
Ji derve tên, gundên derdor tên û derdixin û milet derê, tiştê xwe dikire. They come from outside, the surrounding villages come and take out, and people go out, buying their things.
Û ew şuxulê van jin, şuxulê werşan, dema hûn çêdikin hûn dibin kû derê? And the work of these women, the work of the workshops, when you make them, where do you take them?
Ê ji werşan naha ê montîncîn hene, û kesê wek di bêje ku tesdîr dikin hene. From the workshops, now there are assemblers, and there are people who export.
Ew nahêlin li Efrîn. Merkezên mezin hene, ewan jî didin werşeyên piçûk... They don't leave it in Afrin. There are big centers, they also give to the small workshops...
Ha, yanî ne tenê xort di kar dikin. Keç jî hene? Oh, so it's not only boys working. Are there girls too?
Keç jî hene, erê... Li vir wextê em anîn, li Efrînê merkezên xwe yê reîsî hene. Awana didin werşeyên piçûk. There are girls too, yes... Here when we brought them, they have their main centers in Afrin. They give them to the small workshops.
Li vir dixebitin, bidaetê didin wan, ew ê êdî tesdîrê derve dikin: Heleb, Şamê... They work here, give them the goods, and they export it abroad: Aleppo, Damascus...
Ê... Erbilê, Kurdistana Iraqê. Dişînin Tirkiyê, dişînin Ewropa. Erbil, Iraqi Kurdistan. They send it to Turkey, they send it to Europe.
Ez ê pirsyekê din jî te bikim. I will ask you another question.
Gundê Maratê, bi çi navdar e? What is the village of Maratê famous for?
Tu gund bi semaqê ye. Tu semaq tû tixeriweyê. Some villages are known for sumac. You look at sumac.
Naha e pir... naha ihtimada e pir li ser zeytûnê ye. Now a lot... now the reliance is mostly on olives.
Destpêkê me got li ser hinaran bû. Initially, we said it was on pomegranates.
Hinar jî naha netîceya ku wek tê bêje av nema. The pomegranates too now, as a result of, as you say, water running out.
Hinar hişk bûn, naha tu dibînî li pêşiyê we, darên hinarê... em me dîtin. The pomegranates dried up, now you see in front of you, pomegranate trees... we saw them.
Li vir gelî bû, av tê re yawmî diçû. Here it was a valley, water flowed through daily.
Dar hebûn. Êdî av kêm bû, dar hişk bûn. Îhtîmada piranî naha li ser zeytûnê ye. There were trees. Then water decreased, trees dried up. The main reliance now is on olives.
Li ser zeytûnê ye. Em dibihîzin Maratê, bîstan jî li ser rêyê kêlek... tebê bîstan jî li gundê we da hene? It's on olives. We hear Maratê, orchards also along the road... maybe there are orchards in your village too?
Bîstan hene, ekîd. Bîstan hene. Rez hene. Çandinî hene. There are orchards, sure. There are orchards. There are vineyards. There is agriculture.
Yanî kesê ku bîr kolay e, di nav erda xwe de diçînin, her tiştkî diçînin. I mean, whoever has dug a well, they plant in their land, they plant everything.
Ez ê pirsyek din te bikim. Gundê te. Maratê. Berê rind bû yan naha rind e? I will ask you another question. Your village. Maratê. Was it better before or is it better now?
Naha her zarfekî awayê xwe hene. Naha Maratê berê, berê di jîngeha xwe ya tebîî da.. Now every era has its own way. Now Maratê before, before in its natural environment...
Di jîngeha, wek dibêje, ji gîyayê der dor, berê rind bû. In the environment, as they say, with the surrounding grass, it was better before.
Ekîd berê rind bû. Sure, it was better before.
Berê rind bû. Yanî te ji cewiya Maratê, bînaya Maratê... It was better before. I mean, the atmosphere of Maratê, the buildings of Maratê...
...wek dibêje wek kaniyên Maratê, her tiştkî xwedî xwezayî û dar û ber. ...as they say, like the springs of Maratê, everything had its nature and trees.
Ekîd xweş bû. Naha ne xweş bûye. It was definitely nice. Now it is not nice.
Naha kêmbûye. Û kanî jî hişk bûne ha? Now it has decreased. And the springs have dried up too, right?
Kanî jî hişk bûn, erê. The springs have dried up too, yes.
Belê xalo, navê gundê Maratê, ji kû derê hatiye? Xwezayî we zanin bin. Yes uncle, where does the name of the village Maratê come from? Naturally, you should know.
Gundê Maratê bi xwe mesadir pir in. The village of Maratê itself has many sources.
Yanî her hinek bi rengekî çêra dikin. Yek jê... I mean, everyone expresses it differently. One of them...
Ji "moxara" hatiye, moxara... It comes from "maghara" (cave), maghara...
Navê tevdî, di nav dîrokê kevin, heta dighêjin merheleyê em naha tê de... The mixed name, in ancient history, until we reach the stage we are in now...
Pir teqeyurat tê de çêdibin, di nav herfan de çêdibin, terkîbê da çêdibin... Many changes happen in it, they happen in the letters, they happen in the structure...
Ji moxarê hatîye, moxara... Maratê.. ew bû ye. Ev mesdarekî ye. It came from maghara (cave), maghara... Maratê... that's what it became. This is one source.
Aşûriyan... Mesdarek din Assyrians... Another source
Romanî... Roman...
Xasî mantiqek xweş bû û bînê wê û darên wê û tiştên wê xweş bûn. Specifically it was a nice area and its smell and its trees and its things were nice.
Di beje melîkek romanî, nexweş bû, nexweşyekê dîrokî.. navê xwe Maryos bû. They say a Roman king was sick, a historic illness.. his name was Maryos.
Maryos bû... It was Maryos...
Evo nexweş bû. Wek bi nexweşîya rabu. Şebîhe bi rabu bû. He was sick. Like he got sick with asthma. It was similar to asthma.
Xwestin cîkî pak, cîhekî ba wî pak, hewa wê pak, herê lê wê bahse... They wanted a clean place, a place with clean wind, clean air, to take him there...
De mintaqê gîdan nêrîn xêrî.. wek dibêje çem.. kaniyê mezin, belkî ji di van şikatan da bîyê.. In the whole area they looked, except for.. as they say river.. big spring, maybe in these complaints..
Maryos. Ji Maryos... Maryos. From Maryos...
...bû Maratê. ...it became Maratê.
Mesdarek din niha ko Mart... Mart, bi xwe, dê qedîse ye. Another source is now that Mart... Mart, itself, is a saint.
Yanî ev di zimanê horiyan de.. Mart.. qedîse. I mean this is in the Hurrian language.. Mart.. saint.
Mesdarek din di bêje ji wê hatîye, ji wê.. ew e tiştî hatîye... Mart, Maratê ev bû ye. Another source says it came from that, from that.. it came from that thing... Mart, Maratê it became.
Mesdarek jî... evo, nêzîkî wî yanî çêdibe, hind Ermenî çêra dikin. Another source... this one, it is close to it, I mean it happens, some Armenians talk about it.
Wek di dîrokê Ermenîyan de, Ermenî berî me bi 600-700 sal dihatin. Di bên em li vir bûn. Like in Armenian history, Armenians came 600-700 years before us. They say we were here.
Eh, li Maratê. Yanî destpêkê navê xwe "Gora el Maratiyan" bû. Eh, in Maratê. I mean initially its name was "Gora el Maratiyan".
Gorye kîye? What is Gorye?
Gor, asle xwe dê Ermenî ye. Ermenî. Gor, its origin is Armenian. Armenian.
Ha, ev sê meseder hene? Ah, there are three sources?
Dê meseder hene.. wek di beje... bes ev e pirr nêzîkî mentiqê di bîne. There are sources.. as they say... but this brings it closer to logic.
Eh... wekî Aşurî ya hatî înne "moxara" ji ber ko meşhûr e bi şikeftan. Eh... like Assyrian came that it's "maghara" because it's famous for caves.
Ew, ew belkîm nêzîk e. Yanî hingê ji tebê jin "Mar" hatîye. "Mar" ji "Me'r" serwê re çêra dikin... That, that is probably close. I mean then they say "Mar" came. "Mar" they talk about it from "Me'r"...
Ev belkî mezaîf hebe. Navê wê mesdarî. This probably has weaknesses. The name of that source.
Naha em hatin cîhêkî... Xalê Ebdilqahar em hanîn vî derê. Ji ber ku yekê vê cîhî kevnar e, pêşbarî me bikin û maneyê wî jî bibînin. Now we came to a place... Uncle Abdulqahar brought us here. Because this is an ancient place, introduce us to it and let's see its meaning.
Dibêjin ku ev cîhî gelekî kevn e, jêre di bêjin 'Mekbez'. Ew Mekbeze tu qasî te di dîtê, em wek wî makbezî mehî ne diye. They say this place is very old, they call it 'Mekbez' (Olive press). As far as you can see this Mekbez, we have not seen a makbez like it.
Xalê Ebdilqahar, te ji me re... tu ji me ra bêje... ev mekbazo tu me'ne wî di xwestiye. Di çend salan de ye? Çi dîrî, çî têde di kirin? Uncle Abdulqahar, you... you tell us... what is the meaning of this makbaz. How many years old is it? What happened, what did they do in it?
Destpêkê, wextê zeytûnê av gihane... makbezê hedîs tune bûn. Makbezên kevin he bûn. Initially, when olives got water... there were no modern presses. There were old presses.
Du makbez gundê Maratê de he bûn. Ev makbaza Rêsul e wer di bîn. There were two presses in the village of Maratê. This is Resul's press as you can see.
Makbazeke belkî emrê wê nayê kêmî 150 salî ye. A press that is probably no less than 150 years old.
200 sal he. Maybe 200 years.
Tê de adî bû. Bi delîbê he bû. It was normal inside. It was with an animal.
Ne hedîs bû. It was not modern.
Delîb kevirê xwe he bûn... e.. çewalik... zeytûnê vala dikirin û delîbê di avêtin bin qantirê.. di gerîya... The animal had its stones... uh... a sack... they emptied the olives and threw the animal under the mule... it turned...
Ba di tuneyî de gûvaşt. So in the process it squeezed them.
Di guvaşt û zeyt jê der diket. Yanî ne paşê pê ra merheleya palîş û ne palîş û derket, derket.. destpêkê evo tenê bû. Squeezed and oil came out of it. I mean not after that with the stage of polishing and not polishing and came out, came out.. initially this was it alone.
Evo eqdem... eqdem mekbaz e di mantiqa Efrînê da, belkîm di alemê de jî. This is the oldest... oldest press in the Afrin area, maybe in the world too.
Yanî eqdem kevirê wî kevin e. Destpêkê yanî girêyek kevin em di kin. I mean its oldest stone is old. In the beginning, we make an old knot.
Ew cîhê kevn di yek, kûrtên zeytê dane, me got, emrê xwe ser 150 sal lê ra he... That old place in one, the oil bags are given, we said, its age is over 150 years...
Yanî pêşî wê ew kê bûye ew kî bûye we avê din e. I mean before that, who was it, who was it, you threw it.
Ti nezane kî bîne. You don't know who they are.
Xelkê gund di tê da kar dikir? The village people worked in it?
Kar dikirin milet di te di... Zeytûn gî di hatin vir. People worked in it... All the olives came here.
Yek ev e he bû yek, yek jî mekbazek dî he bû... di werên ev male av e bûye.. di kevin ha.. male Heç Ezet bû. Ezetiya aliyê fe There was one, there was also another press... this house had water.. in the old.. it was Hech Ezet's house. Ezet on the fe side
Dê mekbaz... Paşê hedîs çê bûn, hedîs çê bûn. Çê bûn. mekbaza Ebdulrahman Yûsiv vêrdi bîn. Û mekbaza Heç Alî... The presses... Then modern ones were made, modern ones were made. Made. Abdulrahman Yusuf's press is here. And Hech Ali's press...
Ev hedîs na, çê bûn.. Bes di kavil hê bûn. These are modern, they were made.. But they were in ruins.
Ê ev, vê cîyê wê isteh'mal ne kin.. der ne kin.. wekî berê ne kin.. And this, this place they won't use it.. they won't open it.. they won't make it like before..
De go ye te em der derdikevin? Are you saying we are going out?
Keç nêzîk e nabe... The girl is close, it can't be...

...me pale diçînî... me şixre dikişandin... ...we harvested... we pulled the sieve...
...me bulxur dikelandin... ...we boiled bulgur...
...me ten-tenê çêdikirin... qenevîç çêdikirin... ...we made lace... made cross-stitch...
Ev noka ev tişt neman... These now these things didn't remain...
Noka ez derbasî vê mala kevin... dixwazim ji te... Now I enter this old house... I want from you...
...noka lawê te hunermend e... ...now your son is an artist...
Dixwazim bizanibim... Yes...
Dixwazim bizanibim... I want to know...
...çi mesûliyet dikeve ser te... ...what responsibility falls on you...
...piştî ku we em bibêjin... ...after that you let's say...
...tu di vê malê de yî... ...you are in this house...
...dema evê hunermendek heye, mêvan tên cem we, nan tên cem we dixwin, çawa ye wiya? ...when there is this artist, guests come to you, they come to you to eat bread, how is that?
Ê lê wekî pûziyê xwe pê radikin... Eh but like they raise their nose with it (we are proud)...
...gelek tên cem me... li tembûrê jî dixin... ...many come to us... they play the tembûr too...
Xanedê dekoloman. The dekoloma families.
Derdikete dawetê, we bi xefan anîne, bi xefan anîne. Gî wan e. Îşta ew a rinda wan e kî. They would go out to the wedding, they would bring it secretly, they would bring it secretly. All of them. That was their beauty.
Ê lê me çi dît. But what did we see...
De kêf xweş bû wê çaxê? So it was joyful back then?
Ê lê me ra kêf te ke, em şa dibin. Cimaetê xwe tînin, gulê didin, kêf dikin. Rind e. To us, the joy is when we are happy, when we bring our community together, give a rose, have fun. It's beautiful.
Belê. Niha em werin ser dema we tê da, çiye? Çi karî dike, çi nakin? Yes. Now let's come to your era, what is it? What work do you do, what don't you do?
Ê de her kes karê xwe dike, ê da îşte ê heye şîvê xwe dike, ê heye bi ar dikute, ê heye... herin karekî dikin. Everyone does their own work, some make their food, some pound flour, some go and do some work.
Ê noko ji ew tiştan nemayî. Em bi hev bikevin berî cêz vira derdixistin. But now those things are gone. Before we would get together, they would take out the dowry here.
Rind bû, noko ev tiştan nemayî. It was good, now those things are no more.
Bes tên, dibin derê, dibin salê, da dawetê dikin e, nawa da dawetê dikin. They just come, take them outside, take them to the hall, they hold the wedding, like this they hold the wedding.
Hine jî hene der... There are some outside...
Hine çêdikin e. Lê evî turasî kevin jî, gî de heye. Some still do it. This old heritage is still there.
Ê nasê turasê kevin jî gund da heye. Jinkê jî dibên, hine jî distirin, anî ew turasan hîn gî heye. The knowledge of the old heritage is still in the village. Women still sing, some still sing, meaning this heritage is still there.
Li dema we da ev tiştan çêdibin? In your time did these things happen?
E do mora we de heye, dibin de dibin salê, çêdikin. In your time they exist, they take them to the hall, they do it.
E da wekî din jî îşta wa no ye e de nizanin. Ê berê gi zani bûn. And as for the rest, they don't know it. In the past, they all knew.
E berê hevala jî zanî şîvêt kevin jî zanî. In the past, the friends knew, they knew how to make the old foods.
E noko wane nizanin e ev demên zemanî nizanin. Now they don't know, this era doesn't know.
Ê çî mekteb e wî, ew kar wi zemanî nizanin e, ew zemanê berî gî zane bo ken e... The school made it so this era doesn't know, in the past era they all knew how to do it.
Berê di xwandin, nedixwendin? In the past did they study or not?
E de xwendin e hebekî kêm bû gund da, mekteb kêm bû. Noko li gund da giya mekteb heye. There was some studying but it was little, schools were few in the village. Now there are schools everywhere in the village.
E xwend jî korê kevin nizanin bikin. Ê lê.. e wa zemanî nizanin e zemanî berî gî zanin bikin. Even if they studied, they don't know how to do the old work. This era doesn't know, the past era all knew how to do it.
Şîvêt bariyê, em tahn jî dikirin, qene wê çêdikirin tahn tahna, e noko nizanin bikên, e berî gî dkirin. The food of the past, we also used to make tahini, we used to make it properly, now they don't know how to do it. In the past they all did it.
Xaltî te çend salê hatî vî darî, ta vî darî morkor? Aunt, at what age did you come to this place, did you get married here?
Walle pancî sal e no ho tome vira no hon o zonim... Çore na.. elê pancî sal e ho tome vî derê walle di jî hon a nizanin. By God, I came here fifty years ago, I don't know exactly. Four? No. Yes, fifty years ago I came here.
Dastpekî wexta hatine ta xwastine ta zanî malbateki hunarmanda? In the beginning when they came to ask for your hand, did you know it was a family of artists...
Na nedbû, no min nizanî wan e, ez bes vî gundî min nedîbû. No it wasn't, no I didn't know it was them, I hadn't even seen this village, I didn't know.
De wexta got te were vê derê te ne tirsî? Mîvanan gî da pir bin û xelkê kî werin, hunermendkî werin gund ... And when they told you to come here weren't you scared? The guests would be many, people would come, artists would come...
Na mîvanê malî bavkê min jî pir bîn, hawirê wan jî pir bîn, mîvanê xwelya bîn, ma hatime vê derê jî mîvanê xwe wa ne. No, my father's house also had many guests, their surroundings also had many, they had their own guests. When I came here these were their guests...
Te got vê derê çanda te çû dî? Xelkê gund... When you came here what culture did you see? The people of the village...
Rind bû. Xelkê gund o çî bû, wekî hat em maro xerîbe dikirin, xelkek rabe de bistiye am wekî wanan halin, am çi bikin. Wa maro xerîb bû, mara bi hev rabû distînen, maro ji xelkê hez kir, xelk jî ji me ra hez kir. It was good. People were strangers to me, but the people stood by me, what could I do. Yes, I was a stranger, we stood by each other, they loved us, we loved them.
Spasiya te dikim. I thank you.
Saeta te xweş xaltî. Have a good time, aunt.
Te jî xweş e, ehlen wa sehlen. Mîr te seleme, can xweş. You too, welcome. Give my greetings to the prince, good health.
Temaşevanên meyî hêja. Naha em hatine cihekî, cihekî gelekî kevin e li vî derê li gundê Maratê. Our esteemed viewers. Now we have come to a place, a very old place here in the village of Maratê.
Ev cîhe, bi navê Aş e. This place is called the Mill.
Emê naha bizanibin, ku di vî derê da berê çi dikirin. We will now find out what they used to do here in the past.
Merheba. Em destpêkê te nas bikin. Hello. Let's get to know you first.
Ehlen û sehlen. Elî Maratî. Welcome. Elî Maratî.
Ev cihê ku em niha lê, bi navê aş a. Di vir da hûn çi dikin? Çi karî dikin? This place we are in right now is called the mill. What do you do here? What work do you do?
Genim em tînin, em dikin ard. We bring wheat, we turn it into flour.
Çawa? Ewî ji me ra hewal de. How? Tell us about it.
Genim em di vir da boş dikin. Tabî ayarê xwe hene. Û di vir da ard derdikeve. Ma ne xelkê gundê xwe ya. We empty the wheat in here. Of course, it has its settings. And flour comes out from here. For the people of our village.
Û xêncî wî ardî? Yanî genim wextê hûn tînin tu vir de hûn boş dikin di vir… And besides that flour? I mean when you bring the wheat you empty it in here...
Di vir da ard derdikeve dibe ard e. Flour comes out from here, it becomes flour.
Hûn noko pê kar dikin, pê kar nakin? Do you still work with it now, or not?
Noko haliyan masekinandî ne, nax. Right now we have stopped, no.
Temenê vê çiqas e? Yanî kani bibêjî vê çend salan ev... How old is this? I mean can you tell how many years old this is...
Teqrîben şêst û sê salan e. It is approximately sixty-three years old.
Î qalî me da. Bafkê me... bafkê me jî da me. Şêst û sê sal e emrê xwe ye. It was left to us. My father... my father gave it to us. Its age is sixty-three years.
Wû çima hûn noka pê kar nakin? And why do you not work with it now?
Be ew ê nemon. Azmê da den neman. Noko ard der a ya... Or de ye, firne hen e. Dar hene, ardê firnê ha ye... Those days are gone. The times are gone. Now there is flour outside... There is flour, there are bakeries. There are trees, there is bakery flour...
Spasiya te dikim. Saeta te xweş. I thank you. Have a good time.
Ehlan û sehlan xwedê ji we razî be, ehlan û sehlan. Welcome. May God be pleased with you, welcome.
Merheba xalê min. Hello my uncle.
Ehlan wa sehlan. Welcome.
Em te nas bikin. Navê te çiye? Let's get to know you. What is your name?
Navê min Ebdilraûf Çawîş. Ji Maratê. My name is Ebdilraûf Çawîş. From Maratê.
Teweldê min, hezar û neh sed û çil û pênc. My birth year is nineteen forty-five.
Em, mala... Elî Çawîş in maro dibên. Malek mixtîr, ji babo kalo da... We are the family of... Elî Çawîş as they call us. A family of headmen, from our grandfathers and ancestors...
Kanîya Fena. From Kanîya Fena.
Malo mixtîr bû. Dengbêjek li kû bida dihat lê wan û dera rûdiniştin. It was the headman's house. A Dengbêj (singer) from wherever they played would come and sit with them.
Me jî dibîstin. Wekî gotibû poşe em ciçûk bûn, me jî helîn a. We would also listen. As they sang, back then we were little, we also learned.
O pey min in... And after me...
Yanî kilome jî bo... bavkê min. I mean the songs were also... my father.
Xalê min... berî tu... ez dixwazim te ji me ra destpêkê behsa aliyê hunerî bikî, li gundê Maratê. My uncle... before you... I want you to first tell us about the artistic side of the village of Maratê.
Ê ha bû. Yes, it was there.
Çawa... ji kû ve destpêbûye? Kî bûn? Û naha çawa ye? Karî tu... How... where did it start? Who were they? And how is it now? Can you...
Destpêk... malbata ma bîn. Ewdê Hacî bû. It started with our family. It was Ewdê Hacî.
Ê dberê de turosî kevin gî kilomêt giran digotin, wek Dawrêş, wek Dalêl, wek Mamî, wekî Siyabend û Xecê, Cebelî. In the past, the old heritage, they would sing the heavy songs, like Dawrêş, like Dalêl, like Mamî, like Siyabend and Xecê, Cebelî.
Ev kilamêt kevin, gî vî mola... Ewdê Hecî digotin. These old songs, they all sang them in Ewdê Hecî's house.
J' barê aza do hotin. Wekî do hotin bal ve... ew dkirn... yê am daxwezê e vî daxweze. They came from before me. As they came, they would do it... the ones that wanted it, wanted it.
Yanî pir, ji berê aza da hoten, jinava destêrnin... bi kolamet kevin turoset kevin radioyin ef do. Meaning a lot of them, from before me, women sang them... they would sing the old songs, the old heritage.
Ev kilaman ji kû danîn? Where did they get these songs from?
Kolome... bob o kalo da... dişt o helîna bîn a kolamet kevin... Songs... from our ancestors... they learned these things, the old songs...
Dî pê ra cawarê ke habî, navî Cubarê Ezîz bî wî jî dsitira, sazbend bî... Zanete xwî hew bî... After that, there was a neighbor named Cubarê Ezîz, he also sang, he was a musician... his art was that...
Bofkê min dedo a... tamûr ji bob o ko do cam ma hey e. My father gave it... the tembûr (lute) is with us from our ancestors.
Ê af çend solî de bohîst tî tewe dbi... And at what age did you hear it, that you say...
Eh a wene eem pîçek bîn e az kê bo heseb kime take... Back then we were a bit small, I don't calculate it...
Berî bavê te, barî bafê ta... Before your father, before your father...
Berî bofê mon e az te... malboto molî Elî Çawîş bî. J' Ehmed Reşo do jî. Before my father, I tell you... it was the family of Elî Çawîş. And from Ehmed Reşo.
Wekî dgotin... Ehmed Raşo dî solê hazor e nahsad i çel e yoko dî rehmetî bî. As they said... Ehmed Raşo passed away in the year nineteen forty-one.
Bofkê me e Muhammed î o Elî e... Tofke penon... ev opî me bîn, ê Abo Ehmed lo romzî ho yo... bofki vî e Mohammid î o Alî o Ahmad to. Our father, Muhammed and Elî and... wait... these were our uncles, and Abo Ehmed who is Romzî... the father of Muhammed and Alî and Ahmad.
Wonojî... îşte yikî jik helo no yuk ji yuk holano o ma ji. And them too... they took it one by one, one learned from the other, and us too.
Mextoriya ji baba kolo jı des malboto moli Elî Çawîş do yo. The headmanship is also in the hands of the Elî Çawîş family from our ancestors.
O war xonio mon a honia mo yok a. Do Morotê do honio ma yak o a e ma sar sof tah a... And our house is one. In Maratê our house is one, we are headstrong...
Te bahsa kase ke... Did you work with someone...
E mon? Me?
Ma god poşa çî tatowir dî em conin bibe e vi tişto dorkito dor a.. I said then what developed, we can say these things came out.
Wallah be sarohet be xwaz e borê ayp bî. Mado xwes tomûrê kilamo do u dangî me wî çaqî baş bî a... e ciwan bî a, mokoni pad a e ji baba kami daben dawa jo dagon qaçekî to teden klamo. By God, to be honest, in the past it was a shame. We wanted the tembûr and the songs, and our voice was good at that time... we were young, they didn't let us, my father would hit us with a stick so we wouldn't sing.
E baari ayp bî. Nuko na eyb a. Nuko zonoeta bî yo zonaat a bî turasi kavin sor balîndi ya ma pî kaf xoş dobo u harsonk e e odnan jê zono e yo e maselan liyo. That was a shame in the past. Now it's not a shame. Now it has become a profession, it has become an old heritage, a pride that one is happy about, and Adnan knows... for example.
O rojo vî cima Cimo Bokir ha... je von marye tişê jînin ba şo rtn gundê cî dbon tîswêr do kon alôm bado doken ha awi surbilindi ko ja mar e a wonê bo debîn in cû ji ma doxozin jo... Today Cimo Bakir... from these men who play, they film what happens in the village and broadcast it to the world. This is a pride for us. And they say what do they want from us...
Ka noko em werin ser xwedengê, aliyê hunerî. Let's come to your singing, the artistic side.
E. Yes.
Te çawa tê da kar kir? Destpêkê te çawa bû? Kê hîşt tu bikevî evê karî? How did you work in it? How was your beginning? Who let you get into this work?
Destpêka min... ez salê hezar û neh sed û şêstî da ez didim kilama heta noko. My beginning... I have been singing since the year nineteen sixty until now.
Hezar û neh sed û... Nineteen hundred and...
Şêstî. Sixty.
Şirîtên te hene? Do you have tapes?
Şirîta min hene. Mihemed Emîn heye, Ayş heye, Zêno Zêneb heye, Gul heye. I have tapes. I have "Mihemed Emîn", I have "Ayş", I have "Zêno Zêneb", I have "Gul".
Dawicên heya, Xamîz zolam heya, Mehm heya, Mehmud Emîn heya, ê me gelek tişt dîtin wê derê. Dawicên was there, Xamîz was there, Mehm was there, Mehmud Emîn was there, we saw many things there.
Kêşek hebû, yanî keşek hunerî hebû? There was an atmosphere, I mean, there was an artistic atmosphere?
Meraqebû. Tiştek jê meraqa xwerû, ez jî qîzîm meraqa xwerû. It was curiosity. It was a pure curiosity, I also had a pure curiosity.
Min meselan, min meraqek min hebû, yekî kilamekê digot min fawren wî hildidan. For example, I had a curiosity, when someone sang a song, I immediately recorded it.
Min misecil dikir min vedişart, eynî min wî hildidan. I used to record and hide it, I just kept them.
Kê bi te re yekemîn stran got destpêkê? Who sang the first song with you at the beginning?
Yekemîn car kî bû wele dizanim. Digo ha Ebdilreûf hat. The first time, by God, I don't know who it was. They would say Ebdilreûf has come.
Ê kê, dîroka wê, me çi dît dikir, meselan... And who, the history of it, what we used to do, for example...
Dawet dikirin? Did you do weddings?
Belê, û xeynî dawetan. Yes, and besides weddings.
Yanî ev mîvanên ku em behsa wan dikin. Em diçûn ba Abdulreuf Çawîş, yan jî em diçûn ba Xelîl, yan jî Mehmud Emîn, yan jî ev Zeyn û Zeyneb dihatin. Em diçûn ba wan, ew dihatin. I mean the guests we are talking about. We went to Abdulreuf Çawîş, or we went to Xelîl, or Mehmud Emîn, or Zeyn and Zeyneb came. We went to them, they came.
Heta sibehê me stran digotin, me wek tiştek xweş didît. Stran dihatin gotin, hawîrdor û derdor tev tijî dibû. We sang songs until morning, we found it beautiful. Songs were sung, and the surroundings and everywhere would get full.
Ev di Newrozan de bûn, an tenê wisa şevbêrk bûn? Was this during Newroz, or just regular night gatherings?
Na na, tenê şevbêrk bûn. No, no, they were just night gatherings.
Tenê li derdora gundê Efrînê bû. Yan derve de jî hebûn? Was it only around the villages of Efrîn? Or were there others from outside?
Gundê me yê Efrînê, yan jî di dema Almanyayê de em her tim wisa bûn. Our village in Efrîn, or during the time in Germany, we were always like this.
Dema ku ez gazî wan dikim, meselan ez dibêjim vaye filan kes heye, ez dixwazim meselan em herin ba wan, an ew bên ba me, hunermend Abdulreuf Çawîş. When I called them, for example, I would say, "Look, so-and- so is here, I want us to go to them, or them to come to us," like the artist Abdulreuf Çawîş.
Ji malbata te, kesên ku mîna te stran digotin hebûn? In your family, were there others who sang like you?
Tinebûn, wey bavê min! Ez wisa dibînim, kesên wek Abdulreuf Çawîş weke wan tînebû. There were none, oh my father! The way I see it, there was no one like Abdulreuf Çawîş.
Tu kîjan stranê ji me re bêjî? Which song will you sing for us?
Stranek kîjan be ez ê wê bêjim. I will sing whichever song it is.
Stranek ku tu pir hez dikî, ku tu her gav bi bîr tînî... A song that you really like, one that you always remember...
Ez ji kîjan hez dikim ezê wî bêjim. I will sing the one I like.
Tu stranên wan dizanî? Do you know their songs?
Ev cewab ji wan tê. Ez ê yek ji stranan bêjim. This answer comes from them. I will sing one of the songs.
Kerem bike. Go ahead.
Em stranekê, silavekê, weke te dît em niha bi wî rengî destpê dikin û wisa pêşkêş dikin. Li ser vê mijarê jî em van stranan didin û ev jî ji her kesî re ye. A song, a greeting, as you saw, we start like this and present it this way. On this topic, we sing these songs, and this is for everyone.
Ew jî, me evan wek di bernameyan de me digot, em her dem stranan dibêjin, wek me jî dît, her kesên ku stran digotin Abdulreuf Çawîş, yan jî... They also, as we used to say in the programs, we always sang songs, as we also saw, everyone who sang songs, like Abdulreuf Çawîş, or...
Fevzî, yan jî evana, hemû... Adnan Bekir... Fevzî, or these people, all of them... Adnan Bekir...
Belê kerem bike. Yes, go ahead.
Heylê... heylê heylê... heylê.. Heyle... heyle heyle... heyle..
Lê lê berxê te yê bîbawer ganî, te we re bese îro sebebe te yê, te yê bîbawer ganî, te we re bese.. Oh my dear, your unfaithful lover, enough of you today, you are the cause, your unfaithful lover, enough of you today...
Vê sibê ev xalqê xirabkirî şam, qut kir, şevê serê xwe da ber dîwaran, rûnişt û giriya, rastî giriyan.. This morning, these corrupted people of Damascus, cut off, at night he laid his head against the walls, sat and cried, truly cried...
Sing û berê te wek taximek fîncanên fîne ye.. heylê... heylê... heylê... heylê... Your chest and bosom are like a set of fine cups... heyle... heyle... heyle... heyle...
Eger tu bêbextiyê, moriyê, berbi jêr, eger tu bixwazî destê min bitikînî, bê derheqî te... If you betray, like an ant, downwards, if you want to touch my hand, unfairly to you...
Eceb di can û cesedê min, tu neyê, Mehemedî tê fêhmkirin.. Wonder in my soul and body, you don't come, Mehemedi is understood...
Mehemedî tê fêhmkirin, bê tirsa wê tirsa te, mafê min mecbûr bike, destê xwe te bike, serê kêşan teresî ye... Mehemedi is understood, without the fear of your fear, force my right, put your hand out, pulling the head is terror...
Berxê min, kêşan dewîsî, karê min.. berxê min, gundî, xwîniyane, heylê heylê... heylê heylê.. My dear, pulling is pressing, my work... my dear, villagers are bloodthirsty, heyle heyle... heyle heyle..
Heylê... Heyle...
Vê sibê dibêjin, te ker... berxê min, dibêjin te ker... This morning they say, you donkey... my dear, they say you donkey...
Nizanim tuyê kar bî, te asê nekir, nizanim tuyê daxwazên xwe pêk bînî... I don't know if you'll be useful, you didn't fortify, I don't know if you'll fulfill your wishes...
Bîstekê, kulekî lez, ez diçim, dema... For a moment, a quick wound, I am going, when...
Berxê min eger ez li ser hikûm û textê xwe rûniştibim, ez ê bi tenê xwe... My dear, if I were sitting on my rule and throne, I would be alone...
Wê wextê ez destê xwe nadim tu kesî, ji canê min nayê... At that time, I will not give my hand to anyone, it doesn't come from my soul...
Min dît ku li ser deşta xweşiyê, xelkê xwe neda paş... I saw that on the plain of happiness, people didn't hold back...
Heylê... heylê... heylê... heylê... Heyle... heyle... heyle... heyle...
Hatin hewşa jiyanê, mala xwe bi cîh kir, moriyan ser xwe reşandin, They came to the courtyard of life, settled their home, scattered ants over themselves,
Heval û cîranên li ser min kom bûn, min got sar e... Friends and neighbors gathered over me, I said it's cold...
Dengê te gelek xweş e. Ez dixwazim ku tu straneke din jî bibêjî. Lê vê carê li ser Efrînê be. Your voice is very beautiful. I want you to sing another song. But this time about Efrîn.
Ne welle tu stranek li ser Efrînê nayê bîra min. No, by God, I can't remember a song about Efrîn.
Straneke kî tê bîra te? Whose song do you remember?
Mehmud Emîn bû. It was Mehmud Emîn's.
Ez di wê demê de, ez dibêjim 15 salî bûm. Ez bi wî re dilîstim. Vêga got, Seydo em herin ber derî. Em çûn û me dest pê kir. At that time, I was maybe 15 years old. I used to play with him. Then he said, "Seydo, let's go outside." We went and started.
Wî jî distira, ez jî. Heta ku Mehmud Emîn çû. Em diçûn deştê, me dît kesekî din jî tê. Em pê re bûn. He was singing, and so was I. Until Mehmud Emîn left. We used to go to the field, we saw someone else coming. We were with him.
Em jî aşiq bûn. Leyla û Mecnûn bûn. Ez bi temamî nizanim bê kî bûn. We were in love too. Like Leyla and Mecnun. I don't know exactly who they were.
Dibêjin... They say...
Belê. Yes.
Kîjan stran e ew? Which song is that?
Mehmud Emîn bi tenê bû. Mehmud Emîn was alone.
Ew wisa difikirî ku bibe yek ji mîran. He was thinking of becoming one of the princes.
Ew bi navê Siêrtê bû. He was known as Siêrt.
Li Tirkiyeyê. In Turkey.
Ji bajarê Siêrtê bû. He was from the city of Siêrt.
Bavê wê mîrê eyaletekê bû, xwedan hezar malî bû, tek û tenê bû, yê xwediyê malê bû. Her father was the prince of a province, he owned a thousand houses, he was the only one, the owner of the house.
Umrê bavê wê heştê salî bû. Wê dît ku eger ew bimre, wê tu kes nema bimîne. Her father was eighty years old. She saw that if he died, there would be no one left.
Ew di odeya xwe de diman. Gava ez çûm wê derê, min ew bi mirinê dîtin. They stayed in their room. When I went there, I saw them with death.
Û wisa dest pê kir. And so it started.
Wî mîrê eyaletê... Bajarê Siêrtê... Got, emîn... emîn... emîn... emîn... That prince of the province... The city of Siêrt... Said, emin... emin... emin... emin...
Eman... ez dibêjim... delalê min dibêje... sed carî ez dibêjim delalê min e... Eman... I say... my beautiful one says... a hundred times I say she is my beautiful one...
Delalê min e... wey... vê sibê... min xwe berda wê deşta berîkan... ez daketim odeyê û mektebê... She is my beautiful one... oh... this morning... I let myself down to that plain of pockets... I went down to the room and school...
Yarê min... ev der hemû cîhan e... min nedît wek te... My love... this whole place is the world... I haven't seen anyone like you...
Ez dixwazim bibînim def û dawetan, tevî ku bi tenê me... I want to see the drums and weddings, even though I am alone...
Bi giranî ez nikanim bimeşim, di nav vê rewşa xirab de... yarê min... bi van destan ez te digirim... Heavily I cannot walk, in this bad situation... my love... with these hands I hold you...
Eman... eman... eman... eman... eman... Eman... eman... eman... eman... eman...
Tu destê xwe nadeyî kesî... bi rastî... ez te nabînim... You don't give your hand to anyone... truly... I don't see you...
Ji bo me ne wisa ye... dema tu nebî bi rastî em hejar in... Belê ez te dibînim, lê nayêm dîtin... It's not like that for us... when you're not here we are truly poor... Yes I see you, but I am not seen...
Yarê min, min qebûl nake, ma tu min wek xwe nabînî... yarê min... ev der hemû cîhan e... My love, she doesn't accept me, do you not see me as yourself... my love... this whole place is the world...
Ma em yek in? Ger tu berî min bimrî, ew ê dilê min bişkîne... Are we one? If you die before me, it will break my heart...
Ez ê bi qurbana te bim... tu ê berî min bimrî... I will be your sacrifice... you will die before me...
Emîn... eman... eman... eman... Emin... eman... eman... eman...
Lo bavo... lo bavo... lo bavo... lo bavo... Oh father... oh father... oh father... oh father...
Bav û namerdê bê edal î mirê bega... O cowardly and unjust father, the prince of beys...
Sê çar xwedê hoda... likî dido vê yê. Three or four Gods...
Serê min bi qurban o xwedêkê tu çima vê sibê ji min dikî vomanetê. May my head be a sacrifice, for God's sake, why are you entrusting me this morning.
Ezer nakim ji qapî hezê mektebê yê babo yê. I don't desire the door of the school's love, O father.
Eger bêkim hadanê xwedêkê alimê reb alalime posîtê ye yê. If I have patience, for God's sake, the scholar of the Lord of the worlds will...
Lo babo, min digota eger wekî ez zewicîyama... O father, I used to say, if I were to marry...
Ma zalimê xwedê darê dinê yê... Is the cruel one, God, the tree of the world...
Xazîyam bi canê wî merî, sibe da li berê bêrîvanê gerayê... I wish for the soul of that man, who would wander in front of the milkmaid in the morning.
Bi dest xakê darê misînê avdestê yê... ji wê bişûnda devî xabiptinê qapî hezê mektebê yê û medresê yê. With dust in hand, the copper jug of ablution... and after that, falling asleep at the door, the love of the school and madrasah.
Lo babo... bike çarekê hatimî ye sibê ye, ji min bi gumane kê pêşîkê min bixwaze yê. O father... find a solution, I have come, it is morning, it is doubtful to me who will ask for me first.
Tu were min o, bavê kal î, zinbegî, pîrê halo... mihemed emîn î, kalê, bibîne tu çarekê, îmkanê yê... Come to me, old father... old Halo, Mihemed Emin, old man, bring a solution, a possibility.
Tu were min o, dayîka pîr leylanê, bi dengê, kîban kir, digot ê emîn... Come to me, old mother Leylan, she called out with a voice, saying, O Emin.
Serê min bi qurban o emîn... May my head be a sacrifice, Emin.
Telaya bi tenê wî emîn... The only gold piece, Emin.
Amudê mala min o emîn... The pillar of my house, Emin.
Stûlê kula mezin o emîn... The large pillar of our tent, Emin.
Teqeta pîyê kal û pîran o emîn... The strength of the old man and woman's feet, Emin.
Umîdya min î li erdê dinê da ye wî... You are my hope on the earth of this world.
Tê bike wî bilezînê, yarim vê sibê, tê şorê dayîkê pîr neşkînê. Do it quickly, my love this morning, do not break the word of the old mother.
Tê xebata binyanê tehl e, zûtî rabe xurrakê ji qefesê biderxînê. The work underneath is bitter, get up quickly, let the bird out of the cage.
Zûtî ya ciya xwedêkê ji me re sêvê biptilînê. Quickly, for God's sake, peel the apple for us.
Serî xişîn ba dîçê yaram, xwedêkê tê kêlekê bişidînê wî. The wind rustles past, my love, for God's sake, tighten the side.
Bi çel û dused siwarî mînîçê... With forty and two hundred horsemen...
Lingê xwe bavê rikêbê û zînê... Put his foot in the stirrup and saddle.
Da wî xa bide, kêm û erdê barî basê leylanê. Let him give himself...
Dê belkî bibîne ber malê keça xwa çê yê... Maybe he will bring her to the house, his good daughter.
Zirav û lawikê dest dida fêda pê û caqî me, jê re şên be mala me ava be, bi xelkê namînê yê. A slim boy reached out... may our house be prosperous and joyful, it won't remain for others.
Berê mi ringê yarim, bila bavê kal dayîka pîr kezeba xwe bibîne wî. ... let the old father and the old mother see their beloved.
Heye aman, heye aman, heye aman... Oh alas, oh alas, oh alas.
Serê dayîkê pîr bi qurban o, nebe lo Leylan, bivir e qey namînê wî... May the old mother's head be a sacrifice, let it not be Leylan...
Emîn bi dengê kîban kir go Leylanê... Emin called out with a voice, said Leylan.
Leylanê... Leylanê... Leylanê... Leylan, Leylan, Leylan.
Leylanê... bi tede... marê kî xerab û bê dert û bê derman e. Leylan... with you... which snake is bad and without pain and without cure.
Ti çima vê sibê ji mi dikî vomanet e... Why are you this morning making me a trust...
Temam xewnên xweşa bad didî, şevê gerdakê qadirkê cesye yê. All the sweet dreams you give...
Wextê kî ku tu gav yê, dît û ferzane... When you take a step, saw and wise...
Leylanê tu miradê xwa didînî li ba dinê. Leylan you will get your wish in this world.
Erza li mêrîkî kil, heq qasidî xwa dît û, felekê ser qefesa sîngê mi de sekiniye. ... and fate stood on the cage of my chest.
Leylanê... Xirta can dan e wî... Leylan... It's giving up the ghost...
Ji min bi gerekê pêşkî min bixwaze wî... It is necessary for me first, ask for me...
Derdîkî derdekî giran e, eşqeke saf ax û an e... It's a heavy pain, pure love is sighing and groaning.
Xazîyam bi canê wî merî... I wish for the soul of that man.
Yekê sibedê hilberî qangê rabe. One morning, rising, getting up.
Bi dest xakê darê misînê avdestê ye, bike çarekê letnî ya sibê, bişkîne di dîwanê yî. With dust in hand, the copper jug of ablution, do something, break the morning, in the diwan.
Ji wê bişûnda devî xabiptinê qapî hezê mektebê yê... After that, falling asleep at the door, the love of the school...
Leylanê tasfîrke mialimê reb alalîmê ji quranê wî. Leylan, interpret the teacher of the Lord of the worlds from the Quran.
Heye aman... heye aman... heye aman... Oh alas... oh alas... oh alas...
Felek fani ye Emîn... Fate is mortal Emin.
Benî xwa benî qebze ye... yarim emanetê me rabeyna wî. Its string is grasped... my love the trust...
