my heart, my heart, oh my heart.

Oh dear, by God, in the morning, a fog rises over us,

Gulcan, may God not let her think, the strangers have fallen
upon the commander of sleep.

You are a guest, do not look at me, I do not know if it is a
beast, I do not know if it is a human, by God I dare not
wake up from sleep.

7
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:47,000

When the snow hits the tree, the Bracelet of God [implies a

Dîlawî, dîlawî, dîlawî, dîlawî, Êrebê Mela wî, Hemedê Mela

My heart, my heart, my heart, my heart, oh Ereb of Mela, oh
Hemed of Mela, oh the poverty of Mela, oh my, oh my, oh my.

beast, it is the wild, by God I dare not wake up from sleep.

13

Dîwarê o caxûna Bozê kekê, Senemê Gulcanê xudê nêyo difkire.
 
The walls, oh the times of the brother's Grey Horse, Senem
and Gulcan, may God not let them think.

A voice called out saying: Senem, oh, oh, oh... oh traitor,
oh, oh, mysterious appearance, oh, oh, black-fated one, oh,
oh.

15
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:56,000
Lê Senem, hezar yek navê xwedê xeberdana te xeberê giran e,
cinawirê çolê, benî-adem e, Erebê berê bûk e, xwarinê wî
gilûgiyayê çolê ye.
 
Oh Senem, a thousand and one names of God, your words are
heavy words, the beast of the wild is a human, Ereb is
facing the bride, his food is the grass of the wild.

16
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Vexwarina wî şîrê mî ye. Xwedê zane gava qewacê Ehmed Begê
hatî, xutkirî şetû û delavê Mûsilê lingikê tîrê ye.
 
His drink is sheep's milk. God knows when the army of Ahmed
Beg came, crossing the rivers and fords of Mosul, the leg of
the arrow.

17
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:12,000
Bi şeva nîvê şevê vî ketî bingun e, kekê Bozê siwar e Dephê

the brother of the Grey Horse is the rider of Deph, no one
saw the fog fallen upon the commander of sleep.

şinabê rake ji xewê.
 
Oh dear Senem rise, far away Ereb Hemed is searching for the
sun, do not wake the greedy one from sleep.

From the time that the shepherd Ereb Hemed lifts his head
from sleep.

22
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:46,000

quleyê dê xayîn hatê.
 
He sets his eyes and face towards the plain of 'Anê (Ana),
watchful, if he makes no sound, the tower of the traitor has
come.

23

Senemê dengî ban kir go dîlawî, Êrebê Mela wî, Baqilê Mela
wî.
 
Senem called out with a voice saying: my heart, oh Ereb of
Mela, oh Baqil of Mela.

24
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:56,000
Erebê mi yarim, xwedê zane te xutkirî şetû û delavê Mûsilê
lingikê tîrê ye.
 
Ereb is my beloved, God knows you have crossed the rivers
and fords of Mosul, the leg of the arrow.

25
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Li şeva nîvê şevê tu ketî bingun e, kekê Bozê siwar e Dephê
ye, te kes nedî binguna, tu ketî serdarê xewê ye.
 
At night, in the middle of the night, you fell into a fog,
the brother of the Grey Horse is the rider of Deph, no one

Şalê hatina, te hatina xêrê be.
 
The shawl of arrival, may your arrival be blessed.

27
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:17,000
Dîlawî... Êrebê Mela wî, lo wî... Hemedê Mela wî, lo wî, lo
wî.
 
My heart... oh Ereb of Mela... oh Hemed of Mela, oh my, oh
my.

28
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:26,000
Mela xwedê bişewitîne mala bavê Ereb Hemedî li dest sêstira
girîn û kare teşhûra bike.
 
Mela, may God burn the house of Ereb Hemed's father, holding
three-stringed instruments, weeping and making lamentations.

29
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:33,000
Lê lê Senem derdê mi va mek bera, medhê kûne û weşbira
xeberdan, xezeba minî jêde bişewite.
 
Oh Senem, do not bring up my pain, praising the tent and
eloquent speech, my wrath burns excessively.

30
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:41,000
Heger xeberê min arê biku ne wek ev e, destê xwedawî kunya
berû... daîre, bû cêbê, vê xet û mektûbê derdixîne dide dest
Senemê.
 
If my word, the fire of the tent is not like this, the hand
of God... the circle, it became a pocket, he takes out this
script and letter and gives it to Senem.

31
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,000
Senemê dare ser Bozê kekê, Senemê siwarê Dephê ye.
 
Senem is upon the brother's Grey Horse, Senem is the rider
of Deph.

32
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:52,000
Gotê rabe Bozo, dê rabe Keko, dê rabe qederreşo, dê rabe
kupê namûsê, dê rabe.
 
She said rise Grey Horse, rise Brother, rise black-fated
one, rise vessel of honor, rise.

33
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,000
Xeberdana Ereb Hemedî xeber dide arê bikûne mekefe.
 
The speech of Ereb Hemed speaks, the fire of the tent does
not suffice.

34
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,000
Weri serê vê sibê tikê, vê xet û mektûbê ji xayînka xwaro
bixwîne.
 
Come in the morning, read this script and letter from the
traitorous one down there.

35
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:05,000
Bozo radibe mektûbê dest digre, zerfê diser ra didirîne, vê
xet û mektûbê derdixîne.
 
The Grey Horse rises, takes the letter, tears the envelope
from it, takes out this script and letter.

36
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:09,000
Bise jiya şewitandinê, îşareta herbê ye.
 
Look at the burning, it is the sign of war.

37
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:14,000
Wa xetayê mişkinê bi kil e û bi hene û bi xwîn e.
 
That script of musk is with kohl, and with henna, and with
blood.

38
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:23,000
Xeta sivda ya mişkinî navê ferzê çûla bûka xerîba, dergista
hekkarî xaka sidiq, serekê neh hezar malî Ehmed Beg e.
 
The white script of musk, the name of the duty of the
wilderness of strange brides, the engaged of Hakkari, the
land of truth, the leader of nine thousand households is

'Anê, çûla Wuber e.
 
The Grey Horse is a cousin to a cousin, your loyal ones and
Hakkari came out to the plain of 'Anê, the wilderness of

Mela, may God burn the house of Kakuy, the grey trap of the
mouse.

41
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:38,000
Mûş e teyar axa, wasê rûs e, şevîn li bin kune, îskan baş e,
Mela qelengê mi wa dibirre.
 
It is a mouse, Tayyar Agha, the Russian vessel, spending the
night under the tent, settlement is good, Mela cuts my dowry
like this.

42
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:44,000
Ê kê sibeda dest û lingê mi têkî henekê, mi xirab bike aşîra
deşta Mûş e.
 
The one who, in the morning, puts henna on my hands and
feet, destroys me, is the tribe of the plain of Muş.

43
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:51,000
Dîlawî... Êrebê Mela wî, lo wî... Hemedê Mela wî, lo wî, lo
wî.
 
My heart... oh Ereb of Mela... oh Hemed of Mela, oh my, oh
my.

44
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,000
Ape Mihemed dengê te sax be.
 
Uncle Mihemed, health to your voice.

45
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,000
Sizax be, xwedê ji te razî be.
 
Health to you, may God be pleased with you.

46
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,000
Ev çîrok li kû çêbûye?
 
Where did this story take place?

47
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,000
Ev çîrok me go li Kurdistana Bakur çêbû.
 
As we said, this story took place in Northern Kurdistan.

48
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,000
Belê, zatan te di stranê de xûya kir.
 
Yes, you already clarified it in the song.

49
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:07,000
Li Vilayeta Rihayê. Li Vilayeta Rihayê çêbû.
 
In the Province of Riha (Urfa). It happened in the Province
of Riha.

50
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,000
Ewa... kalê mi digot...
 
That... my grandfather used to say...

51
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,000
Kalê te dengbêj bû?
 
Was your grandfather a bard (dengbêj)?

52
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,000
Belê. Kalê mi dengbêj bû, dengbêjekî mekin bû.
 
Yes. My grandfather was a bard, he was a strong bard.

53
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,000
Navê xwe çi bû?
 
What was his name?

54
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:20,000
Navê xwe Mihemedê Xidir bû. Navê min bi navê wî ye. Ez
Mihemedê Xidir im. Navê min bi navê kalê min e.
 
His name was Mihemed, son of Xidir. My name is his name. I
am Mihemed, son of Xidir. My name is my grandfather's name.

55
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,000
Ser çavê min.
 
Upon my eyes (You are welcome/Respected).

56
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,000
Sax be, xwedê ji te razî be.
 
Be healthy, may God be pleased with you.

57
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,000
Ê dengbêjiya xwe li kû dike? Li ber dîlana dike?
 
So where do you perform your bard songs? Do you do it at
weddings?

58
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:32,000
Na. Bavê mi jî dengbêj bû, û kalê mi jî dengbêj bû, û ez jî
bi xwe dengbêj im.
 
No. My father was also a bard, and my grandfather was also a
bard, and I myself am a bard.

59
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,000
Ama em wek xelqê, em neçûn me kaset tijî nekirin.
 
But we, unlike others, we didn't go and fill cassettes.

60
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:44,000
Em li ser bîdera, ew di gunda axa li oda... yanî bibî
baxşîşekî me nedan. Wa tiştna li cem me tûnne ye.
 
We [sang] on the threshing floors, or in the villages in the
Agha's guest rooms... meaning, we didn't give/take tips.
Those things don't exist with us.

61
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:51,000
Bes na em bibînin gund zanî ku ez dengbêj im. Şevê zivistanê
dirêj bûn, em diçûn mal li Helebê.
 
But no, if we saw the village knew I was a bard. The winter
nights were long, we used to go to the house in Aleppo.

62
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:56,000
Ez diçûm gund, gund dor me kom dibû, digot bavê Îsmaîl
hatiye, ka ji me ra strana bibêje.
 
I would go to the village, the village would gather around
me, saying "Ismail's father has come, come sing songs for
us."

63
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,000
Û me distira. Saetek, du saet, sê saet, bes heta sibe me
distira.
 
And we would sing. One hour, two hours, three hours, just
until morning we would sing.

64
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,000
Zarokên te fêr bûn?
 
Did your children learn?

65
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,000
Na. Kê çêbû?
 
No. Who became [a singer]?

66
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,000
Te zarokê xwe jî fêr kirin? Zarokê te jî zanin?
 
Did you teach your children too? Do your children know how
[to sing]?

67
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,000
Na, zarokê mi elhemdulila yek tiştkî nizanin. Na welle.
Nizanin.
 
No, my children, praise be to God, don't know a single
thing. No, by God. They don't know.

68
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,000
Û ne birayê te?
 
And not your brothers?

69
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:15,000
Em çar bira ne, birayê mi jî nizanin. Bes ez di nav da
dengbêj derketim.
 
We are four brothers, my brothers don't know either. Only I
turned out to be a bard among them.

70
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,000
Ji xeynî vê stranê, te yên din jî hene? Tu yên din jî
dizanî? Stranê sivik?
 
Besides this song, do you have others? Do you know others?
Light songs?

71
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Welle me pir çênekirine, bes ê kalê mi çêkirine hene. Li ser
vî gundî... li ser vî gundî... yanî yak sêra e sivik yanî
gotin.
 
Well, we didn't make many, but there are ones my grandfather
made. About this village... about this village... meaning,
they said a light poem/song.

72
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,000
Te ew dizanî?
 
Do you know those?

73
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,000
Belê.
 
Yes.

74
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:31,000
De yeke ji me ra bêje. Li dawiya bernameyê, wekî din tu çi
dikî di gund da?
 
Then sing one for us. At the end of the program [we will
hear it], otherwise what do you do in the village?

75
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,000
Welle di gunda ez karekî nakim.
 
Well, in the villages I don't do any work.

76
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,000
Tu tişta nanivîsînî?
 
You don't write anything?

77
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:40,000
Law nivîsandin... me berê, belê... de yek tiştekî hêja em
dinivîsînin.
 
Oh boy, writing... we used to, yes... well, if it's
something worthy, we write it.

78
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,000
Ê ne hêja?
 
And if not worthy?

79
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,000
Ê ne hêja em nanivîsînin... em dinivîsînin yanî.
 
If not worthy we don't write... I mean we write [sometimes].

80
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,000
Yek... bagur tarîxa, tiştekî rind yek bike em dinivîsînin.
 
One... looking at history, if someone does something good,
we write it.

81
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:54,000
Wek îro em bîn agha welat hat vir, emê binivîsînin: Agha
welat filan tarîxê, filan wextê, filan rojê hat. Emê
binivîsînin.
 
Like today, let's say the Agha of the land came here, we
will write: The Agha of the land came on such date, such
time, such day. We will write it.

82
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,000
Ewa nivîsî yanî tîda xelas.
 
That is the writing, meaning that's it.

83
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,000
Yanî tiştê di gund da tu dinivîsînî?
 
Meaning you write the things [happening] in the village?

84
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,000
Yanî çi di gund da çêbe tu dinivîsînî?
 
Meaning whatever happens in the village, you write it?

85
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,000
Belê.
 
Yes.

86
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:05,000
Belê, di gund da ya zewacek e, ya yek dimire, ya yek... işde
hat.
 
Yes, in the village either it's a marriage, or someone dies,
or someone... well, comes.

87
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,000
Çend zarokê te hene?
 
How many children do you have?

88
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:11,000
Welle ji min heftî û sê ne, sê heftî û çar e ma.
 
Well, from me [I have] seven, three [girls], and four are
