Merheba ştera. Hello to you.
Ehlen we sehlen. Ehlen we sehlen. Welcome. Welcome.
Sax be. Ev gundê we ji kîngê da ava bûye, kî destpê kir vê gundî? Bless you. Since when was your village built, who started this village?
Ev gund zûda ava bûye. Û ê ez zanim, hatina vê derê du mal hatin. This village was built a long time ago. And as far as I know, when coming here, two families came.
Malbata mala Kurmû ne, malbata mala Evdê Heşê ne. It is the family of Kurmu's house, and the family of Evde Heshe's house.
Paşê malbata mala Hemûjê hene, malbata mala Kolecê hene, malbata mala Şêx Mislim jî hene. Later, there is the Hemuje family, the Kolec family, and the Shekh Muslim family is also here.
Û malbata mala Elî hene, Reşîtê Elî. Xûçe bûn, Birak... Mecîd... Evna li vê gundî ne. And there is the Ali family, Reshit Ali. They were brothers, Brother... Mejid... These are in this village.
E destpêk ev ji kûderê hatin bra? Çi eşîr bûn, ji kîjan bajarî berê xwe dan vir? So initially where did they come from brother? What tribe were they, from which city did they head here?
Ee.. mala Kurmû ji Kobanê hatine, ji Tilhacê be, eşîra Zerwar in. Uh... the Kurmu house came from Kobani, from Tilhac, they are of the Zerwar tribe.
Û mala Şêxê jî, ji... mala Berazî ne. And the Shekh house too, is from... the Berazi family.
Ew jî ji Kobanê ne? Are they also from Kobani?
Ew jî ji Kobanê ne. Hatin vê derê, gund gundekî kevn e. They are also from Kobani. They came here, the village is an old village.
Mal heft heşt mal bûn. Û şikefta bûn li mentîqê, her yek şikefta xwe hebû. There were seven or eight households. And they were in caves in the area, everyone had their own cave.
Şikefta mala Hesen, şikefta mala Şêxê, şikefta mala Feqê, şikefta mala Hemûnê, hewna gi berê di şikeftan de bûn. The cave of Hesen's house, the cave of Shekh's house, the cave of Feqe's house, the cave of Hemune's house, all of them were in caves before.
Yanî berê gundê we hemî di şikeftan de jiyan dikirin? Meaning formerly your whole village lived in caves?
A, şikeftan de bûn. Paşê... li mentîqe giwa bû. Yes, they were in caves. Later... the area was pasture.
Mal tune bûn, ev malên ku çêbûn jî ser dîrek bûn, ax bûn, çîmento tune bû. There were no houses, even the houses that were built were on wooden poles, were made of earth, there was no cement.
Ev gund wilo çêbûye. This village was formed like that.
Neha ev gundê Şîtka, li Efrînê jî heye, gundek li Tirbespiyê li Cizîrê jî heye. Now this Shitka village, it exists in Afrin, and there is a village in Tirbesipi in Cizire as well.
Hûn mirovê hev in, meriya hev dikin? Are you related to each other, do you have relations?
Na wala, ez zanim we derê xebera min tune ye. Dibey meriya hev dibin. No by God, as far as I know I have no news of that place. Maybe they are related.
Wîn hevdu nas nakin? You don't know each other?
Na. No.
Demekê ez çûm Tirbespiyê, me gundek lûr jî dî. Navê xwe Şîtka ye. Once I went to Tirbesipi, I saw a village there too. Its name is Shitka.
Dibey... dibey ji berê hev dibin, ez nizanim. Maybe... maybe from before they are together, I don't know.
E ka ji me re bêje, neha ev gundê we... te go gundekî kevn e... So tell us, now your village... you said it is an old village...
Çi çîrok di vê gundî da derbas bûn, tiştên balkêş çi derbas bûn? What stories passed through this village, what interesting things happened?
Axa... axa li vir hebûn, tune bûn? Agas... were there Agas here, or not?
Gundê me axa tune bûn. Heta... axa ku hukim dikirin, te axa li vê gundî hukim nekir. Our village didn't have Agas. Even... when Agas were ruling, no Aga ruled in this village.
Gund gundekî... lehev e. Gundekî... tevgere hewda dikin. The village is a... united village. A village... they conduct the movement in it.
Gundekî serbilind e. Gundekî... xwedan şehîd in. It is a proud village. A village... possessing martyrs.
Bîst şehîd dane. Heta niha jî serokê xwe di şer dane. They gave twenty martyrs. Even until now they gave their leader in the war.
Yanî gundekî heştê mal e, nozde şehîdê xwe hene di vê gundî. Meaning a village of eighty households, has nineteen of its martyrs in this village.
Gund teqrîban neha heştê mal heye. Û wekî hezar nifûsê xwe heye, hezar. The village has approximately eighty households now. And it has like a thousand population, a thousand.
Bes ê pir neha ne li vir in, belav in. Her yek li mentîqekê, her yek şûlekî xwe dike. But most are not here now, they are scattered. Everyone is in an area, everyone doing their job.
Neha... yekî gundê we hebû, helbestvan bû. Nexwendî bû û helbestvan bû. Now... there was someone in your village, he was a poet. He was illiterate and was a poet.
Ka çîroka wî bêje berra. Tell his story for us.
Wele... yekî jê re digotin Reşîtê Elî. Nexwenda bû. Û şaîr digotin. By God... there was one they called Reshit Ali. He was illiterate. And they called him a poet.
Û tamsîlat çêdikir, museqel bû jî. And he created plays, he was an actor too.
Û... carna... dengbêj dihatin vê derê. And... sometimes... singers came here.
Wek kî? Dengbêj kî dihat bra? Like who? Which singer came brother?
Dengbêj... jê re... Hesen Nazê bû, Hesnazê jê re digot. The singer... called... it was Hesen Naze, they called him Hesnaze.
Dihat vê derê, rûniştin didan. Û dihatin mala bavê min. He came here, they held gatherings. And they came to my father's house.
Gund gi li serê kom dibû. Dengbêj kelam digotin. The whole village gathered around him. The singer sang songs.
Û gund jî... musade jê re dikir û diçû. And the village... bade him farewell and he left.
E ka ji me re bêje, ser te go Reşîtê Elî bû, wey helbestvan. So tell us, about whom you said was Reshit Ali, that poet.
E ka tiştekî ji me re bêje ser wî bêje. Say something about him for us.
Reşîtê Elî însanekî umî bû. Ew jî du bra bûn. Reshit Ali was an illiterate person. They were two brothers.
Du bra bûn, Reşîd bû û Mecîd bû. Mecîd xoce bû. They were two brothers, Rashid and Mejid. Mejid was a teacher.
Xoce bû... bi Tirkî rind zanî, bi Farisî jî zanî, bi Erebî jî zanî. He was a teacher... he knew Turkish well, he knew Persian too, he knew Arabic too.
Reşîtê Elî... mirovekî... hunermend bû. Reshit Ali... was an... artist person.
Di dawata jî digerî. Û însanekî pir pak bû, baş bû. He went to weddings too. And he was a very clean person, good.
Ez te spas dikim, saet xweş. I thank you, bless you.
Ehlen we sehlen. Welcome.

De zivistanê tiştî orte hêşînê namîne. In winter, no fresh green things remain available.

Temaşevanên hêja, naha em derbasî malek din bûn. Dear viewers, now we have moved to another house.
Em hatin cem Apê Ehmed. Apê Ehmed jî cotkar e. We came to Uncle Ehmed. Uncle Ehmed is also a farmer.
Yanî em kanin jê bipirsin, ser vî gundî. Meaning we can ask him about this village.
Debara xwe bi çi dikin? Çi li vî gundî diçînin? How do they make a living? What do they plant in this village?
Ka em pirsa xwe jê pirs kin. Merhaba. Let's ask him our questions. Hello.
Ehlen we sehlen, bi hatina we. Welcome, to your arrival.
Sax be. Apê Ehmed, me got ji ber gûh tu cotkar î. Thanks. Uncle Ehmed, we heard earlier that you are a farmer.
Û ev gundê me hemî cotkar in yanê. And this village of ours are all farmers, basically.
Hûn debara xwe bi çi dikin? Hûn çi diçînin li gund? How do you make a living? What do you plant in the village?
Debara me, ji selef da, wek namê gotî, mentiqa çiya bû. Our livelihood, from the ancestors' time, as the name implies, was a mountain region.
Bi pêz di'işîn. They lived off sheep/livestock.
Îro roj, bûye zeytûn. Nowadays, it has become olives.
Ev çend sal in? How many years has it been?
Havo ji mêje. This has been for a long time.
Tê bîra te? Do you remember?
Na. No.
Nê, bîra min... wextê kal pîrê me, bi me ra dibên, ez noka bitara we dibêm. No, I mean... when our grandparents tell us, I am telling you in that way now.
Wextê hev çonagî vekirin, paşê zeytûn hatin çandin. When they opened up these fields, then olives were planted.
Hinik tên bîra min, hinik nayên bîra min. I remember some of it, I don't remember some of it.
Dipê zeytûna ra, e'tîmadê xwa dan ser zeytûna. After the olives, they placed their reliance on olives.
Dipê ra, rez. Rez danîn. Before that, vineyards. They planted vineyards.
Razê wan pîr bûn, nexweşî kete razan, zeytûn danîn. Their vineyards got old, disease hit the vineyards, they planted olives.
Îro roj zeytûn in. Today, it is olives.
Nah, ev çandina te behsa çêkir. Berê hemî kelem bûn. Now, this planting you mentioned. In the past, it was all rocky/uncultivated land.
Temam. Exactly.
Çawa ev kelemna rakirin? Çawa cot û jûtin? How did they remove these rocks? How did they plow and farm?
Hev kelemna, em vêra dibên ew hebûn Kûmircî. These rocks, we call them... there were Charcoal Burners (Kûmircî).
Kûmircî. Kûmircî a vekir, pê şuxilîn, hew kûmira kirin xizmetî xwe, xizmetî xwe û miletî xwe. Charcoal Burners. The Charcoal Burners opened it up, worked with it, made that charcoal serve them, serve themselves and their people.
Yanî ev ji gundî we bûn? Yan ji gundî derdorî we? Meaning, were these from your village? Or from the surrounding villages?
Ji gundî me bûn, û derdorî me jî hebûn. They were from our village, and there were some from our surroundings too.
Hemî vê karê dikirin. Everyone did this work.
Temam. Exactly.
Bi vî tûnî hev çona vebûn, bi quwetê xwe, bi yekbûne xwe, bi e'tîmadê xwa dan ser zate xwe. In this way, these fields were opened, with their own strength, their unity, placing their reliance on their own selves.
Ne dan ser zate kesî din. They did not rely on anyone else.
Ew kûmirna çêdikirin? What did they do with those coals?
Kûmir çêdikirin, difrotin. They made charcoal and sold it.
Difrotin pê di'işîn. They sold it to survive.
Difrotin kuderê? Where did they sell it?
Difrotin Heleb, bi meşê dibirin. Bi dewar dibirin Heleb. They sold it in Aleppo, they took it by walking. They took it to Aleppo with beasts of burden.
Belkî tu dibêjî ne têbîra min jî. Maybe you say "I don't remember" either.
Ne têbîra min giya, bes mezinê me bi me ra gotine. I don't remember all of it, but our elders told us.
Bavê te jî dikir vê karê? Did your father do this work too?
Bavê min nedikir, na. My father didn't do it, no.
Ne dikir? He didn't?
Bes kesî din dikirin yanî? But other people did it, right?
Kesî din dikir, erê. Wakî din. Other people did it, yes. Like others.
Ev serweta gî, bi quwetê piyê me hatî, û bi quwetê yekbûnê me hatî. All this wealth came from the strength of our feet (effort), and came from the strength of our unity.
Dipê ra, ji zeytûna xelas kirin, dinya çû pêşta, dareyê zîraet jî pêşta dare. After that, when they finished with olives, the world moved forward, the agriculture department moved forward too.
Gandin, rez çandin. They plowed, planted vineyards.
Dipê reza ra, kerez çandin. After vineyards, they planted cherries.
Dipê kerezan ra, sêv çandin, hilîk çandin, çeftelî çandin, henar çandin. After cherries, they planted apples, plums, peaches, pomegranates.
Hev mûsîma gî, me gî bi destî xwe kirî, û em ne bi haceta kesî ne. All these seasons (crops), we did it all with our own hands, and we are not in need of anyone.
Am bi haceta yekbûnê xwe ne, koombûnê xwe ne, şuxulî xwe ne di gundî xwe da. We are in need of our unity, our gathering, our work in our own village.
Yanî hemî tişt ba we dibe? Meaning everything grows/happens with you?
Erê. Yes.
Ne... yanê ne miletê derdorî milet bigirin, çawa bikin, kanin ji cem xwe bijîn? Not... meaning not needing the surrounding people to take from, how do they manage, can they live from their own resources?
Kanim cem xwe bijîn. Erê. We can live from our own resources. Yes.
Ha, vo meselo gî çêdibe, e'tîmadê mal ser nefsê me ye, ne liser xêrî me ye. See, all this happens, because our reliance is on ourselves, not on others for us.
Rast e. That's right.
Wextê e'tîmadê mal ser xêrî me be, ji me qut kirin, em mirin. If our reliance was on others, if they cut us off, we would die.
E'tîmadê mal ser nefsê me be, kesî ji me qutkê tune. If our reliance is on ourselves, there is no one to cut us off.
Am bi destî xwe dikin, bi devî xwe dixwin. We make it with our hands, we eat it with our mouths.
Rast e Apê Ehmed, na tu piraniya... That is true Uncle Ehmed, now you mostly...
Em hatin cihekî din jî, wan jî darên simaqê çandine, lê di nav çandinîyê de tirşê da. We came to another place as well, they have planted sumac trees, but within the cultivation of the sour [sumac].
Tirşê simaqê. Sumac sour.
Tirşê simaqê. Çandin e. Û ghandin û bixizmet. Sumac sour. It is planting. And plowing and serving.
Dçinin. Wextê xwaha ye dçinin, mor dbe, sor dbe, wextê bûndinê bû dçinin. We harvest. When it is time we harvest, it turns purple, it turns red, when it is ripe we harvest.
Noka av jî fêda kêm e, zenej mera. Now the benefit of water is also less, [unclear] for us.
Noka tirşê simaqê kîlo gîc sêsed, sêsed û pêncî wereqî. Now sumac sour, a kilo reaches three hundred, three hundred and fifty papers [currency].
Warîdat ne hindik e. The income is not little.
Yê gundî hemî vê karî dikin? Do all the villagers do this work?
Ne hemî ye. Her kesekî li gorî xwe heye. Not everyone. Everyone has according to their own capacity.
Yê heye hindik çandî, yê heye pir çandî, yê heye bixwe hêşîn bûye, elmuhîm, yanî li cem giya heye. Some planted a little, some planted a lot, some grew on its own, anyway, it exists with everyone.
Jibo malê xwe jî û jibo firotanê jî. For their own home and for selling.
Gûz jî li vê herêmê hene? Are there walnuts in this region too?
Gûz jî pir in. Ji xwarê re jî û ji firotanê re jî. Walnuts are also plenty. For eating and for selling.
Hemî tişt li ba we dbe? Does everything grow with you?
Temam. Exactly.
Av li ba we heye? Do you have water?
Av li ba me, bîr hene. We have water, there are wells.
Berê, kêmîk der dibûn, av dibûn, te dî sal ti wezyetê, sal zane, ti kêmî der, der nebûn. Before, a little digging, there was water, you saw the year and situation, time knows, a little digging, it didn't come out.
Wekî ji vistanê çûni jî baran pir tune bûn, hişk bûn, hişk bûn, li vederê bîrê tl, ew jî mentîqa me ye, ger ne hebû, te tirêt têkira, te hêşinahî têkira. As winter passed there wasn't much rain, they dried up, they dried up, in this area deep wells, that is our region, if there was [water], you would put trees in it, you would put greens in it.
Noka ceyran jî, pênc deqe tê, pênc deqe dibire. Heta tu dbeji vêxe, hew çû. Qehra mî bû. Now electricity too, five minutes it comes, five minutes it cuts. Before you say turn it on, it's gone. It was a misery.
Noka jî dûr dûr me, gendê d me, bîr kolane, her kesekî îmkanî ye xwe heye, dkole, yekî îmkanî ye xwe tûne ye, se rîncê xwe heye, ew elmuhîm xwe îdare dike. Now too, round and round we dig wells, everyone with their means digs, one who has no means, has his patience, anyway he manages himself.
Ê dudiye jî, şîrketê hew jî me ra hure dike. The second thing, the company is also eating us up.
Hew jî me ra hure dike, elmuhîm îdare dibe, em kanin xwe îdare kin. It is eating us up, anyway it is managed, we can manage ourselves.
Ez te spas dikim. I thank you.
Tu sax be. Be healthy.
Weş giyo spas dikim. I thank you all too.

Ez YPJ me. Ez tekoşera YPJ me. Cangoriya xak û xelkê me. Ez leşkerê Rojavayê me. Şev û roj serpiyê me. I am the YPJ. I am a fighter of the YPJ. A sacrificer for the soil and my people. I am a soldier of Rojava. Night and day I am on my feet.
Min soz dayî bo doza me. Pêxwîna şehîdê xwe me. Serma, germa na xema. Ji bo şagirtê hevala me. I gave a promise for our cause. I am the follower of my martyr's blood. Cold, heat, no worry. For the sake of being a student of our friend [Leader].
Ez YPJ me. Dil birînim. Gul û kesera dicivînim. Dergevanim li ser rê me. Parêzvanim li nav cî me. Dilê serhildanê me. Raperîna dendê aza re me. Aştî, aramî ji bo wê me. Şer çêbê ez qadê me. I am the YPJ. I am heartbroken. I gather roses and sorrows. I am a gatekeeper on the road. I am a defender within the place. I am the heart of the uprising. I am the revolt of the free rib. I am for peace and stability. If war happens, I am the battlefield.
Her bijî! Long live!

Temaşevanên hêja, lê li vê gundî Şîtka de jî grupek heye, grupa şano, a Şehîd Viyan. Dear viewers, here in this village of Shitka there is also a group, a theater group, [named] Martyr Viyan.
Lê berpirsiyar jî... şanoger kî bi nav û deng e li herêma Efrînê da, bi navê Emînê Naskir. And the person in charge... is a theater actor who is famous in the Afrin region, named Emine Naskir.
Merheba. Hello.
Merheba, ehlen we sehlen heval. Hello, welcome my friend.
Tu çawa yî? How are you?
Wele gelek baş e heval, tu çawa yî? By God, very good my friend, how are you?
Baş e, tu çend salan li vî karî dikî? Karê şano dikî? Good. How many years have you been doing this work? Doing theater work?
Ê... wele heval, gelek yanî... mudetek pir dirêj e yanî. Sî û pênc (35) sal in em di vê xebatê de karê xwe dimeşînin. Di nava şano da. Ne tenê şano tene. Yanî xebatê me li ser reqsê hene, ser stranan hene, ser şano hene, ser govendê hene. Yanî ser çand û huner, tevayî hene. Uh... well my friend, a lot, I mean... it is a very long period, actually. It is thirty-five (35) years that we have been conducting our work in this struggle. Inside the theater. Not only just theater. I mean, we have work on dance, on songs, on theater, on folk dancing. I mean, on culture and art, we have it all.
Bes em te nas dikin di şano da. But we know you [specifically] in theater.
E şano... şano. Ah, theater... theater.
Di şano da te nas dikin. We know you in theater.
Yanî... karê min, yanî meraqa min ser şano gelek pir e yanî. Ez bixwe ji şano hez dikim. I mean... my work, I mean my passion for theater is very high. I personally love theater.
Şano jî bingehê milet e. Têbînî carna tiştek milet têne ser ziman... rexne li ser milet hebe tîne ser ziman. Yanî bingehê milet e yanî. Theater is also the foundation of a nation. Note that sometimes it brings something about the nation to language [expression]... if there is criticism of the nation, it expresses it. It is the foundation of the nation.
Ê heval, erê erê. Em şano çê dikin, em ji bo çi çê dikin? Em waqîa vê gelî dînirin. Jê şano tê der. Yanî mînak em bêjin, kêmasiya gel çê dibe, kêmasiya xorta çê dibe, kêmasiya keça çê dibe. Yanî ji bo vî tiştan em şanoyekî temamî ser çê dikin. Uh friend, yes, yes. When we create theater, why do we create it? We look at the reality of this people. From that, theater emerges. I mean, for example, let's say, shortcomings of the people happen, shortcomings of the youth happen, shortcomings of the girls happen. I mean, regarding these things, we create a complete play about it.
Ê naha te çi ji me re amade kirîye? So now, what have you prepared for us?
Wele heval, me şanoyekî, mesela em bêjin gorî vê demê me çêkirî. Ser... vana keçan me yî niha, yanî vanê bi xelewî bi hevre dan dikin... Well friend, we have a play, for example let's say according to this time we made it. About... these girls of ours now, I mean the ones who mistakenly deal with each other...
Yanî rexnek ji bo vê civakê. Meaning a criticism for this society.
E, yanî ji bo vî tiştî me şanoyek çê kirî. Û niha tevahî gundê Şîtka, yanî ew li wê şano jî seyr bike. Û ez bawerim ê yanî gelek jî bikenin, keyfxweş bibin. Yes, I mean for this thing we made a play. And now the whole village of Shitka, I mean they will watch that play too. And I believe they will laugh a lot, and be happy.
Hûn çend kes in? How many people are you [in the group]?
Wele heval, em neh (9) kes in... ê hevalên me niha tûnene. Niha haliyen em heft (7) in. Well friend, we are nine (9) people... uh, our friends are not here now. Now currently we are seven (7).
Heft in? Seven?
Heft in, loqno. Seven, exactly.
Û hemû dixebitin di şano da? And all of them work in the theater?
Ê hemû jî di vê şanoyê da em dixebitin. Em karê xwe dikin. Heftê rokî em provê xwe dikin. Yes, all of us work in this theater. We do our work. Once a week we do our rehearsals.
Serkeftin ji we re. Good luck to you.
Temaşevanên hêja, îro me li vê gundî jî derbas kir. Gundê Şîtka. Me arf û adetê vê gundî nas kir. Me dîroka vê gundî nas kir. Dear viewers, today we also spent time in this village. The village of Shitka. We got to know the customs and traditions of this village. We got to know the history of this village.
Bi rastî gundekî serkeftî ye. Me go gundekî qehreman e. Miletekî hemû welatparêz e. Truly, it is a successful village. We said it is a heroic village. A nation [people] that is entirely patriotic.
Me go nozde (19) şehîdê vê gundî jî hene. We said there are also nineteen (19) martyrs of this village.
Lê li vir jî em ê xatira xwe ji we bixwazin. Heya bernameyek din, li gundekî din, em ê dîsa bi hevre bin. But here too, we will ask for your leave. Until another program, in another village, we will be together again.
