Dema baran têt wî dema ew ro gelî ye. Ev ro lemişte gelî pişk nake. When the rain comes, that time it flows down the valley. So the flood doesn't spray the valley today.

Di gund de bîr hene, başqayî vê kaniyê? Are there wells in the village, apart from this spring?
Bîr hene li pişt gund hene di navbera gund de... ser kaniyê... kaniyê, kaniyên bîra hene. There are wells behind the village, there are some in the middle of the village... on the spring... the spring, there are spring wells.
Çend bîr in? Qasî çend in? How many wells? About how many?
Welleh ev derê, yek heye, yek kevin in yanî. By God, here, there is one, there's an old one, you see.
Û kaniyên... dewra kevin de we dîsa du-sê kanî wisa hebûn? And the springs... in the old times, you had two or three springs like this again?
Dewra du-sê bîr heye yanî, hebûn. There are two or three wells in the area, they existed.
Niha hîn av kaniyên hene? Do you still have spring water now?
Na, yek heye di zorê da û yek jî di koştî de, tune mî. No, there is one in the tough terrain and one in the corner, that's it.
Êh niha hûn ava xwe ji ku derê tînin? So now where do you bring your water from?
Ava... ava... ji şîrketê ye. Water... water... is from the company.
Berî hemî milet dihatin ser vê. Before, all the people used to come to this one.
Berê şeş gunda av ji vir dibir. Bîra... av ji vir dihat dibirin. Before, six villages used to take water from here. The well... water used to come from here and they took it.
Ev darana kengî hatine çandin? Darên çinarê, ya darê tûyê... When were these trees planted? The sycamore trees, or the mulberry trees...
Ev darana... çinar... digotin axayê mezin bavikê Xelîl Axa... These trees... the sycamore... they said the great Agha, the father of Xelîl Axa...
Mihemedê Se'îd Axa ev a çand. Mihemed Se'îd Axa planted this.
Hîn xwediyê odê ye, odeyê wî jî hîn ta niha ew a ku heye. Hîn şirata wî ye. He is still the owner of the guest room, his guest room is still there until now. It's still his trace.
Pelekî... hukûmet wek mîvanek bû di ba wî, cemaet pêr e peya dibû. Wê da dixwar bûn derdixwar. Once... the government was like a guest with him, the crowd would get off by him. They ate there, they fed them there.
Wî, Mihemed Axa bavê Xelîl Axa, çand. He, Mihemed Axa, the father of Xelîl Axa, planted it.
Ev çiqas sal, ev dar e, diçe? How many years does this tree go back?
Nizanim... qedîm e. Sed û heftê, sed sê sed sal e bibe, kevin e, bav û kalên me mirin û di gotin Xelîl çandiye. I don't know... it's ancient. A hundred and seventy, a hundred to three hundred years it might be, it's old, our ancestors died and said Xelîl planted it.
Mala we ava be. Bless your house.
Sax be. Ehlê û sehlen. Stay healthy. Welcome.
Spas. Thank you.
Ser çava. Upon my eyes.

Dayîka jî bi dilkî xweş, xastin dengekî xweş di şahiya xwe de, cejnê da. The mother also with a cheerful heart, they wanted a beautiful voice in their celebration, during the Eid.
Em ê başê destpêkê stranan ji me re gotin, dengê wan sax bin. Good that they sang songs for us at the beginning, may their voices be healthy.
Nah emê hinekî bipirsin ji wan da dema cejna de, dayîk çi dikin, çawa bav û bira bi wan re alîkar in... dema hazirtiyên xwe ji bo cejnê dikin. Now we will ask them a bit about what mothers do during the Eid, how fathers and brothers help them... when they make their preparations for the Eid.
Merheba ji we re dayê. Hello to you, mother.
Way... Ehlen we sehlen. Oh... Welcome.
Dayê ka ji destpêkê yanî cejnê... Mother, from the beginning, I mean, Eid...
Cejnê pêşînda em diçûn jêzara Xwarê, Kinc dikirîn Before Eid, we used to go to Jêzara Xwarê and buy clothes.
Em dihatin roja erefê... me haziriya xwe dikir We would come back on the day of Arafah... we would make our preparations.
Kufteyê xwe dikir, nanê xwe rind dikir, bela dikir We made our meatballs, we made our bread nicely and distributed it.
Me tiştê xwe gişt hazir dikir, be havâl cîranê xwe... em bi me ra rûdiniştin, heta ku didan. We prepared all our things, with our friends and neighbors... we sat together until they were served.
Em radibûn sibeha cejnê, sibeha cejnê jî em radibûn. We would wake up on the morning of Eid.
Dîsa nanê xwe dixwar, em bi cem hev diçûn cejna xwe pîroz dikirn We would eat our bread again, and we would go together to celebrate our Eid.
Hev ra hevalê xwe derdixistin em diçûna mala hevdû, ziyaretî dikir. We would take out our friends and go to each other's houses and visit.
Jê şûnda em diçûn, em eşxarê dilîstin. Afterwards we would go, we would play games.
Em alîstokê xwe... hinik çerxa betûşê dilîstin, hinik qaşqelek didan. With our toys... some played Ferris wheel, some played seesaw.
Ji wê, eşxê ra em nanê nîvro nedihat bîra em bixwin. Out of the excitement of the game, we would forget to eat lunch.
Em difitilîn mala, nanê xwe çêdikir, êvarî dîsa em diçûn cem hev We would return home, make our food, and in the evening we would go together again,
Kêf dikirîn, giş şa dibûn. We had fun, everyone was happy.
Paşê em diçûna cem xudanê xwe. Em diçûn Eda Dûr e, em diçûn gundê Bavê xwe. Then we would go to our families. We would go to Eda Dûr, we would go to our father's village.
Xudanê xwe jî didîtan. Hava, ew me- yanê em di cejnê da bûn. We would see our families too. Weather, that is, we were in Eid.
Ê rojekî kuftê tedar dibûn. Ser mîsan dibûn One day meatballs would be ready. We would be at the tables.
Tiştê wisa me da... dolme me çêdikir Things like that... we made dolma.
Yanî we şîv nan didan hev? I mean, did you give food to each other?
Erê, mêvanê me hatin em belavî nakin Yes, when our guests arrived, we wouldn't let them leave.
Lê ev qurbanê ha ew qurban heye, ewa goşt e, ewa cejna goşt e, em datînan. But this Eid al-Adha, there is sacrifice, that is meat, that is the Eid of meat, we put it out.
Îşta em ê mêvanê xwe... Thus, our guests...
Tişta herî xweş di gundan da çiye? Yanî dema ku dayîkê we bi we re çêdikir... What is the most beautiful thing in the villages? I mean when your mother made it with you...
Herî xweş nuha elhemdulîllah serok apo ji me ra fitilandiye em dîsa jin û mêr gişt bi hev ra rûdinin. The best thing now, Alhamdulillah, our leader Apo has returned to us, and men and women all sit together again.
Sîqetek di nava mirov da çêkir yanî. He created a bond among the people.
Dema ku dayîka te, cîranên te, çi kar dikirin? When your mother, your neighbors, what work did they do?
Te çi ji wan hîn dikir? What did you learn from them?
Pêşiya me... em pêşiya me, mesela, diwê em alîkariya xwe nedikirin. Before us... we, before us, for instance, they wouldn't help us.
Em ji me ra mesel dikir, em tevnek çêdikir. They would explain things to us, we would weave a carpet.
Bes me lê sêr dikir me jê radikir. Yanî wê çawa tevnek li dar dikir û çawa çêdikir. But we watched and learned from it. I mean, how they set up the loom and how they made it.
Me lê sêr dikir, bes me jê radikir. Me jê hez dikir em karekî rind bibin. We would watch, and we would learn. We loved it so we could do good work.
Bes me jê nedikirin, em diçûn... Qenewiç çêdikir, Şixlê makînê hebû. Digotin Şixlê Teşrîfê, me çêdikir. But we didn't do it, we went... They made cross-stitch, there was machine embroidery. They called it Tashrif embroidery, we made it.
Ew em weha çêdikin, da qîza... Em pîr bûn em wisa çêdikin. That's how we make it, so the girls... We got old, we make it like that.
Dayê ez tiştek ji te bipirsim? Mother, can I ask you something?
Di gundan da tiştê herî pir te xweş e ne? Yes.
Di gundan da tiştê herî pir te xweş e ne? What are the most beautiful things in the villages?
Dema cîran bi hev re tiştki dikin û alîkar, şîvê tînin... When neighbors do something together and help each other, they bring dinner...
Çawa... Her malek xwarinek didin, şîvê li hev belav dikin. Vêga ev edetê hene? How... Each house gives food, they distribute dinner together. Do these customs exist now?
Em belav dikin evara eynî yek e. Her teqek xwarina xwe ez şîvê dikim derdixînim We distribute it, the evening is the same. Each puts out their food, I make dinner and take it out.
Yanî bi tenê xwe? So by yourself?
Ez tenê xwe didim, jina xwe didim jina bi hev didim. I give by myself, I give to the women, we give to each other.
Hûn têne derve didine cîranan... You bring it out and give it to the neighbors...
Em cîrana jî didin, em bi cîranan didin, em diçên cîranan ne nan... We give it to the neighbors, we give it to the neighbors, we go to the neighbors, not bread...
Edetêk pir xweş e. It's a very nice tradition.
Erê. Noka yanî em... ev jî heye... ew jî tîne ji me ra ev jî dibe ji wan ra yanî ev edeta di cem me da heye. Yes. Now, I mean we... there is this too... they bring to us and we bring to them, I mean we have this custom.
Dema tu berê... te tiştin li ser zimên... When you previously... you said some things about language...
Belkî ewên kesê temenên mezin, tiştê berê te bîra wan. Maybe older people remember the old things.
Belkî ev keçikên naha wisa tiştê berê nedînin, çawa te... dema daîk û jinên li hev rûdiniştin. Maybe these young girls nowadays haven't seen those old things, how did you... when mothers and women used to sit together.
Çawa dibûn alîkar bi hev ra... How they helped each other...
Di her karê da em dibûn alîkar. Di nan da bû, didotina meşe da bû, di mastê kevê da bû, di çêkirina penîr da bû. We helped each other in every work. It was in bread making, milking sheep, churning yogurt, making cheese.
Û min dirûtin jî dikir, ha ev dirûyên me ne. And I used to sew too, these are our clothes.
Te bixwe terzî jî? You were a tailor yourself?
Çend sale dirûtinê dikî? How many years have you been sewing?
Hey vellah min pir kir. Hey by God, I did a lot.
Te pir kir? You did a lot?

Naha ez qey min 60-70 bûne terzî. Now I must be 60-70, I have been a tailor.
Xwedê te bihêle. May God protect you.

û li malbateke wê gundê zewiciye. and married into a family from that village.
Ta sala 1962iyan da dimîne û pişt re koçberî bajarê Helebê dibe. He stayed until 1962 and then migrated to the city of Aleppo.
Jiber hemûna Xelîl Axayê gund ku weke kesayetiyek mezîn bû... Due to the presence of Khalil Agha of the village, who was a great figure...

Ji binî da helbet Kutleya Wetenî bû. Şoreşa Hanano re bû Xelîl Axa. In the beginning, of course, it was the National Bloc. Khalil Agha was with Hanano's revolution.
Şoreşa Hanano wextê têk çû... wextê Şoreşa Hanano têk çû... When the Hanano Revolution failed... when the Hanano Revolution failed...
Êdî dewleta Sûriyê yanê intîxaba xwen çêkirin. Hilbijartina Meclîsa Şab çêbû. Then the Syrian government created their own elections. The parliamentary elections took place.
Xwe berbijêr kir Xelîl Axa. Û derket Parlamantoya Sûriyê yanê... Khalil Agha nominated himself. And entered the Syrian Parliament, that is...

Bi sêwre ra, pir hereke... Çekên sêwre yên, wacî mantiqa şimalî dibên. With the revolution, there was a lot of movement... The weapons of the revolution that faced the northern region, they say.
Wacî Helebê, vir da, cîh kirin mêrên ciwanan wilo. Facing Aleppo, here, they placed young men like that.
Jê Tirkiyê jî kîsî xwe teb'en, ew kirrîn, sîleh kirrîn. From Turkey as well, from their own pocket, of course, they bought them, they bought weapons.
Û wekîlê xwe hebû, Îbrahîmê Tirgo d'gotin, ji gundê Çeqela. And they had a deputy, Ibrahim Tirgo, they called him, from the village of Chaqala.
Derbasî berlamanê Sûriyê bû. He entered the parliament of Syria.
Û heta da çû karê xwe yê berlemanê dikir. And he went back and forth doing his parliament work.
Pir tişt heye, ji Kurda xêr ra qedimandin. There are many things he provided for the benefit of the Kurds.
Qedimandin, wekî mesela They provided, for example,
Luẍetê Kurmancî da pêş. He presented the Kurmanji language.
Înna luẍetek Kurdî. So there is a Kurdish language.
Bi zimanê xwe em l'vê derê b'elim in, bixwînin. That we learn in our language here, that we read it.
Û wî çaxî jî te zanî her teqrîben her şeş meha, sê meha, şeş meha reîsek dihat. And in that time, you know, almost every six months, three months, six months, a president would come.
Yanî reîsek in, înqilabat pir lê çêdibûn wî çaxan a. Meaning a president, there were a lot of coups at that time.
Ê kîjan reîs e ewê demê bi Xelîl Axa ra derbazî gotinê wî bû? Which president was it at that time who had that conversation with Khalil Agha?
Şukrî Quwetlî. Shukri al-Quwatli.
Ev o Şukrî Quwetlî hat Efrînê, û Çolaqê. This Shukri al-Quwatli, he came to Afrin and Cholaqa.
Bes, bi çûyînê hat Efrînê û Çolaqê. Yes, by going, he came to Afrin and Cholaqa.
Evna, wextê, îctîma'ê xwe yê perlemanê, l' Şamê, perlemanê rûdiniştin. These, during the time of their parliament meetings, in Damascus, they would sit in the parliament.
Ba'dê îctîma'ê xwe, xilas dibin, evna diçûn, mektebê reîsê cumhûrî rûdiniştin. After their meeting was finished, they would go and sit in the president's office.
Naîb diçûn, mektebê rûdiniştin. The deputies would go and sit in the office.
Ê, reîs cumhurî, mesxereyek bi Xelîl Axa ra kir. Well, the president joked with Khalil Agha.
Gotê, Xelîl Axa, gotê Zabadanî carê din... He said to him, Khalil Agha, he said Zabadani another time...
Xelîl Axa go "Na, min caran nedî ye", ha bi taybetî Xelîl axa jî timî l' mesyafê diçû wê derê mesyafê yanî. Khalil Agha said: "No, I haven't seen it." - especially Khalil Agha was always going to the resorts there, to the resort.
Go "Na min nedî ye Zabadanî." Ê go "te tişt dinê da nedî ye! Heyatê xwe te tişt nedî ye!" He said: "No, I haven't seen Zabadani." The president said: "You haven't seen anything else! You haven't seen anything in your life!"
Go "Te Blûdan dî ye?" Go "Na weleh", ê go "te tişt nedî ye!" He said: "Have you seen Bludan?" He said: "No, by God." He said: "You haven't seen anything!"
Destê xwe ha ra kir, He raised his hand like this.
Go: "Sual! Siyadet el-Reîs!" He said: "A question! Mr. President!"
Got: "Kerem be." He said: "Go ahead."
Go: "Siyadet el-Reîs, te Çolaqê dî ye?" He said: "Mr. President, have you seen Cholaqa?"
Go: "Na weleh, min nedî ye." He said: "No, by God, I haven't seen it."
Ê go: "Te jî tiştek nedî ye! Te gundê Feqîra dî ye?" Go "Na weleh." Go "te Gewrika dî ye?" "Na weleh." Go "evna gundên kî ne?" Well, he said: "You also, you also haven't seen anything! Have you seen the village of Faqiran?" He said "No, by God." He said "Have you seen Gawrika?" "No, by God." He said "Whose villages are these?"
Go: "Evna gundên min in! He said: "These are my villages!"
"Gundê têda, min in." "The villages we stayed in."
Ê, go "wellahî gava vê carê ez werim muhafezetê Helebê, go ez ê werim cem te Efrînê û Çolaqê." Well, he said: "By God, when I come to the Aleppo governorate this time, I will come to you, to Afrin and Cholaqa."
Û fi'len hat Efrînê û Çolaqê. And indeed he came to Afrin and Cholaqa.
Efrîn jî bi saya Xelîl Axa bû. Û tê de qismek cîranê me jî hebûn. Afrin was also thanks to Khalil Agha. And a part of our neighbors were also there.
Berî Xelîl Axa, bavê wî hebû, Mihemed? Evo? Before Khalil Agha, was his father there, Mihemed? Is that him?
Bavê xwe, Mihemed Axayê Seydo Mêmo digotin. Nav lê kirin Axa Mezin. His father, they called him Mihemed Agha of Seydo Memo. They named him the Great Agha.
Heta ku axaleran nav hev de, ji heft biran ra, axayê mezin li heftê danîn yanî. Even among the Aghas, among the seven brothers, they placed him as the Great Agha of the seven.
Zemanê.. sêwra Şêx Seîd de, axayê mezin muşareke kir, yanî Mihemed Axayê Seydo Mêmo muşareke kir. During the time of... Sheikh Said's revolution, the Great Agha participated, meaning Mihemed Agha of Seydo Memo participated.
Û eynî l' wê malê wefdê Şêx Seîd hatin l' wê derê. And in that exact same house, the delegation of Sheikh Said came there.
Ma'ne, sêwrê... evê wê kî çêkin. Meaning, the revolution... they were going to start it.
Xeber şand, Şêx Seîd ji kalê min re got, ma'ne bi me re hareke. They sent word, Sheikh Said told my grandfather, meaning 'make a move with us.'
Kalê min tab'an fawren cab da, got 'em hazir in, bi malê xwe, bi canê xwe, bi gî...' My grandfather, of course, replied immediately, he said 'we are ready, with our wealth, with our souls, with our lives...'
'Em ji kurdistanê xwe re em hazir in'. 'We are ready for our Kurdistan.'
Û ji axalerên din re jî şandin. Êlçî çûn axalerên din jî. And they also sent to the other Aghas. The messengers went to the other Aghas too.
Bes e muhîme, ev axayê mezin l'wê derê yekî go 'bajar gî çêkin'. But the important thing is, this great Agha there, someone said 'let's build a small city.'
'Bajar gî çêkin, ba go, nexwe weke ser avê da bajar gî çêkin.' 'Let's build a small city.' Then he said, 'well, go build a small city on the water.'
Van e wa bajarê Efrînê çêkir. So they built the city of Afrin.
Mihemed axayê Seydo Mêmo destpêkir, ji wir da, ji vir da destpê bû yane. Mihemed Agha of Seydo Memo started it, from there, from here it started.
Ew dem e, Efrîn çi bû? Firansa... tişt... qereqola, ev şaredarî, ew mehkeme, ew wan Firansa çêkir? At that time, what was Afrin? The French... things... police stations, this municipality, that court, did France build those?
Ê gundê Efrîn bi xwe ma hebû? Tê de, tab'an, destpê kirin bi înşaatê. Well, was the village of Afrin itself there? In it, of course, they started with construction.
Sarayê, û qesrê xwe girt, Xelîl axa. Khalil Agha took the palace and his mansion.
Û hebs û otêl û xan çêkirin. And he built a prison, a hotel, and a inn.
Ev tişt ha gişt çêkirin, teberru' bi hikûmetê kirin paşê. They built all these things, then they donated them to the government later.
Bi xwa, tenzîmê Efrîn, mûxettet, ji Fransa ji wan hat, mûxettet. Actually, the planning of Afrin, the blueprint, it came from France, the blueprint.
Nefs mûxettetê Barîs e yanî. Hawa kolanê wê dîtî.. înna wekî Parîs e.. evî Efrîn mûxettet in. It's the same blueprint as Paris. When you see its streets... so it's like Paris... they planned this Afrin.
Înna wekî şatrenc... çêbibe... ma'neya wê ew e yê... tîrêja rojê sihhîyen bi kî derê da tê. That it be like a chessboard... its meaning is that... the sun rays come in a healthy way everywhere.
Îman gir ew ki kuna... rojkê.. d'giş derê de tê. Believe me, every hole... the sun... reaches everywhere.
Gelek sihiyyan... tibbiyyan yanî. Very healthy... medically speaking.
Mala te ava be, sipas ji te re. May your house be prosperous, thank you.
Te re jî sipas. Ehlen û sehlen, ser çavên me... hatin we re jî ...em şa bûn, lagî we jî... Thank you too. Welcome, upon our eyes... we are glad you came... to us too...

Belê temaşevanên hêja, Yes, esteemed viewers,
Îro em l'gundê Çolaqan in. Today we are in the village of Cholaqan.
Me xwest, hinekî ji jiyana dengbêjê me ê nemir, Cemîl Horo... em pêşkêşî we bikin. We wanted to present to you a bit from the life of our immortal Dengbej, Cemil Horo.
Em derbazî, cem malbata wî bûn. Malbata wî li vir e. We have come to his family. His family is here.
Hizar rehmet l' gora dengbêjê nemir Cemîl Horo û hemî şehîdên me yê Kurda be. A thousand mercies on the grave of the immortal Dengbej Cemil Horo and all our Kurdish martyrs.
Di rojên cejnê da em derbaz bûn, me xwest em malbata wî jî nas bikin. We visited during the days of Eid, we wanted to get to know his family as well.
Merheba ji we re. Hello to you.
Ehlen wa sehlen, b'xêr hatin.. Welcome, you are welcome...
...Erê. Xwedê ez û... ehbabekî min, Doktor Ozod, ew ji hindê vî alî ma, em di gund de ne. Min go bernameya we xêr û welat hatiye, me go înşaellah wekî em karin em îstiqbal kin bi çavê xwe û bi dilê xwe. ...Yes. By God, me and a friend of mine, Doctor Ozod, I have reached these places, I am a villager. I said your program has arrived, God willing, as much as we can, we will welcome it with our eyes and our hearts.
Kek Dîro, te di çend perçeyên Kurdistanê, Cemîl Horo hat naskirin, û pir dengbêjên xelkê stranê wî gotin. Em dest pê bikin, em dixwazin malbata wî nas bikin. Brother Diro, in how many parts of Kurdistan was Cemil Horo known, and many local dengbêjs sang his songs. Let's start, we want to know his family.
Henîfe çend bira ne, çend xwîşk in? How many brothers and sisters does Hanîfe have?
Em pênc bira ne, yê mezin Piling. Da wî nas kirin bi navê vî Piling. Navê wî Ehmed bû. Rehmetî bû... Em çar mane di navna de. Dîkan min xwîşka xwe ye. Xwedê siheta we xweş ke. We are five brothers, the oldest is Piling. They knew him by the name of Piling. His name was Ahmed. He passed away... The four of us are left. The rest are my sisters. May God give you good health.
Kê dest bi vî karî kir? Who started this work?
Xwedê Elî heye birayê minî biçûk, û Ehmed heye xwedê wî beyle... eh, ha zor agahî ye beyle. Ew ji biçûkî dest bi karikî rakiribû. By God, there is Ali, my younger brother, and there is Ahmed, God... uh, he was very knowledgeable. He started working from a young age.
Tu jî stran nabêjî? Do you not sing as well?
Xwedê ez dibêjim. Lê em bi dengê Ehmed jî yê xweştir e. By God, I do. But Ahmed's voice is better than mine.
Em dixwazin, te zanîbû, me dixwast Cemîl Horo nas xweş ba em bidîta. We wish, you know, we wished Cemil Horo was alive and we could see him.
Emrî xwedê ye. It is God's will.
Ew dengbêjê ku me... bi rastî bê miraz di navna barkirin. Te temî bang dikirin azadî û bang dikirin Kurdistan. That dengbêj that we... truly passed away without achieving his goals. He always called for freedom and called for Kurdistan.
Baxê wî lê bi hesret çûn. Û neçarî jî dikir, zane. He passed away with longing. And he was helpless, you know.
E, pir cefa dît. Yanî li vir, li wa, hikûmeta... li vir pir hatin girtin, van û dîke de girtin... Yes, he suffered a lot. I mean here, there, the government... he was arrested here many times, they arrested him again...
Dewleta Sûriyê. Erê, di Sûriyê jî, û li Tirka jî, dema stranê Şêx Seîd, li wir jî em surgun bûn. The Syrian government. Yes, in Syria too, and in Turkey too, during the song of Sheikh Said, we were exiled there too.
Yanî pir geriyaye li Kurdistanê? Başûr, û nêzîk... Li Bakur û Başûr û Rojava, rojeke ava bû? I mean, has he traveled a lot in Kurdistan? The South, and close... In the North, South, and West, did he ever settle down for a day?
Belê. Ez am, demekî ku Cizîrê rûniştî bûm... Yes. When I lived in Cizire for a while...
Demek xwestek wî li dinyayê hebû. Digot 'ya rebî ma Kurdistan ava bibûya.' ... 'ez dixwazim ez di vî ser tirbeyê min...' ... 'ez bê bab û reb li Kurdistan ava bibûya, ez pê bihesim.' Lê ew bi hesreta xwe ya axînê pê ve çû. He had a wish in the world for a while. He used to say, 'Oh Lord, if only Kurdistan were built.' ... 'I want to be on my grave...' ... 'I would feel it even if I were without a father and Lord, if Kurdistan were built.' But he passed away with his sighing longing.
Ew Neşet Ertaş heye, ... ew jî dengbêjek Tirkan e, bi nav û deng e... ew jî berî vî rehmetî bû. There is Neşet Ertaş... he is also a Turkish dengbêj, famous... he also passed away before him.
Piştî rehmetî bû. He passed away after him.
Piştî rehmetî bû. Hemî televîzyonên Tirkan, rojnamevanên Tirkan behs dikirin, digotin Neşet Ertaş stranên Cemîl Horo dibêje. He passed away after him. All Turkish televisions, Turkish journalists were talking, they were saying Neşet Ertaş sings Cemil Horo's songs.
Bi xwedê birêz ez nagihiştime wan tiştan, lê hema tenbûrvanekî ku ji vira ji Kurda re... Wahîd, Wahîd Xelîl li wir radihiştin, je nas zane. By God, sir, I could not reach those things, but there was a tambura player from here for the Kurds... Wahid, they used to bring Wahid Xelil there, he knew him.
Ew dibû wesîlete bera qêy wî bavê min, û ji Neşed ra, çunkî ewe ku nav bavê min... ewe ku dixwaze xweşiya xwe nîşan bide, ... dixwaze şirîtek ji xwe ra bîne. Digot "ez dixwazim tu şirîtan xwedê jî rahêlî." He became a means for my father, and for Neşed, because he knew my father's name... he who wants to show his goodness... wants to bring a tape for himself. He said, "I want you to bring the tapes too, for God's sake."
Û diz dikirin, dixwaze şirîta dibe, ew ê li ser wî... dibê wî tiştek ji min ra bîne ew... And they used to steal, he wanted the tape, the one about him... he said to bring me something from him...
E, ser vî, Tirka hemî behs dikirin, digotin, gellek... evanê ku rojnamevan jî hene... wan jî di gotin yane. Yes, about this, the Turks all talked, they said, a lot... those who are journalists too... they also said it, I mean.
Televîzyonên Tirkan û rojnamevanên Tirkan hemî behs dikir, Neşet Ertaş stranên Cemîl Horo dibêje, bes mixabin... ragihandina Kurda tune bû yane... ew tiştên dengbêjên me dikirin ... ba te ser vê tiştî zanîbû, nizanîbû? Turkish televisions and Turkish journalists all talked, saying Neşet Ertaş sings Cemil Horo's songs, but unfortunately... there was no Kurdish media, I mean... those things our dengbêjs did... did you know about this thing or not?
Bi xwedê ez nizanim ez negihiştim van tiştan. By God, I don't know, I didn't reach these things.
Belê temaşevanan hêca, li vir jî em ê xatirê xwe ji we bixwazin. Li vir jî em gihiştin dawiya bernameya xwe. Îro em li gundê Çolaqa bûn. Me bi hev re gundê Çolaqa nas kir. Yes, esteemed viewers, here we will say goodbye to you. Here we have reached the end of our program. Today we were in the village of Cholaqa. Together we got to know the village of Cholaqa.
Heta hefteyekî din, em ê dîsa bi hev re bin, di bernameyekî me ya... Until another week, we will be together again, in a program of ours...
