Ev gundê Şadêrê jî, di sînor da ye, navbera Efrînê û Helebê da ye. This village of Şadêrê is on the border, between Afrin and Aleppo.
Nêzî Kelha Semanê ye. Yaliyekî wî Çiyayê Lêlûnê ye, yaliyekî wî jî Deşta Cûmê ye. It is close to the Citadel of Simeon. One side of it is Mount Lelun, and one side of it is the Cumê Plain.
Ev gund hemî malbatek in. Ev gund berê hemî Êzîdî bûn. This village is all one family. Previously, this village was all Yezidis.
Di demekê de hinek bûn Misilman, hinek jî di ser ola xwe de mane. At a certain time, some became Muslims, and some remained in their religion.
De ka vê hefteyê jî em derbasî gundê Şadêrê bibin. Well then, let's enter the village of Şadêrê this week too.
Merheba stêro. Hello uncle.
Ehlen we sehlen heval. Welcome friend.
Qewet be ji we ra. Strength to you.
Ehlen we sehlen ser serî me, ser çavê me. Sax be. Welcome, you are upon my head and eyes. Be healthy.
Îro em derbasî gundê Şadêrê bûn. Today we entered the village of Şadêrê.
Me got em destpêkê derbasî ba we bin nav vê zevînê, nav darên fêkî. We said let's come to you first in this field, among the fruit trees.
Ehlen we sehlen. Welcome.
Em destpêkê te nas bikin. Let's get to know you first.
Ehlen we sehlen. Ez Xelîl Nebo me. Bavê Cemîl ji min re dibêjin. Şadêrî me. Welcome. I am Xelil Nebo. They call me the father of Cemil. I am from Şadêrê.
Ser çavan. Apo hecî, yanî tu di ber de dibînî Deşta Cûmê, va ra. Upon my eyes. Uncle hajji, I mean you see the Cumê Plain right there.
Hemî darên fêkî ne. Bavê Cemîl, kengî ev darên fêkî çandine? They are all fruit trees. Father of Cemil, when were these fruit trees planted?
Heval, di bidayê me xwedî nedikir, erdê Cûmê berê giyê xam tê da bûn. Friend, in the beginning, we didn't own them, the Cumê land used to have wild grass in it.
Yanî bor bûn teqrîben. Ermenî hatin cem me, meşrûek vekirin. I mean they were roughly barren. Armenians came to us, opened a project.
Av çêkirin bo sê gundên me: Xezawiyê, Şadêrê, Bircê. They provided water for our three villages: Xezawiyê, Şadêrê, Bircê.
Ba'dî ev meşrûê wan jî feşelî. Teben riz diçandin. After that, their project failed too. Of course, they planted rice.
Li kuderê? Av ji kuderê? Where? Water from where?
Av ji Efrînê, ava Efrînê, çem dikişandine deşta Cûmê. Water from Afrin, Afrin's water, the river was drawn to the Cumê Plain.
Av derbasî ba sê çar gundê me kirin. Hev diçandin, çeltîk diçandin. The water passed by three or four of our villages. They planted, they planted paddy.
Çeltîk yanî riz diçandin. Paddy, meaning they planted rice.
Ba'dî wan tiştan berdan, feşelî. Fetilîn zirîraeta pembû, pembû çandin. After that, they abandoned those things, it failed. They turned to cotton farming, they planted cotton.
Pembû jî berdan, teb'en milet jî pêşve ket, hinekî hatin pêş. They abandoned cotton too, of course, the people advanced, they came forward a bit.
Fetilîn bîr kolayîn, mator û tirimpe rakirin. They turned to digging wells, they brought motors and pumps.
Şixulandin. Erdê xwe hemî ajotin. They operated them. They ploughed all their land.
Kirin darber. Niha darên hinarê, teqrîben ji sedî hefta û pênc darên hinarê li cem me hene. They turned it into orchards. Now pomegranate trees, roughly 75 percent of the trees are pomegranates here with us.
Rûyê din jî, xox hene, çeftelî hene. On the other hand, there are peaches, there are nectarines.
Sêv hene, mişmiş hene. Çi fêkiya te divê gî li ba me heye di herêma me, gundên me da hene. There are apples, there are apricots. Whatever fruit you want is here with us, in our region, in our villages.
Bîstan jî hene? Are there gardens too?
Bîstan jî hene. Xudre jî heye. Gî heye. There are gardens too. Vegetables too. There is everything.
Bes darên zeytûnê tê de nînin? Only olive trees are not in it?
Cem me berê zeytûn hebûn. We used to have olives before.
Bes sêkirin entaca xwe zêde tê de nîne. But they looked, its yield is not much there.
Hilkirin. Yanî heye niha qismekî basît zeytûn di gundê me da mane. They uprooted them. I mean there is now a simple portion of olives left in our village.
Çend hiktar mane. A few hectares remain.
Ê piraniya xwe çi diçînin wa ye? And what do they mostly plant there?
Piraniya xwe hinar in. Hinar in ekterşî. Mostly it's pomegranates. It's mostly pomegranates.
Naha jî dema sêva ye. Now is also the time for apples.
Sêva ye, sêv in, xox in, çeftelî xilas bûn. Canerk xilas bûn. It's apples, they are apples, peaches, nectarines are finished. Plums are finished.
Evana xilas bûn, niha sêv mane. Armûd hene. These are finished, now apples remain. There are pears.
Ev tişt gî cem me hene. We have all these things here.
Teben ba'dî van tiştan xilas dibe jî mevsima xwe, çend rojekî din bi fetile hinarê wêrin, berafkirina hinarê mevsima hinara ye. Of course, after these things finish their season, in a few days they will turn to pomegranates, harvesting pomegranates, it's pomegranate season.
Piştî wê. Yanî kar ba we tim heye. After that. I mean you always have work.
Tim heye, karê me tim heye. Ji ber ku erdê me avî ne, av li cem me pir e. Always there, our work is always there. Because our lands are irrigated, we have plenty of water.
Çi dixwaze cem me heye. Whatever you want is here.
Hûn avê ji ku tînin naha? Te digot em çem derdixistin berê? Where do you bring water from now? You said we used to get it from the river before?
Naha av a çem e, meşrûek çêkirin. Niha ava meşrûyê tê cem me. Now the water is from the river, they made a project. Now the project water comes to us.
Sê gundên me: Bircê, û Xezawiyê, û Şadêrê. Ev her sê. Our three villages: Bircê, Xezawiyê, and Şadêrê. These three.
Berî niha 'etil jî, meşrûê çêbûbû. Matorê de 'etil çêbûbû. Before now it also broke down, the project. The motor had broken down.
Fetilî de vêrda, me matora xwe bi xwe xistin. It turned around here, we installed our motor ourselves.
Niha jî, bû deh roj av e. Avê sê dema dordiguhere tê ava meşrûyê ye. Now too, it's been water for ten days. Water goes three times, takes a turn, comes. This is the project water.
Teben milet îro bi xwe bi xwe nav hev da em iştirak kirine, mesareta xwe dikin, zêta xwe dikin, û vê meşrûyê em dişuxulînin. Her sê gund jî avê didin. Of course, the people today have contributed among themselves, they pay their expenses, their oil, and we run this project. All three villages give water.
Birc, Xezawî û Şadêrê wa. Birc, Xezawî, and Şadêrê like that.

Evana ser meseleyekî bûyerekê ye, roja avabûna derbas bû li Kurdistanê Rojava min nivîsiye. These are about an issue, an event... that day that passed in Rojava Kurdistan, I wrote it.
Li Rojava dohol û şer e. In Rojava there is drum and war.
Gazî deke li guhê ker e. He calls to the deaf ears.
Govenda şêran xweş digere. The dance of lions goes well.
Were kurdo ji xewa giran e. Come Kurd from the deep sleep.
Ji refê me birin para gur e. From our flock they took the wolf's share.
Bila ro nere û nehurre. May the day not pass and not crumble.
Hev Da'îş e, nega were. This is Daesh, look come.
Serê zaroka zû dibire. It cuts the heads of children early.
Haya te pê hebe nega were. Were kurdo ji xewa giran. Be aware of it, look come. Come Kurd from the deep sleep.
Tu razî be, li min û te ev qeder e. You be content, for me and you this is destiny.
Paşî dem bihurî, wê poşmaniyê neke. After the time passes, don't have regrets.
Êê.. Stara, em ê niha kurdo, xwediyê vî gundî. Stara, now we will [meet] Kurdo, the owner of this village.

Paşê çûn avêtin, her kesek bi halê xwe ma, kaniyê fireh kirin. ev kaniyê cem me derecek hene, da ku em dakevin ta qatê yekem. Then they left it, everyone went their own way, they expanded the spring. This spring has stairs for us, so that we can go down to the first level.

Di strana Derwêşê Ebdî digot... di strana Seyadê Şamed digot... ew qas klam we kî kî got. I would sing the song of Derwêşê Ebdî... I would sing the song of Seyadê Şamed... so many songs as whoever sang.
Tu j'wan fêrbû? Did you learn from them?
Welle ew çax bawer e ez bixwe wî xêra xwe kelamkî datînim. By God at that time believe me I myself for goodness sake used to make up a song.
Bi wî min digot jî ew buçar sed mebest me... me ji bîr kir. Mi gişk ji bîr kir... With that I also sang, that was four hundred meanings of ours... we forgot. I forgot it all...
Berê ew... te gund da kerda me ez şe kelaman te girêdana te ji min ra dît. Before that... you built a village, I tied six verses to it for you.
Ev rojekî ez çûme cema pismamekî şahbanî ye ez pismamê wî me. One day I went to a cousin who is Şahbanî, I am his cousin.
Gotine ez qelamce kî gotina? Did they say that I sang a song?
Nevesîn a... eger tu daxwaz kî we em qebûl... em tu. It is not written... if you request we will accept... you and us.
Kî? Ro kî hate... tu got ro kî bû mêvan? Who? One day who came... you said one day who was a guest?
Celal hat wata... Celîl e Celîl. Celîl hat. Celal came you meant... Celil, it's Celil. Celil came.
Welle Celîl hate ba xelqê ku daxwaza min kir daxwaza Cebel kir. Emrê min kêm bû celîl zêde giran bû... By God, Celil came to the people who requested me, they requested Cebel. My age was less, Celil was very heavy...
Hatinê ba we go daxwaz kî... bavê mi Nasir... mêvanê me ye ew daxwaz kir ye em tu herî cem. They came to you saying he has a request... my father Nasir... he is our guest, he requested that you go to him.
Me go mêvanê te kîye? Go emrê te dirêj be Celîl e. We said who is your guest? He said may your life be long, it's Celil.
Mi go wî Celîl! Mi go welle ez naçime cema we. I said that Celil! I said by God I will not go to your place.
Nîvê go tişt mi go welle cî cema wî ez te xebaran we we nasnakim ha em çi bikin li ser we cema wî... Half of it they said things, I said by God in his place, I won't understand your talk, what will we do in his place...
Welle ez cema wî neçûme. By God I did not go to his place.
Bêguman wê demê da wilo te stran got te xweş deng bûn. Without a doubt, back then you sang songs like that, you had a good voice.
Da te kî nas dikir ku da xwest ku tu tu herî civata wan te stanana bêjî? So who knew you to request you to go to their gathering to sing songs?
Lo min Cebel digot, min delal digot, mi memê digot, em Hesenîyo digot, mi... cemaat... daxwaz dikirin. Man, I sang Cebel, I sang Delal, I sang Memê, we sang Hesen, I... the gathering... used to request them.
J'xwe çend roj in ez jibîr dikim bave min... daxwazek j'we qîmeta xwe tune ye. Ez we... tişta jibîr dikim. Anyway, for a few days I have been forgetting my friend... a request from you has no value. I... forget things.
Te ji xwe re... te nizanîba ev çax e. For yourself... you wouldn't have known this time.
Yanî derfet tine bû te strana got? Yan demek te stran bernedan? So was there no opportunity for you to sing? Or didn't you give up singing for a while?
Na derfet tine bû. Mirov qeçik dibin... mirov mesref dibin... mirov meşxûl dibin... tu qe wilo... êdî bîr diki. No there was no opportunity. People have children... people have expenses... people get busy... you just like that... you forget it then.
Erê weke me. Yes just like us.
Ra dikir qeddar e. Darê dilberiya, bala xwe da qapî... He raised it, he is fierce. The staff of dilberî, he looked at the gate...
...Erezê rûme e toz û hecacekî radibe û datîne... Gavan dar ra dikir qeddare, darê dilberiya bala xwe da zok e ...Erezê rûmê, a dust storm is rising and settling... The cowherd raised his staff, he is fierce, the staff of dilberî, he looked at Zok.
Eskerî hukumtiyê suware kelek danîne kelek e ew e. The government soldiers are mounted, they set up rafts, those are the rafts.
Berê xwedane konê Cebel e kurê mîrî. Eker e xwedanê textî şemşîrî. Bîngolê gamguma qehweyê ye. They headed for the tent of Cebel the son of the prince. Eker is the owner of the throne of swords. The Bingöl of the coffee pot.
Paye bûne pera odê. Go axa wa şest salin ketîye salê heftê ye... tu teslîm naqî vîda eydada hûkmetiye... çadare. They arrived at the edge of the room. He said, Agha, see it's been sixty years, entered the year of seventy... you don't surrender the government taxes to them... the tent owner.
Ferman e j'Stenbola rabû vaye giha e destê me de. Ya tê eydade we gundiya bidî... ya daxil we li bavê te rabû wê he... An order arose from Istanbul and reached our hands. Either you will pay the taxes of the villagers... or the destruction will rise against your father...
Ca bare xwe bidin re Cebel î kene re wî re derbas bibin xwe... dîş ji bîr kirim lawo dîş.. Tell them to step aside so Cebel can laugh and pass by them... I forgot it again boy, I forgot it again...
Mala te ava apo, sax bî we wî demê we te xweş axivî. God bless your home uncle, stay healthy, at that time you spoke nicely.
Te çi got evê te axivî axaftin te xweş axivî. What you said, what you spoke, you spoke nicely.
Belê temaşevanên hêja, di her gundekî de jî cihê pîroz hene. Yes dear viewers, in every village there are sacred places.
Ziyaret hene. Me go em ê derbasî cem vê ziyareta vê gundî jî bin ziyareta... There are shrines. We said we would pass by the shrine of this village as well, the shrine of...
Şêx Riqab e. Em ê derbas bibin, jin jî li wir in, em ê silavê bidin wan jî. Şêx Riqab. We will pass by, women are there too, we will greet them as well.
Merheba jinno. Hello ladies.
Ehlen wesahlen... ser çavan... merheba we... ser sera... bi xêr hatin. Welcome... upon our eyes... hello to you... upon our heads... welcome.
Belê temaşevanên hêja di gundê Şadêrê de me weke em derbas bûn cem ziyaretê jî jinên vî gundî jî hemî hatine ber ziyaretê. Yes dear viewers, in the village of Şadêrê as we passed by the shrine, all the women of this village have come to the shrine.
Me go em ê silav ke bidine wan a. Merheba jinno. We said we will give them a greeting. Hello ladies.
Silav, marhebteyn, sax bin. Greetings, hello twice, stay healthy.
Dayê wûn derbas bûn wûn çibûn qe pîroz hene di nava ziyareta de wê hemî jin tevlî bûne û wûn hene. Mother, you passed by, you became something holy, there are those among the shrine where all the women have joined and you are there.
Wûn tiştên ser vê ziyaretê zanin? Do you know things about this shrine?
Em qasi em zanin e miraza ye. Rû spî e... ro îniye têne e... As much as we know, it is for wishes. The white-haired... comes on Friday...
Qîzik wûn e... jin tê... mirazê wan e tiştekin e derdek we heye daxwaziya te qebûl nabe daxwaziya Xwedê zîq û zare daxwaz te... jin der nabe du'a dikin xweş e bîna xwe tê de tîne. Xwedê rast dike. Girls you... women come... it's their wish, they have some troubles, your request isn't accepted, God's request is loud and clear for your request... women who can't go out, they pray, it's nice, she breathes in it. God makes it right.
Wek e nexweşî qenc bibin... Such as sicknesses getting cured...
Kî ne nexweş be wexte we eger zîq dikin e du'a dikin tu diqede wê jina holik a... hal nabe şeş sal, hewt sal de. Wekî Xwedê lê meqûl nekî te rehmê. Whoever is sick, when you... if they tie strings and pray, you get over it, that poor woman... doesn't get pregnant for six years, seven years. If God doesn't deem it appropriate, he won't show mercy.
Yanî qet nabe paşê çêdibe? Te weke kîjan da bibînî mesela mînakê de kes nabe we dîtîyê? So they absolutely can't, then it happens? Like which one have you seen for example, have you seen anyone who couldn't?
Gund nuka ewe jink e heye... em... emê dîtin. There is a woman in the village right now... we... we saw it.
Tu vî gundî de dijî? Do you live in this village?
Ew aliyê apê mi li wîda bû. Ew qe hal jê çê nabe xwe ne derwete me girê dida di gund heta dawî hembêza xwe tije dibe... Elhemdulillah weşandina te xelq bûn te qebûl dibûn. My uncle's side was over there. She couldn't get pregnant at all, she wasn't going out, we tied it in the village until finally her lap became full... Praise be to God, your spreading was created and accepted.
Xwedê mirazê wan kir... God fulfilled their wish...
Xwedê li her kesî ke, li te jî be. May God fulfill it for everyone, for you too.
Spas dayê. Kerem ke em ji vê xaltîkê bipirsin, ew jî ji wera wek wera heye. Thank you mother. Please, let's ask this auntie, she is also here for you like you.
Ehlen wesahlan... ser çavan xêr hatî. Ser çavan re. Hello auntie.
Ehlen wesahlan... ser çavan xêr hatî. Ser çavan re. Welcome... upon my eyes, welcome. Upon my eyes.
Sax bî dayê. Stay healthy mother.
Dayê weke navî wî e ev e cihî we kî... îroj roja îniyê we di ziyaretê dibîne? Mother as its name is... this is your place... today is Friday, you see yourselves in the shrine?
Em nuka ewe roja îniyê ye da em derketin ser ziyaretê weha. Now it's Friday, so we came out to the shrine like this.
Ê tu çi dazanîn ser vê ziyaretê, ji me re çi dibêjî? So what do you know about this shrine, what can you tell us?
Welle yabo, kî çin ne daxwaza xwe bikî mesele e, miraza te... e... miraz xwest tu we tu dihatî em çep dikirin. By God brother, whoever makes a request for example, your wish... um... asked for a wish, you would come and we would circumambulate.
Mesele axa wî dibirin. Xwe pê de dedan. Mesele êşeke em bi serî heye tu dibîn e yan pir êşe ku der e diçûn ber... e xêr dibîn e Xwedê dikir em e paş ve nedin, ew dikirin paş ve ew rihet di bûn welle. For instance, they used to take its soil. They would apply it on themselves. For instance, if there is a headache, you see it or if it hurts a lot, they would go to... get a blessing, God would make it so we didn't back down, they would heal and feel better by God.
Puşik, ev pûşik e l'ber ziyareta da we... berê l'şewatan... puşik derman di birîn a ser di xistin... ziyarete we diçû ewan derman dikirin e wî der bûn piçûk re rihet dibûn ji pûşik... Straws, there were these straws in front of the shrine... in the past for burns... they would put straws as medicine on the wound... you went to the shrine, they would treat those little areas and they would feel better from the straw...
Û e kî hewal bû ew qîzikê kî giha bûn... û êdî te yê tişt ne e daxwaz kî we kî l'baxçê kî we tu te gihayî kî em giha tişti we nedikirin tu kî... em gihayê wî ziyareta we xwe kir... l'hev girê didan em wî l'vîderê we li ser te wilo li wir girê didan. And whoever was pregnant... or when those girls had grown up... and you wouldn't ask for things like in a garden you grew up, we didn't do anything to the grass you... we grew up in that shrine... they tied it together, we tied it here like this on you over there.
Ew bûkê we de bu. We giyanê Xwedê xêr diki rehma Xwedê diki we li cem kî xwedê li wê... te xeyr xwedê hew e her der dîtîye min ê l'we mîras girt her tişt e... That bride would have a child. You souls, God blesses, God's mercy is upon you, to whoever God is there... you have seen God's goodness everywhere, I received the inheritance of everything from you...
Elhemdulellah em bê zîyaret we te nebûn we bi rehma xwe ew ziyaret bi xêre di bi xwe da. Miraza we de bi rehma xweda te qebul dibin miraz te yê diqede xêr be bi Xwedê xêr be lê te rehm. Praise be to God, we were never without the shrine, it's out of His mercy, that shrine is full of goodness in itself. Your wishes are accepted by God's mercy, your wish is fulfilled, may it be good, by God may it be good, He has mercy on you.
Yanî pêş e kî dît we taba e? So whoever came first saw the benefit?
Bawarîye xweşko me we wî bawarî be wî te we kî e zet zet zet ji quloqê yê yekî din ê şêt ji quloqê wî tu tişt tunebû we wî der de dît xwe zete we l'vira peyde bû we peyda dikir te re digot. It is a belief, my dear sister, you must have belief in it. For instance, oil, oil, oil, if someone's ear hurts, if there is nothing for his ear, you would find it there, you found the oil here, you found it and it would be applied.
Weqas qewîn çêdikir ku heta sibê hay ji sibê bi xwe nedihase. It was making it so strong that one wouldn't notice the morning until it arrived.
Xew dikir... Quloq û ew çibûn? They fell asleep... what were those ears and things?
Tenê baweriya xwe pê bîkî. Te baweriya xwe pê neanî gi tişt feyda nake. Te bi ez bim hekîm. You just have to believe in it. If you didn't believe in it, nothing would help. Even if I were a doctor.
Da em bibînin. Let's see then.
Berê hekîm tunebûn, di wextê me da em negihîştinê, bav û kalê me da hekîm tunebûn ev hekîm bû. Heft zaret hekîm bû. There were no doctors in the past, in our time we didn't have access to them, in our ancestors' time there were no doctors, this was the doctor. Seven shrines were doctors.
Dihatin xwe çêdikirin li vir, axa wê di xwe didan, pûşik li şeva xwe didan, keska wê destê xwe girê didan. Canê xwe girê didan. They used to come and heal themselves here, they would rub its soil on themselves, put on the night covers, and tie its green cloth on their arms. They would tie themselves up.
Mirazê xwe çi dixwestin, qîzik keske destê xwe girê da, di mirazê me bixwazî, lawikî, ê ger mirazê xwe bixwaze hez bike. Filan keçkê ew kevir pêve bizeliqîne. Whatever their wish was, if a girl tied the green cloth to her arm, asking for a wish, or a boy, if he wanted a wish or loved someone. Like, "stick that stone for a certain girl".
Keskê destê xwe girê da na mimkune ew miraze nabe bes nete safî, baweriya xwe pê bîne. Tying the green cloth to the arm, it's impossible that the wish doesn't come true, as long as the intention is pure and you believe in it.
Da we berî ev odaştê re hewaldan, divê li dera wîda So before you built this room, it was supposed to be there...
Sê roj, û heya heftakê esas kolan vir dikirin zaret. They basically dug for three days, or up to a week, making this place a shrine.
Sibê radibûn, yê pişt digirtin heya nîvê dagon. In the morning, they would get up, supporting it up to halfway through.
Sibê radibûn kevir hatin dera gihaştin ma kê ne bi karamete ev kevir deh edemî dihatin vir! kevir gi dicirîn, dihatin vir. In the morning, they woke up and the stones had arrived here. Isn't it a miracle, these stones, ten men would come here! The stones would all slide and come here.
Piştî sibê radibûn, mane, meto şehîd li wî şûnî şehîd ketiye vir, vir kolan, vir kirne zaret. Then in the morning they would get up, meaning, wait, a martyr fell here in this place, so they dug here and made it a shrine.
Tirbe heye? Is there a tomb?
Tirbe heye çida ya? lê! hebû tirbe hebû, ê xwedê jê neqawze na razîbe. What do you mean is there a tomb? Yes! There was, there was a tomb, may God not accept it, may He not be satisfied.
Kolan, kûc zaretê hanî kolan qîzerî digerin. They dug it up, they brought out the entire shrine, digging and searching.
Ê de yanî her tiştek, yane naku hewe bû, î de dizanî dinê çiye. Well, I mean, everything, it wasn't like that, well you know how the world is.
Dayê ez tiştek li te bipirsim nav di gundê we da... hinek êzidî ne hinek misilman in navan tev bi dîne bes hemû malbateke. Ji we kî êzidîye, kî misilman e? Mother, let me ask you something. In your village... some are Yezidi, some are Muslim, they are of different religions but all are one family. Which of you are Yezidi and which are Muslim?
Me me seke, şereflera, me şereflera em şereflara ridibin... em gi şereflera ne. Sê bavin, balki ji derava jî qe te bele girin. Look at us, Şereflera, we call ourselves Şereflera... we are all Şereflera. There are three ancestors, maybe someone from outside told you.
Bavkê min êzidî ma. Male Cume Şeref êzidî man, Mela Omer, Cume Şeref êzdî man û jibo me jî bavkê min êzidî ma. My father remained Yezidi. The family of Cume Şeref remained Yezidi, Mela Omer, Cume Şeref remained Yezidi, and for us, my father remained Yezidi.
Heya bavkê min negihaşt me ez li ber serî bum, yane sê mehan min xizmeta wî kir. Bavikê min êzdî bû. Until my father passed away, I was by his side, meaning I took care of him for three months. My father was Yezidi.
Jinbirakê min yanî ruspiyê gund di hatin lavê xalkê bû hecî Mihemed di xwe jî got em te bişon di islama kîn, got na. My sister-in-law, meaning the village elders came, asking for the people's favor, Heci Mihemed himself said, "Let us wash you and make you Muslim", he said no.
Got ez fî helal nakim jinbirakê mi kirî got ez wî helal nakim...got fane ne bi mi bo êzdiya rakin. He said "I will not forgive this," referring to what my sister-in-law did, he said "I will not forgive this... don't lift me with the Yezidis."
Rabun şûştin bi Hemîdê Qeydî, meşayixa Hisên û Hemîdê Qeydî.. gotinê xabira gotin. They washed him with Hemîdê Qeydî, the elders of Hisên and Hemîdê Qeydî... they spoke their words.
Gotin vêra gotin ê Xalkî ez avê te kim hecî tu bişo, got na..Şêx Hisên qazî ye tu bişo û Hemîdê Qeydî eva la mikir.. They told him, "O son of Xalkî, let me pour the water so you, Heci, can wash him," he said no... "Şêx Hisên is the judge, you wash him," and Hemîdê Qeydî did this...
Yanî bavê te êzidi bû tu çiyî? So your father was Yezidi, what are you?
Bavê min êzidi bû, ez islama me. Em dan islame. My father was Yezidi, I am Muslim. We were converted to Islam.
Û lawekî apê min e yanî nexerîbe ez tişte çû bun gundê me gi êzidî bû. And my uncle's son, I mean, don't be surprised, when I went, our whole village was Yezidi.
Dast pênka gi êzidî bi ji hev ferq bûne.. hinekî bi misilma bûn. Û hinek ji dînê Mihemed katin û bi xwendinê... At first everyone was Yezidi, then they differed... some became Muslim. And some entered the religion of Muhammad and by reading...
Quran xwendin û filan xwendin birayê min ji bi xwe xwend anî kir.. Reading the Quran and so on, my own brother also read and did it...
Ka we got wande berî em teken e ... wa got haruya ... Well, you were saying before we came in... you said every day...
Her ro îni qîzik tên, keçik tên, can tên pîr tên yek wisa nabî mşa wera. Every Friday girls come, children come, youth come, old women come, one doesn't simply come here without a reason.
Ji Xazi ve Şedera... de hatin vira çira ve dixin, şamî ya ve dixin.. kevirê xwe bi dîvara dizeliqînin. From Xazi to Şedera... they come here and light a lamp, light a candle... they stick their stones to the wall.
Paçikê xwe girê diden.. mirazê xwe dixwazin, û duxu dilê ve yande neya. O pêxember ji lê vêra xêrê di ke.. û şahîd ji vir ra.. xêrê dika... They tie their cloth pieces... they ask for their wishes, and pure intentions from the heart. And the prophet also grants goodness here... and the martyr from here... brings goodness...
Ro rojhilat rojhilat dilê me wek polat em şev û roj bende kin kovelat, wer em bikin kar û xebat alî evîn û med û mehbet ... Sun, east, east, our hearts like steel, day and night we are servants of the homeland, let's work and toil towards love, hope, and affection...
Hey Diyarbekir hey Diyarbekir.. çi ra te ji bîr kir bes lond o wan vir ve xidan bilind kir navê welatê me şirîn kir. Oh Diyarbakir, oh Diyarbakir... why did you forget, enough of this, they raised themselves high here and made the name of our country sweet.
Mleta va ve xudake mo seva ne das va şti ra, şata ji ave yoo sate xweş û ahla we sahla ser çava .. May God reward you, thank you for your hands and things, have a good time and welcome, upon my eyes...
Di quntara çiyayê Lēlūnê da, li başūrê gund, ziyareteke bi navê "Mar ū Dêrūki" heye. In the foothills of Mount Lelun, south of the village, there is a shrine called "Mar û Dêrûki".
Heft gundên derdora mīriyê xwe tînin vê goristanê ū binax dikin. Seven surrounding villages bring their dead to this cemetery and bury them.
Ev zīyaret bi navê "Şêx Rīkab" tê naskirin. This shrine is known by the name "Şêx Rîkab".
Di roja înê da, bawermendên ola İslāmê serdana vê ziyaretgehê dikin. On Fridays, believers of the Islamic faith visit this shrine.
Ji bo ku Xwedê miradê wan pēk bīne du'a ū niyazan dikin. They pray and make offerings so that God fulfills their wishes.
Di roja çarşemê da jî bawermendên ola Êzdī, serdana heman zīyaretgehê dikin. On Wednesdays, believers of the Yezidi faith also visit the exact same shrine.
Belê temaşevanên hêja, çawa dem derbas bû, em pê nehesiyan. Yes, dear viewers, we didn't realize how the time passed.
Îro me li gundê Şadêrê derbas kir, wext zû derbas bû, zû êvar bû. Today we spent our time in the village of Şadêrê, time passed quickly, evening came fast.
Êvar li me da hat, em bihêvî ne, bernameya me bi dilê we bû. Evening fell upon us, we hope you enjoyed our program.
Di xeleka bernameyeke din, li gundekî din em ê dîsa bi hev re bin. In another episode of the program, in another village, we will be together again.
