[02:03]Apê Mihemed: Since the old days, we are well-known.

[02:06]Apê Mihemed: The village of Baliya, with its water, its sweetness, whatever area exists here, surely every head (person) must have visited it once.

[02:28]Apê Mihemed: Yes... The village... curse it...

[02:30]Apê Mihemed: Oh, the threshing floor you see here now, it remained in the North (Turkey).

[02:35]Apê Mihemed: Our property, our property extends two, three, four kilometers out, our village is now left over there.

[02:41]Host: Meaning all your property fell on that side?

[02:43]Apê Mihemed: No, the majority remained there. Our village is there. Just as there is a village here now, we have another village over there. It remained in the North.

[02:51]Host: Now you cannot [see] your fathers and mothers coming? Wasn't this wire fence created now...?

[02:54]Apê Mihemed: No, the wire was created...

[02:57]Apê Mihemed: They planted bombs [mines], the wire was created, they cut the line.

[03:02]Apê Mihemed: Five kilometers of land is forbidden, prohibited, no one goes. Not by night, not by day, no sheep, no donkey, nothing, no one goes.

[03:10]Host: Uncle Mihemed, how many households is the village of Baliya now?

[03:13]Apê Mihemed: Uh... there are sixty households.

[03:15]Host: Sixty like this?

[03:27]Apê Mihemed: Besides those who went outside the village. Because of this line [border], because of this border, because of...

[03:32]Host: No...

[03:34]Host: Meaning because you suffered hardships, you headed to the town of Bulbul, and you settled there now?

[03:39]Apê Mihemed: Yes, but here, we were harassed.

[03:42]Apê Mihemed: You see the outpost right here, barefoot, barefoot [figurative: close/oppressive] it sat on our heads.

[03:47]Apê Mihemed: Should the enemy come and sit right on top of your head?

[03:49]Apê Mihemed: The enemy comes and sits right on top of your head. Who would accept that? By God, faith does not accept it. Just look over there now.

[03:57]Apê Mihemed: The enemy is there sitting right on top of your head, how are you going to accept that?

[04:02]Apê Mihemed: In this village, we have property, grass [pasture], thank God. They are owners of property uh...

[04:08]Host: Uncle Mihemed, now your village, you said when we pass into Baliya, did you see other houses were built too?

[04:13]Apê Mihemed: Yes.

[04:17]Apê Mihemed: Yes, that is also our village but...

[04:19]Apê Mihemed: Of course, those are also all our village. Thank God, the village is happy. The village...

[04:24]Host: What do they call this place, Alke village?

[04:25]Apê Mihemed: Like this, they are Alke village. Approximately sixty years ago, they got up from here and went over there, now I...

[04:31]Apê Mihemed: Over there is grand property, grand lands. They went from this place here, and took that place there. There is water there too, springs are there too. They went from this place, got up and settled [there] until now.

[04:41]Host: But the name was transferred again, no? Not Alke village... the former Baliya?

[04:45]Apê Mihemed: No, Alke village... Uh... At the other place, you said Baliya, look... it all becomes one. But here our name is like a small settlement, we call it "Posh mola" [Back of the houses?].

[04:55]Apê Mihemed: By the spring. That is the same.

[04:58]Host: Alke village, there is another village in the Shera district, right?

[05:01]Apê Mihemed: Yes, that is Alke village, that Alke village...

[05:05]Apê Mihemed: Yes, that village exists too, yes, yes. Hmm.

[05:07]Host: Uncle Mihemed, now you said, what does your village do for a living?

[05:11]Apê Mihemed: Our living... the mountains were ruined, we have property/grass thank God.

[05:17]Apê Mihemed: And then... from the past to later, along this mountain, on this water, we had all sorts of livestock.

[05:23]Apê Mihemed: Meaning all were livestock owners, all were owners of wealth, all are orchard owners, all are land owners, all are olive owners.

[05:31]Apê Mihemed: All are happy, thank God. Everyone's situation is good.

[05:35]Host: No, do you have much flat land? Around you it is all mountains. And your property too, you said, your property fell on the North side.

[05:44]Apê Mihemed: Our property... is a place like that. Up to that hill.

[05:48]Apê Mihemed: Up to that hill is ours.

[05:51]Apê Mihemed: They call it the Plain of Dule. We have a land there, they call it the Plain of Dule.

[05:57]Apê Mihemed: The Plain of Dule. Oh... over there half of it is this way, half of it is that way [lost?]. Our property is on this side. On this side, uh on this side they put the border, they put the line. But uh on this side, it is on this side, it passes a place like that.

[06:09]Apê Mihemed: And the mountain too, half way to the top of the mountain, that is also our village's.

[06:13]Apê Mihemed: There is a castle there. There is a castle over there. A castle exists.

[06:18]Apê Mihemed: A fountain, there is water in it, water.

[13:26]Crowd: Thanks.

[13:45]Narrator: Villagers of the region occupy themselves with agriculture, from olive trees, fruits, vineyards, and the cultivation of vegetable fields.

[13:52]Narrator: Along with agriculture, villagers rely on animal husbandry as well, and this plays an important up and down [role] in the life of the village people.

[14:02]Narrator: Because of conflicts and opinions, and separation and obstacles, it caused a portion of the villagers to [leave] animal husbandry and bees.

[14:10]Narrator: And the abundance of springs became a good place for life and agriculture, therefore the people of the village settled there.

[14:33]Host: Dear viewers, in the village of Balyan, we wanted to highlight the border issue.

[14:39]Host: Balyan village became two sides. When this border was created here, Kurdistan was divided.

[14:45]Host: Balyan village was also divided by this.

[14:47]Host: We wanted to talk a little about the history of this border.

[14:50]Host: One person from this village joined us, and one from the North side [Turkey], who is a guest of this village.

[14:55]Host: We wanted to get to know them, and recall together a little about the history of the border.

[15:01]Host: Let's get to know each other first, hello to you.

[15:03]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Welcome.

[15:04]Host: Let us know you.

[15:05]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Ismet.

[15:06]Host: You are welcome (Upon my eyes).

[15:07]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): Tahsin.

[15:08]Host: You are welcome. Tahsin is from the North, and you are from the village of Balyan.

[15:13]Host: We said Balyan village, Balyan's history is with Kurdistan's history. When Kurdistan was divided, Balyan was also divided a bit.

[15:21]Speaker 2 (Ismet): It was divided.

[15:22]Host: Now this village, and the other village, now what is the name of the other village?

[15:25]Speaker 2 (Ismet): It is Juqa.

[15:27]Host: Was the name changed?

[15:28]Speaker 2 (Ismet): No, they said it is Juqa.

[15:29]Host: Are you from Juqa?

[15:30]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): I am from Mar-Juqa, opposite near Juqa.

[15:33]Host: Yes.

[15:33]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): You are from another village then.

[15:35]Speaker 2 (Ismet): It is near the village.

[15:36]Host: So tell us a little, how was this village separated like this, were this village and that other village one?

[15:42]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Well, the border, the boundary fell in between. Oh, before us, in the year '38, the barrier/wire was put up, that's all.

[15:50]Speaker 2 (Ismet): The barrier was put up, we know our elders said, "What is this?"

[15:53]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Meaning when the barrier was put up, they said we will do much damage, we will suffer much difficulty.

[15:58]Speaker 2 (Ismet): As they said, they also suffered the difficulty.

[16:00]Speaker 2 (Ismet): In that time. Yes.

[16:02]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Afterwards, we were young kids, we didn't know what it was. Truly we suffered difficulty.

[16:08]Speaker 2 (Ismet): In two ways, like when the barrier was put, they put a border line. Just a single line.

[16:15]Host: Was anything written on the barrier? What was written?

[16:18]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Only numbers were written on it.

[16:20]Host: Numbers?

[16:20]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Only numbers were on it. Yes, every stone marker had a number on it, stone, white stone.

[16:27]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Two ways, they put a line of wire around/there.

[16:33]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Meaning wire, they put a line of wire, and by every stone marker, they placed two large bombs/mines.

[16:40]Speaker 2 (Ismet): By every stone marker, they placed two large bombs/mines.

[16:44]Speaker 2 (Ismet): After this, in the time of the Sheik [King/Leader], from Egypt [or referring to a specific era], they stood up and placed three other rows of wire.

[16:54]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Three rows of wire, and they planted mines.

[16:57]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Mines were also planted in four rows.

[17:00]Host: So at that time, did no one from the village go? Did they not say what are you doing? Why are you planting this?

[17:05]Host: Meaning because your villages were then separated from each other.

[17:07]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Yes, separated. Our cemeteries were one, our graves are one.

[17:11]Speaker 2 (Ismet): When the government, the state let it be, they put up the border.

[17:14]Speaker 2 (Ismet): And they put mines too.

[17:16]Host: Meaning you didn't go at that time, any of your elders, the elders of the other village?

[17:19]Host: Meaning before, the village was one. Like the shrine was one, graves were one, your mukhtar [village head] was one, everything of yours was one.

[17:25]Speaker 2 (Ismet): It was all one.

[17:26]Host: It was one.

[17:27]Host: So how did you separate from each other, was there no difficulty in it?

[17:30]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Where did the difficulty go? The difficulties were many.

[17:32]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Just like for us, they pass through their land, our land remained on that pass/side.

[17:36]Speaker 2 (Ismet): Theirs remained on this pass/side.

[17:38]Speaker 2 (Ismet): The state, they took theirs [land] in possession, and they took ours in possession.

[17:42]Host: Now as said, you are from the other village, did you come as a guest to this village?

[17:45]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): I am a guest of the uncle, because of my marriage I came as a guest here.

[17:49]Host: You are the groom of this village too.

[17:50]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): Yes.

[17:51]Host: You are welcome.

[17:53]Host: So you said in that village, those properties of this village, that fell to the other side, fell to the North side, in whose hands do those lands remain now?

[18:00]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): Those lands now, they say, the state made them treasury property.

[18:04]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): The state made it treasury property, meaning its own property, state property.

[18:08]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): The state there, repeatedly rents them out to the people there, asking them to buy/rent it.

[18:13]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): The people go and rent it from the state.

[18:15]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): For example, it says if it's land for two years, three years, he pays money.

[18:19]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): He pays the finance office, and rents it from there.

[18:21]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): He rents it for two years, the land for example, the one opposite there, whoever got hold of it.

[18:25]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): The people settled, everyone, the one with him, the one who took it from before, exactly now they have gotten hold of it again.

[18:29]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): Meaning it continues constantly, he goes and rents it from the state.

[18:33]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): All these villages along the border, when they came.

[18:37]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): Meaning from before, women, meaning women were given here, taken from here.

[18:41]Speaker 3 (Tehsîn): Meaning before, these borders didn't exist. Our relatives saw it like this, the ones with great age.

[20:41]Man 1: But our land... Land, I mean we were one. Kurdistan is one.

[20:46]Man 1: We were one, now they placed a border [unclear] before us.

[20:49]Man 1: Ah, now our lands fell on that side, and yours fell on that side.

[20:53]Man 1: And we were separated from each other. When it became separate, we became "Balyan" [refugees/outsiders].

[20:56]Man 2: Look, here... meaning the understanding of the issue here is anger.

[21:01]Man 2: We went towards this place, the people gathered here, we went towards this village together.

[21:06]Man 2: We went to this place, a nation without a grave and without an anchor.

[21:09]Man 2: Well, these people say "we are democratic people."

[21:11]Man 2: Meaning they talk about democracy, [so] our military must be honorable, with character.

[21:40]Man 2: They broke their hearts [upset them] before their eyes, became [unclear] inside the village at home.

[21:43]Host: Maybe they are watching too, no?

[21:45]Man 2: Yeah exactly them. Their work, their work is over the village, meaning.

[21:48]Man 2: Meaning we must... if they talk about democracy, our soldiers shouldn't be like that. Such things shouldn't exist for them.

[21:54]Man 2: I myself went to Xola Esmed [place name], here, [unclear]...

[21:58]Man 2: Until up there, they pulled a weapon on us here.

[22:00]Man 2: We said "what if [we] turn back?"

[22:39]Narrator: In the year 1928, a border was placed between the North and the South.

[22:45]Narrator: And the village of Lower Balyan became part of the North.

[22:48]Narrator: It was given the name Berecûq.

[22:51]Narrator: And Upper Balyan came to be known as Balyana Tahnê.

[22:55]Narrator: And there are still relations/connections between both villages.

[22:59]Narrator: Despite the barbed wire that divides our country...

[23:03]Narrator: Many of the villagers' fields remained on the other side of the border after the border was placed.

[23:08]Narrator: And they are in the hands of the Turkish state.

[23:11]Narrator: Nearly 60 households and more than 1200 people live in the village.

[23:15]Narrator: And likewise, nearly 60 families from the village have become refugees in the center of Bilbil [or similar location].

[23:22]Narrator: Because of the obstacles on the border by the Turkish state...

[23:26]Narrator: Which used to kill the villagers' livestock and bomb their fields.

[23:30]Narrator: Many of the villagers have had their legs amputated due to mine explosions.

[23:37]Host: Yes, dear viewers, in the village of Balyan, the mothers are preparing food.

[23:43]Host: Now let's go over to the mother, let us learn about the mother's food together.

[23:49]Host: Hello to you.

[23:50]Dayika Elîf: Welcome. How have you been?

[23:51]Host: We came to get to know [you/the food].

[23:52]Dayika Elîf: May God give you comfort, you came, you went.

[23:54]Host: Be healthy. Mother, what is your name please?

[23:56]Dayika Elîf: It is Elîf.

[23:57]Host: You are welcome [on my eyes].

[24:00]Host: Najla?

[24:01]Najla: You are welcome.

[24:02]Host: Mother, you...

[24:03]Najla: My name is Sediqe.

[24:04]Host: You are welcome. Is she the daughter-in-law?

[24:06]Host: Mother, bless your hands.

[24:07]Dayika Elîf: May yours be blessed too.

[24:08]Host: Tell us about your food.

[24:10]Dayika Elîf: The food uh... we milk our sheep. We heat our milk.

[24:15]Host: What is the name of your food?

[24:16]Dayika Elîf: The name of our food is "kaşk", they call it "kaşk soup".

[24:19]Host: Is this an old food?

[24:20]Dayika Elîf: Yes, it is old.

[24:21]Host: This is the first time I am hearing it.

[24:22]Dayika Elîf: By God, it's very old, meaning if the throats/mouths miss the opportunity [to eat it], meaning they like it very much. We made it, however much we ate and licked [the bowl], no one...

[24:30]Dayika Elîf: There is no such thing out there.

[24:32]Host: Yes, do you watch the program with all the animals? Did anyone in the program make something specifically like this?

[24:37]Dayika Elîf: Ha, no one has made it.

[24:39]Host: So mother, this food, meaning...

[24:42]Host: Is it specifically from this village? Or in all this... region?

[24:44]Dayika Elîf: No, meaning... the tribe all... yes everyone makes it, but now no one makes it.

[24:48]Dayika Elîf: How do they not make it? Now no, they just make cheese and make strained yogurt (sûzme) and labneh and things like that.

[24:53]Host: So tell us about your food, how do you make it?

[24:56]Dayika Elîf: Well we... when... uh... like dry labneh, we put it in a bag...

[25:00]Dayika Elîf: Yes, yogurt. We put it in a bag, a cloth bag. Then when it's good, water is [drained] you know... meaning the curds and strained yogurt separate, we bring it back to strained yogurt.

[25:10]Dayika Elîf: You know sûzme is like lebne. And then we pound our wheat.

[25:13]Dayika Elîf: Wash our wheat clean, and like pounded wheat... [unclear] spread it on a tray... let it dry.

[25:20]Dayika Elîf: Sprinkle its salt on it. Your strained yogurt is cold and your wheat, mix your strained yogurt inside it.

[25:25]Dayika Elîf: So that until the salt enters, until the... liquid goes.

[25:28]Dayika Elîf: You put it back in your bag, you put it back on the wood/bench, [unclear].

[25:32]Dayika Elîf: You come this time too, you go and [add] mint water/juice. You go... water...

[25:37]Dayika Elîf: You make all the mint yourself, it is like mint (ne'na is Arabic for mint).

[25:40]Dayika Elîf: Only, not meaning the form of mint.

[25:42]Dayika Elîf: Then you put your cloth/liquid, you put your mint on it, then you make it like a lump/ball and put it.

[25:46]Dayika Elîf: Make it into a lump and put it.

[25:47]Host: Like this one you made now?

[25:48]Dayika Elîf: Yes, that's how we made it.

[25:49]Host: Let me see, I will look.

[25:58]Dayika Elîf: Meaning the very... the... meaning [unclear] no one, meaning thing... not meat...

[26:03]Dayika Elîf: You put it in the mouth, say "Kaşk Soup", there is no one [who doesn't like it].

[26:05]Dayika Elîf: You want to put tomatoes in it, you want to put red meat in it.

[26:07]Host: Weren't there foods like this before now...

[26:09]Dayika Elîf: Yes, yes. Now I put each one on the [unclear] on the jars.

[26:12]Host: Who will talk about this? Talk about it later.

[26:13]Dayika Elîf: Yes, if one wants to eat it selected/dry, if one wants to soften it, pour a handful of water on it.

[26:18]Dayika Elîf: And mix it, and soup, soup with your onions, your peppers...

[26:22]Dayika Elîf: Well... whatever thing you put in it, you put it in and then you eat.

[26:28]Host: So mother, where are they, were there foods back then?

[26:31]Dayika Elîf: You know, before there were many foods, the old ones.

[26:33]Host: What disappeared from them? Are there still some that are not made anymore?

[26:35]Dayika Elîf: By God now, meaning bread and oil/butter, people do it less now.

[26:39]Dayika Elîf: Bread and oil.

[26:40]Host: Before now we went to villages, they made bread and oil like in Meydan. We went to Meydan once, they made bread and oil for us.

[26:45]Dayika Elîf: It should be şilîk bread (wet/thin bread), meaning they do it less. Before, that was the people's food.

[26:48]Host: Are you talking about sweets?

[26:50]Dayika Elîf: No, I am talking about food. Dinner, like dinner.

[26:53]Dayika Elîf: Sour soup, gulik (a plant/herb), they do it less, no one does it.

[26:56]Host: Are there more?

[26:57]Dayika Elîf: Well, they hold weddings, they make viş vişko [sound/dish?], well... they do all their work.

[27:03]Dayika Elîf: They make doxrma (meat dish), uh... they make cemalî, these are old dinners.

[27:08]Dayika Elîf: Meaning doxrma is different, cemalî is different.

[27:10]Dayika Elîf: [Unclear word, maybe "we give/serve"].

[27:11]Dayika Elîf: They boil it, put their oil/butter in it and serve it for dinner.

[27:14]Host: Have these foods disappeared now?

[27:15]Dayika Elîf: Now no, no one makes them.

[27:17]Host: Have they disappeared?

[27:18]Dayika Elîf: Now very, meaning this... if you say "what is cemal", meaning... [unclear]... like that...

[27:22]Dayika Elîf: Meaning that person doesn't know.

[27:23]Dayika Elîf: For a part/section [of people]. Meaning the people don't know.

[27:26]Host: So mother, how many years has it been since they disappeared?

[27:28]Dayika Elîf: But... yes.

[27:30]Host: Did those foods disappear a long time ago?

[27:31]Dayika Elîf: Meaning for eight to ten years no one makes them.

[27:34]Dayika Elîf: Only those who go, fry in the pan, boil, and say "we made a meal".

[27:38]Dayika Elîf: There is nothing better than [that] meal.

[27:41]Dayika Elîf: Easy things. Sizzling [frying sounds] and so on.

[27:44]Host: It's true.

[27:45]Dayika Elîf: But otherwise who... meaning not everyone can handle the "right" of the meal [cook it properly].

[27:50]Dayika Elîf: There is one who can't, one whose condition doesn't allow, one who simply doesn't have it.

[27:55]Host: So mother, thank you too.

[27:57]Host: We will now ask... ask Mother Sediqe.

[28:00]Host: Hello Ms. Sediqe.

[28:01]Sediqe: Welcome.

[28:02]Host: Mother, tell us please, what have you prepared?

[28:05]Sediqe: Here we made kuftê (meatballs/dumplings). Here we... boiled yogurt soup. And here we fried them in oil.

[28:12]Sediqe: And here we brought yogurt and stirred it together.

[28:14]Host: Before you made it into soup?

[28:15]Sediqe: Yes, dew (yogurt drink/liquid yogurt). We made it into soup.

[28:17]Sediqe: We put these in the dish and make the soup good... put it in, just like that.

[28:21]Sediqe: Whatever each person likes, let them eat that.

[28:23]Host: So some are fried, some are boiled?

[28:25]Sediqe: Yes, these here are fried, and these here are boiled.

[28:28]Host: If you want, eat the boiled ones, if you want, eat the fried ones.

[28:31]Host: So mother, specifically the boiled ones, do only you make them, or do many make them?

[28:35]Sediqe: No, everyone makes them. The whole world/everyone makes them.

[28:37]Sediqe: Everyone makes them. In the old times everyone made them, now no one makes them.

[28:41]Host: No one in the village makes them?

[28:42]Sediqe: Why? The one who likes it makes it, the elderly from before. The one who doesn't like it doesn't make it.

[28:47]Sediqe: They fry them and make them along with soup.

[28:50]Sediqe: So those boiled in soup are good. Meaning for sickness, or if it doesn't agree with the stomach, if they can't eat the fried ones, they eat these.

[28:58]Host: Uh, so if someone's stomach hurts they can't eat [the fried ones]?

[29:00]Sediqe: Yes.

[29:01]Host: So now this is also dew (yogurt liquid)?

[29:02]Sediqe: Yes, this is dew.

[29:03]Host: What has been put into it?

[29:04]Sediqe: Here, we put rice in it.

[29:05]Sediqe: We put small pieces of meat in it, so its taste would be good.

[29:09]Host: So it is dew, rice, meat.

[29:12]Host: Does anything else go into it?

[29:13]Sediqe: Chickpeas.

[29:14]Host: Have you made kuftê?

[29:16]Sediqe: For kuftê we used meat too. Meat and onions.

[29:18]Sediqe: The fried ones, we put walnuts in them.

[29:20]Sediqe: The boiled ones, we only put meat and onions in them.

[29:24]Host: You didn't put walnuts in them?

[29:25]Sediqe: We didn't put walnuts now, meaning [because they are] the boiled ones.

[29:27]Sediqe: We made them differently [lit: a type].

[29:29]Host: Now what will you do?

[29:30]Sediqe: You do it like this, whoever liked [unclear], like this...

[29:33]Sediqe: Like this. Everyone puts enough for themselves.

[29:37]Sediqe: And the yogurt soup also like this.

[29:44]Sediqe: Whoever liked it, will eat it.

[29:46]Host: Let's talk a bit about the things of the past, because there was cloth, now it's gone, like mother Elîf showed us some things.

[29:52]Sediqe: Uh, what should I tell you, before they used to weave looms, spin spindles.

[29:56]Sediqe: They pulled hair/wool. Those things are all gone now.

[30:00]Speaker 1: Then they would make a racket, making a "tan tan" noise, like their business with the drums.

[30:04]Host: Really?

[30:06]Speaker 1: No, you were talking about something scarce, it's not left in two villages.

[30:10]Speaker 1: It was a strange generation, it's all gone now.

[30:13]Speaker 1: Now strange fashions/trends have emerged.

[30:15]Host: Yes, did no one teach them? Your daughters...

[30:17]Speaker 1: Why? Our generation knows, the young ones know a little bit.

[30:21]Host: Well, did you teach them, didn't they wonder about us?

[30:24]Speaker 1: They don't resolve their difficulties. Who bothers to make themselves comfortable?

[30:27]Speaker 1: Now it's ready-made, they eat canned food. Just ready-made.

[30:31]Host: If it's ready-made, have the men made themselves comfortable?

[30:33]Speaker 1: They lean lazily against this wall, making themselves comfortable.

[30:36]Speaker 1: That's how things are.

[30:37]Host: Nana, you mentioned two [wives] to me, you mentioned the husband.

[30:41]Host: Give me a nice ending, nana, is the food better with the husband or with the co-wife?

[30:45]Speaker 1: No, the husband's head [presence] is good.

[30:47]Host: And the co-wife's?

[30:48]Speaker 1: For me, bring it nicely, make it equal.

[30:50]Speaker 1: If you settle the husband, things become good. As for the co-wife, you soften the frostiness, the frost that comes before her.

[30:55]Speaker 1: That is the matter. The husband's presence is good.

[30:58]Host: Nana, were there fireplaces/chimneys in the past?

[31:00]Speaker 1: There are fireplaces. They open the face of the wall, it wasn't good so we stand before it.

[31:05]Speaker 1: That's how it is.

[31:07]Host: Nana, is the fireplace... [unclear] in the kitchen?

[31:10]Speaker 1: Why? There is a fireplace, there is one in the kitchen, and there is one built outside.

[31:13]Speaker 1: There is a fireplace. It opens a person's appetite.

[31:15]Speaker 1: Only our tea and coffee are on the "ghoze" (small stove/co-wife pun). Our dinner is entirely on the fire.

[31:19]Speaker 1: Oh, the bellies are full.

[31:21]Host: Better, that is.

[31:22]Speaker 1: Yes, it is good, its taste is good.

[31:24]Host: Well, health to your hands.

[31:25]Speaker 1: And you be healthy too.

[31:26]Host: Thanks to you too.

[31:27]Speaker 1: Mother, thanks to you too.

[31:29]Host: Be healthy, thanks.

[31:30]Speaker 1: Thanks to you too.

[31:45]Narrator: To the south of the village are the Reş and Osmani springs, known by the name Qere Hincar.

[31:52]Narrator: The water of the Black Spring (Kaniya Reş), in times past, was taken all the way to Hahuri.

[31:57]Narrator: The water of the spring flows with such a taste, and the village people irrigate their gardens with it.

[32:23]Narrator: Behind the village, meaning to the north, are the Geli Spring or Koçê Spring, and Sifkê Spring.

[32:29]Narrator: And the greenery of those surroundings grows from them.

[32:32]Narrator: The village houses have collected the water of both springs and distributed it to all the houses in the village via pipes.

[32:38]Narrator: It is worth mentioning that the water of these springs flows throughout all seasons.

[32:43]Narrator: The Bulix Spring is to the north of the village, and the people of Elkê village, meaning Lower Balyan, obtain drinking water from it.

[32:50]Narrator: The village of Elkê, meaning Lower Balyan, is nearly one kilometer to the east of the village.

[32:56]Narrator: And all the residents of the village are from the Balyan family.

[33:02]Host: Yes, dear viewers, the village of Balyan is also known for its springs.

[33:07]Host: There are many springs in this village. We were curious to visit this spring.

[33:12]Host: The Mukhtar, a person from this village, and I passed through. We thank them.

[33:17]Host: A little rain is also falling, let us give them a greeting. Hello to you.

[33:21]Mukhtar: Welcome. You are welcome, upon our heads and upon our eyes.

[33:29]Mukhtar: But thanks to you for coming to our village, for visiting us. You have come to our village.

[33:33]Host: We came, and with a bit of our luck, it is raining too.

[33:35]Mukhtar: Praise be to God, it is God's mercy, raining upon us again.

[33:38]Mukhtar: Both animals and humans look forward to this mercy intensely.

[33:41]Host: Yes, yes, yes.

[33:42]Mukhtar: Welcome.

[33:43]Host: May we know you too?

[33:44]Speaker 3: My name is Nuri, I am from the village of Balyan.

[34:00]Speaker 3: Our springs are many, but the abundant ones, the big ones, are five.

[34:05]Speaker 3: They are five.

[34:06]Host: Are they all in the village?

[34:07]Speaker 3: They are all in the village. Here, we call one Bulix Spring, next to the big plane tree.

[34:12]Speaker 3: Perhaps you saw it when you passed by.

[34:14]Speaker 3: It is a big tree, a plane tree, and the second one here they call Qere Pingar.

[34:19]Speaker 3: We have settled in front of its ravine.

[34:22]Speaker 3: They water the gardens with it.

[34:24]Speaker 3: And the third one is right here, the village comes and takes its water from here, it is very good water.

[34:28]Speaker 3: It is warm from the pillar/source [in winter].

[34:30]Speaker 3: But in the summer it is cool; if you put a watermelon in it, it cracks.

[34:34]Speaker 3: If we cool it, it cracks. That is its nature, like that.

[34:37]Speaker 3: Another spring is down below, they water gardens with that one too.

[34:41]Speaker 3: There is one behind the village too, it comes into the village.

[34:44]Speaker 3: All the needs of the village are fulfilled with it.

[34:46]Speaker 3: Our springs are many. And the small ones are very, very many, they can't be counted.

[34:51]Speaker 3: Meaning, Balyan is in the east of Mount Kurmenc (Kurd-Dagh).

[34:56]Speaker 3: It is hilly.

[34:57]Speaker 3: The hill is relatively high. The highest hill in the whole Afrin governorate region is this hill.

[35:04]Speaker 3: There is a hill that is a little bit smaller.

[35:05]Speaker 3: It is one thousand two hundred meters from sea level.

[35:09]Host: This mountain, famously in Mount Kurmenc, is this mountain high?

[35:12]Host: It is a high mountain.

[35:13]Host: Let's ask the Mukhtar some things too. Mukhtar, are there wells in the village?

[35:16]Mukhtar: There are wells.

[35:17]Host: How many wells do you have water from?

[35:19]Mukhtar: Wells, well, maybe three, four, four wells exist.

[35:22]Mukhtar: Along with the springs from far away, since there are springs, there are nearly ten wells, and the spring water never decreases, it's like before.

[35:28]Mukhtar: I mean, Glory to God, coming out of this mountain like this, one stays amazed.

[35:32]Mukhtar: Even if you look [dig] a little, there is water.

[35:34]Mukhtar: Here, this is for drinking, one drinks, and as for living, everyone has made their garden.

[35:40]Mukhtar: They plant in the garden, tomatoes, peppers, whatever.

[35:43]Host: Meaning they are without vegetable gardens?

[35:44]Mukhtar: Yes, vegetable gardens, yes.

[35:45]Mukhtar: Because all the houses have their vegetable gardens in front.

[35:47]Mukhtar: And for drinking, this special water, very meaningful, the village's dinner [water] comes, they call this House Spring (Kaniya Mala).

[35:53]Host: Meaning the clearest water comes for drinking is this?

[35:55]Mukhtar: It is this. No, the lower one is drunk too, but mostly since this is inside the village, everyone gathers here.

[36:00]Host: Did we see the House Spring?

[36:01]Mukhtar: House Spring.

[36:02]Host: It is near the village.

[36:03]Mukhtar: Women go out, with whispers and clogs/shoes, again they come and take it.

[36:06]Host: Yes, I saw too, I mean, when we passed by, we saw women taking water from it.

[36:10]Mukhtar: Yes, the things/people of the village take from it.

[36:13]Mukhtar: Now they have gone to the lower one too, houses have been built far away, many take from that one too again.

[36:17]Mukhtar: From that one too, some take drinking water, some irrigate their gardens with it.

[36:20]Mukhtar: That water is also healthy.

[36:21]Mukhtar: Because people came, said we saw this water, we [found it] healthy, like gasoline in the vials... [it cleans].

[36:27]Mukhtar: It's enough, this water belongs to all the families, it is not sold, nor have companies come now, companies took it, to bottle it.

[36:34]Host: So who came, from outside the village and said this?

[36:36]Mukhtar: From outside the village they came, experts were coming about... these stones, minerals, they were making [tests].

[36:41]Mukhtar: They used to say we come to drink this water, especially... they say specifically meaningful for tea and dinner.

[36:47]Mukhtar: It is extremely healthy.

[36:49]Mukhtar: In that [other] one, he said it's not potable, a sulfur taste comes from it too. We don't know what challenge is in it.

[36:55]Mukhtar: Everyone used to come and take from this water, specifically for tea outside.

[36:58]Mukhtar: And all were foreigners, I mean, not talking about [locals of] Syria...

[37:01]Host: They were experts.

[37:02]Mukhtar: They all used to come from this spring, taking that water below for tea outside.

[37:06]Host: Now Mukhtar, now like there are five springs?

[37:08]Host: Now these springs, are they just for these villagers, or does anyone else come to take water?

[37:11]Host: Other villages too, now you saw we are near the border, our other villages, there is Qirnê, next to you?

[37:15]Host: Do these villages also come to take water from it, or just your village?

[37:18]Mukhtar: Well, neighbors come and take it.

[37:20]Mukhtar: Now Mount Bilbil, Qirnê, these other villages don't have raw [natural spring] water.

[37:24]Mukhtar: Before there was government water, now that is gone too.

[37:26]Mukhtar: So they were loading/buying it by purchase, buying water tanks/cisterns, for drinking.

[37:31]Mukhtar: For other things [they buy], but for drinking they came here, to the mosque down below.

[37:35]Mukhtar: The water is abundant, it goes into the ravine.

[37:37]Mukhtar: They come and take it, welcome to them.

[37:39]Mukhtar: I mean regarding water, it's not a shame if we mention it, if you don't have water... by God, I won't drink a full cup.

[37:44]Host: It is the people's water.

[37:45]Mukhtar: People's water, God gave it to us, whoever enjoys it takes it, we don't count it [charge for it].

[37:49]Mukhtar: Bread and praise be to God, all are from sustenance, no one is deprived.

[37:52]Host: And from the old days you come and drink water from it?

[37:54]Mukhtar: From the old days we come to take water from here, this is the water for drinking.

[37:57]Mukhtar: That lower one specifically, we say cold water, the water becomes cold as it flows.

[38:00]Mukhtar: I mean it cracks a watermelon.

[38:02]Host: Were the threshing floors here in the past?

[38:03]Mukhtar: We saw our threshing floors here, on the threshing floor, our wheat... we used to wash it at this spring before.

[38:09]Mukhtar: Here we had made a special place/basin.

[38:11]Mukhtar: So come let's wash our wheat here.

[38:13]Mukhtar: I sift it, boil it, spread it here, there is a container, with this and water, we would pound it, then come to our homes.

[38:21]Host: So now they bring the means, the containers and things?

[38:23]Mukhtar: Ah now, all this work, there is a place for everything, everything exists.

[38:26]Mukhtar: [If] someone claims, 'no, there is no such and such spring'. That belongs to the whole village.

[38:32]Host: Yes.

[38:33]Host: Now let us greet, give a little [greeting] to the women too. Hello to you too.

[38:36]Host: Strength to you. May we know you too?

[38:38]Speaker 4: Welcome. Aisha Ramzi Ibrahim.

[38:41]Host: You're welcome (Upon my eyes).

[38:46]Speaker 7: My name is Nihal.

[38:47]Speaker 8: Nisrin.

[38:48]Host: You're welcome. Who shall we ask? Since, mother, because of seniority/older speech, let us ask you.

[38:52]Host: Now mother, have you always taken water from this spring?

[38:55]Speaker 5: We always come and take water from here.

[38:57]Host: Only women come, do men help for household help?

[38:59]Speaker 5: Women, women come, men help sometimes. Mostly if one is sick, they help.

[39:05]Host: And if the woman is sick?

[39:06]Speaker 5: If the woman is sick... even if she is not sick, the woman comes herself.

[39:09]Speaker 5: So we do our work with it, make our dinner with it, we drink, make our coffee and tea, we do our housework with it.

[39:16]Host: Thanks mother. Now it is raining a little too?

[39:18]Speaker 5: Yes, we take it again/anyway.

[39:19]Host: Are there no cisterns/tanks in the house?

[39:20]Speaker 5: There are. There are, but we drink this one, the weather/water is nice.

[39:23]Host: You got used to this water, you drink this water?

[39:25]Speaker 5: We drink this, it is good. Now they say rain water is also very good for tea, especially for tea.

[39:29]Speaker 5: Yes, well in this weather, a little rain water... that is God's mercy too, this one comes from the ground, it is cold, clean, this one is good.

[39:35]Host: I mean when it rains, you still come and drink water from it?

[39:38]Speaker 5: Yes, we still drink from it.

[39:40]Speaker 5: That is how it is.

[39:42]Host: Thanks to you.
