If there was no love in the world,
Wouldn’t open the rose covered with dew
And the eyes would not open with a ray of sunshine,
If there was no love in the world.
Ah this heart that knows love,
Knows sweet hope,
Knows the light of a thousand stars
Come, come with me, I love your step,
Come, come with me, I love your wonderful words.
Loved baby,
Insulted child,
Child,
Black-haired baby,
Dear baby!
Introduction by Ilda Simonian before the concert Gurdjieff meets Hewar during Holland Festival 2018.
Mount Alakiaz is shrouded in clouds,
Vay le, le, le…
Rain has soaked the ground.
Ah, my dear, sweet mother.
Rain has soaked the ground.
Vay le,le, le,le..
But the sun has dried it out.
Ah, dear sweet mother.
In front of our door threre is an incense tree
My dear beloved.
In front of your door there is one too;
My dear beloved.
The tree bears its fruit,
My dear beloved.
A history of falling and rising again – from the Middle Ages to after the disintegration of the Ottoman empire and the Armenian genocide around 1915 and until today. For choirs wanting to expand the unique Armenian Music repertoire.
