The photography shown in this video is truly a lost world, mostly unseen by other cultures. It is so surprising that these images have survived such tumult.
Dle Yaman : I don’t know how I found this song but once I did I realized i loved it. It is said that it was originally about two lovers who never sealed their love for each other. However, over the years it has come to symbolize Armenia’s separation from much of its historic land in Eastern Turkey. It is also used as background music in many YouTube music videos about the Armenian Genocide.
The Armenian Genocide was the systematic mass murder and ethnic cleansing of around 1 million ethnic Armenians from Asia Minor and adjoining regions by the Ottoman Empire, modern day Turkey. in 1915. Turkey still denies that the ethnic cleansing and deportation of Armenians was a genocide or wrongful act.
Lyrics
Dle Yaman (Oh my Heart)
Dle yaman,
The wind has come like a fire,
Oh, dle yaman,
I reached water, half of the sea,
Yaman, yaman
Dle yaman,
Our houses face each other,
Oh, dle yaman,
We loved each outher without knowing,
Yaman, yaman
Dle yaman,
The sun has touched Mount Massis,
Oh dle yaman,
I am yearning for my love,
Yaman, yaman, yar
Dle yaman,
The wind has come like a fire,
Oh, dle yaman,
Beloved, brought me water, half of the sea,
Yaman, yaman
Dle yaman,
The wind has come like a fire,
Oh, dle yaman,
Beloved, brought me water, half of the sea,
Yaman, yaman
