Hi Jeff, Whenever I used to transcribe Assyrian songs, I used to do the same like you have done here. However I would hear the song I would write it, and then try to memorize it. So I can't do a better job transcribing the song. Well done. :) When I was about 13 I was in love with a singer named Amanuel Bet YOnan. He has this one Omtanaya song that I used to sing all the time. It starts like..... Ya awated shmaya ramaa qamudeetooo kilyee tama etc etc...khoshon klemooon something matwatan ptukhon kuleeee qorawatan aqemounon brot khayutan, lewakh khedye be something lewakh khedye braributa...etc My dad used to laugh at me when hearing me sing that song. I loved the song, but I messed up all the words! Hey, at least I try... By the way, it's through music that I learned to speak Assyrian, and also learned all three dialects, as can anyone who wants to learn. Although I still unfortunately do not speak any one dialect perfectly, I can sing in Alqoshi, Suryoyo, and Assyrian. So here is my translation. Ah hay la yao-nee This is my dove yao-neeta khlee-ta beautifull dove Ah hay la yao-nee khay-yee This is my dove, my life qa-too min meeta For which I will die x2 (I'm totally guessing on the spelling here... I've got my headphones on and I'm going to try and transcribe it phonetically!) Khizya lichnee te-va He saw....this part I don't know Alaynit meeya On the top of the water? Eye of the Water?? Qorbinney Ana kisla I tried to get closer to her Raban maseyyah Because I was thirsty??? Mo-tee-lee oshimmakh What is your name Ya atoureyah Assyrian lady? Oh assyrian? Moot-chip-la reesho merra She turned her head and said Ah ninnyoneeyah I am yoniya (name meaning dove) Yao-nee atintaneelee My dove tell me Moodeewat atee What are you?. Makh shimsha bizrakeva Like the sun you are shining chod youm youl patee Everyday on my face. x2 Khagzeyto ga shepta How she looks at me??? Goo den aynatee With those eyes? Moodelakh chim jeldoota How fast you showed me??? o khobbakh khat-ee Your love for me?? x2 Yao-nee atintaneelee My dove tell me Moodeewat atee What are you? Makh shimsha bizrakeva Like the sun shining chod youm youl patee everyday on my face x2 Khagzeyto ga shepta How she looks and looks? Goo den aynatee With those eyes Moodelakh chim jeldoota How fast she showed me o khobbakh khat-ee Your love for me x2 --------------------- |
