David McCallum Reads The Damned Thing by Ambrose Bierce
I do not own the rights to this reading of Ambrose Bierce's "The Damned Thing" read by the late David McCallum. I'm uploading it because it once was on RUclips but disappeared. McCallum's voice is pleasing, and he varies it with the speakers in the story to provide different "voices". He does an excellent job with this recording.

Psalm 121 sung in Syriac, western dialect
Просмотров 186Год назад
I do not own the rights to this video. I post it for the enjoyment of those who know Syriac. The singer in this video is singing Ps 121(120) using the western Syrian pronunciation (i.e., all original long “ah’s” shifted to “oh”). Here is the text of what she’s singing in Syriac: ܐܰܪܺܝܡ ܥܰܝ̈ܢܰܝ ܠܛܽܘܪܳܐ. ܐܰܝܡܶܟܳܐ ܢܺܐܬܶܐ ܡܥܰܕܪܳܢܝ̱. 2 ܥܽܘܕܪܳܢܝ̱ ܡܶܢ ܩܕܳܡ ܡܳܪܝܳܐ ܗܰܘ ܕܰܥܒܰܕ ܫܡܰܝܳܐ ܘܰܐܪܥܳܐ. 3 ܠܳܐ ܢܶܬܶܠ...

Ezra Pound's poem about Jesus, read by the Scottish-American folk singer Alan MacLeod (recording date uncertain). Pound wrote the poem in a faux Scottish accent, which called for a Scotsman to read it. Here is the text of the poem: Ballad of the Goodly Fere, by Ezra Pound Simon Zelotes speaking after the Crucifixion. Ha' we lost the goodliest fere* o' all *(Fere=Mate, Companion) For the priests...
Cellist plays Amazing Grace from lowest to highest notes possible on her instrument. San Francisco
Просмотров 352 года назад
I recorded this cellist aboard the ferry boat Eureka at the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park (aka, "Hyde St Pier"), at the Sea Music Festival in Aug 2012. This performer was just one of many 'buskers' who brought their instruments and took available opportunities to play. I do not know her name.
Ain Gedi waterfall, Israel, Jan 2012
Просмотров 172 года назад
This short video shows the major water fall at Ain Gedi in Israel. The stream is not large, but in the desert it's very welcome. This is known as David's Waterfall because King David of ancient Israel hid here for some time while being persued by Saul (I Sam 23:29). Ain Gedi is also mentioned in the Song of Songs (aka Song of Solomon) 1:14.

Second video of the Assyrian royal lion hunt friezes in the British Museum, London. Archaeologists did leave numerous friezes like this, some with inscriptions, in situ in Nineveh which became an archaeological park. But ISIS destroyed them.

Yah Ribbon Alam Aramaic Jewish Song

I do not own the rights to this video. I post it for those interested in Jewish liturgical poetry and in the Aramaic language.

      No, I haven't. I'm unfamiliar with the Shabbat hymns of Arizal but I'll research them. I downloaded this video from RUclips over 10 years ago, and then it disappeared from YT, so I uploaded it again.

    Ballad of the Goodly Fere, by Ezra Pound Simon Zelotes speaking after the Crucifixion. (Fere=Mate, Companion) Ha' we lost the goodliest fere o' all For the priests and the gallows tree? Aye lover he was of brawny men, O' ships and the open sea. When they came wi' a host to take Our Man His smile was good to see, "First let these go!" quo' our Goodly Fere, "Or I'll see ye damned," says he. Aye he sent us out through the crossed high spears And the scorn of his laugh rang free, "Why took ye not me when I walked about Alone in the town?" says he. Oh we drank his "Hale" in the good red wine When we last made company, No capon priest was the Goodly Fere But a man o' men was he. I ha' seen him drive a hundred men Wi' a bundle o' cords swung free, That they took the high and holy house For their pawn and treasury. They'll no' get him a' in a book I think Though they write it cunningly; No mouse of the scrolls was the Goodly Fere But aye loved the open sea. If they think they ha' snared our Goodly Fere They are fools to the last degree. "I'll go to the feast," quo' our Goodly Fere, "Though I go to the gallows tree." "Ye ha' seen me heal the lame and blind, And wake the dead," says he, "Ye shall see one thing to master all: 'Tis how a brave man dies on the tree." A son of God was the Goodly Fere That bade us his brothers be. I ha' seen him cow a thousand men. I have seen him upon the tree. He cried no cry when they drave the nails And the blood gushed hot and free, The hounds of the crimson sky gave tongue But never a cry cried he. I ha' seen him cow a thousand men On the hills o' Galilee, They whined as he walked out calm between, Wi' his eyes like the grey o' the sea, Like the sea that brooks no voyaging With the winds unleashed and free, Like the sea that he cowed at Genseret Wi' twey words spoke' suddently. A master of men was the Goodly Fere, A mate of the wind and sea, If they think they ha' slain our Goodly Fere They are fools eternally. I ha' seen him eat o' the honey-comb Sin' they nailed him to the tree.
