Lyrics & Translations:
(Greek)
Aπό ξένο τόπο κι απ' αλαργινό
ήρθ' ένα κορίτσι, φως μου, δεκαοχτώ χρονώ'.
from a foreign and distant place
there came a girl, my light, 12 years old
(Arabic)
غزالي غزالي طاب جرحي
طاب، والقمر سهرني
يا عيني بنص الليل وغاب
Ghazali ghazali tab jourhi tab,
wel qamar sahharni ya e'eini,
b-nus el leil w'ghab
My gazelle, my gazelle,
my wound has healed.
And the moon kept me awake,
but left me alone after night.
(Turkish)
Üsküdar’a Gider İken Bir Mendil Buldum,
Mendilimin İçine Lokum Doldurdum.
While going to Üsküdar, I found a handkerchief,
I put lokum (Turkish delight) into my handkerchief.

Buna göre melodi İngiliz İmparatorluğundaki İskoç Tümeninin resmi marşıydı. Kırım savaşı (1853-56) döneminde İstanbul'a gelip Selimiye Kışlasına yerleşen İskoç birliklerinin gayda takımı bandosu aracılığıyla Üsküdar semtinde yaygınlaşmış, Türkçe sözler yazılmıştı.
Great collab! Love from Bangladesh. Beloved poet of our country, Kazi Nazrul Islam was greatly influenced by this beautiful tune.
Thanks for checking it out ☺️
That was cool, three worlds meet in Albania.
Glad you enjoyed it ☺️
I appreciate your interpretations, very beautiful showcase of the multicultural extend and reach of the Ottoman Empire's music, and the Europe-Asia border it crossed. Music unites all, much love! Subbed and liked :D
Yes exactly! The ottoman empire was harmful in some ways but also very useful to unite so many diverse regions through food and music 🎵
Thank you for this lovely comment ☺️
I am writing this comment from Florida state and I see that you are in turkey, good luck brother. You are good musician who is singing and playing from deep heart.
Thank you! Currently in Macedonia but yes, I love Turkey :)
Hello I'm in Florida now! 😆
boney M used this tune.....
Τι όμορφη εκτέλεση !! Μπράβο παιδιά ❤
σε ευχαριστώ πάρα πολύ!!!
Awesome! It’s incredible how Arabic and Middle Eastern music influenced Turkish, Greek, Italian and Spanish music. That’s because the Arab invaders, like the Ottomans adopted the cultures of the lands and Peoples they conquered all the way from the Arabian peninsula to the Western Mediterranean ( Spain, Portugal, Sicily, Malta, North Africa and they were as far as Southwest of China, Indonesia etc..
Thanks for appreciating the complexity and depth of the music 🎶
It's the other way around Arab music is based on Greek (Byzantine) musical theory, which the Ottomans also later adopted.
That’s false lmfao, greco-Anatolian music pretty much influenced everything from balkans to west Asia to India.
I’m Iranian, and trust me Persians also think they invented everything
@mikeghapanchi88 do you by chance know the Persian version of this song? I can't find it but I know it exists!
@@Zarathushtra-qm1kf do your research! It’s the other way around Byzantium took a lot from the Near East, mainly Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt. My family is partly Greek and I grew up to think like you until I got to join Oxford and meet Historians, some of them Greeks who taught me otherwise and that doesn’t stop with music and food, but science and architecture, just like our so called gothic cathedrals! You would be utterly shocked to learn the French, Italian, German, Norwegian, Spanish etc… cathedrals we’re taken from the Levant ( Syria, Lebanon etc..) where they built the first examples of cathedral churches that later were copied by the Crusaders. The thing is we’re so ethnocentric and we think that the Greeks and Romans actually invented everything! We took the bulk of our knowledge from the Babylonians, the Sumerians, the Phoenicians ( starting with the very ALPHABET we use) or even the name or birth of our very continent Europa wasn’t even Greek or Anatolias or Persian, it was Phoenician or from Phoenicia( Modern day Lebanon). We’re poorly educated about our own roots and history.
This is wonderful in every way.
Thank you for this lovely comment 💜💚
Now it's one thing to listen to this song in one language as I've always done, which is enough for it to be one of my favorites anyway, but it's a whole new experience listening to it in multiple languages. It's wonderful sharing folk songs with other cultures. Nice!
Wow, thank you so much for this beautiful comment! We appreciate you watching our video and supporting our music :)
You guys did a wonderful job ... Peace
Thank you for watching 🤗
Fun fact: Üsküdar is actually Scutari which is a Latin word itself. Far as I know there's a city named Scutari in Albania too.
Greetings from Üsküdar.
Interesting history fact, thank you for sharing :)
Uskudar or Skoutari is the ancient Chrysopolis, a large suburb of Constantinople in which several thousand Greeks lived and for which the famous song was written that is heard as far as Egypt and is considered one of the most famous of the Sephardic tradition of the eastern Mediterranean.
In Egypt it is found as "Fel S hara" or "Ya Banat Iskandaria". Iskenderia is Alexandria. There is a connection, since in Turkish Iskender is Alexander. In our own language, the melody is sung in various parts of Greece as "From a foreign land and from a long time ago" and is considered one of the most well-known songs of the eastern shores.
In 1960, even Markos Vamvakaris included it in his repertoire, recording it with Kaiti Grey. In the 1950s, according to Orson Welles, "the most exciting woman in the world", Eartha Keith, an actress and singer of the old Cabaret style, made it known across the Atlantic, while its melody reached her heart American jazz with performances like that of the famous flautist Herbie Mann, but also the Far East with the electric sound of the famous Japanese guitarist Takechi Terauchi.
Of the special melodies that went around the world with the great power of musical universality, giving, at the same time, their strong geographical mark
Great info, thanks!
Do you have Albanian version of this song ???
Incredible performance. Also this song seems to have a version in every language damn. :)
Thank you! Yes I'm trying to find the name of the Persian version currently 😂
Good day!
Well, I was going to make a new comment but. It is not utterly unrelated to this video so.
I'm curious if you know what type of Oud ibrahim al attar uses?@@DandelionLakewood
Good question, I think that was a pretty cheap Egyptian oud, I believe he upgraded recently
Ah. Well, I like the traditional Oud sound and so I was going to get one. I planned on getting an Iraqi Oud for a starter but I was shocked to hear how it sounded, in most youtube videos around it almost sounded like a guitar :(. So I was considering buying something with the more traditional sound like his has. Thanks!@@DandelionLakewood
@@DandelionLakewood Such A beautiful song and performance. There is also a version in Hebrew.
That's just beautiful you guys. I know that song. Very touching. I dig the location too, btw.
