Was this recorded during Perlman's trip to Krakow? Wonderful... my childhood comes to me..

His face is priceless, :-)

But as always, his playing is outstanding

[MrImnus]

Very beautiful. Thanks for the song ! Hope someday Basarabia will be again reunited with it's mother, Romania. God bless, Shalom brother ! Jewish musicians, are one of the best in the world in my opinion.

I've heard so many songs

But I've tired of them all.

One song alone has stayed with me

And I can't forget it

Tirl, tirl, tirl, tirl

Plays the shpeherd on his flute

It is the song of Bessarabia,

Of the shepherd and his sorrow

[Jaherlich]

@steinchik

is that a free translation? :-)

if it is or not, great little poem 

[steinchik]

Once there was a young shepherd A child among children Grazing his father's Goats lambs sheep and cows The young shepherd Lost a young sheep Vaulyu, he wept, he lamented. My beloved Bessarabia Land of joy and land of sorrow, When I remember your valleys, How I weep and I mourn
