This a capella song fills me with energy, I found gypsy culture quite interesting, and their music is indeed something special, gypsy jazz and flamenco came from it, it is no coincidence. I'm Mexican 3rd generation of Spanish and French immigrants, still I feel this so close.
You are a Roma or gypsy,cingene,gitano, you should proude of being of it. I love gypsy music, great music mkaes my blood move faste and make me feel in love amorous.
I am a native of Rajasthan...My ancesters have been living there since time immemorial...these Gypsies are NOT low casts..they are the loyal souldiers of MAHARANA PRATAP who deciced to not to make a home since their Maharana died fighiting Akabar.......rarest of the rarest story of loyalitiy in the world.......Very few people in todays world know it...
I MANAGED TO RECORD ABOUT HALF OF THIS VIDEO ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO.I LOVE IT SO MUCH I PLAY IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN.I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO GET THE WHOLE MOVIE,AND NOW I CAN SEE IT ALL.I WOULD LOVE TO RECORD THE LOT BUT DONT KNOW TO.IM 70 NOW AND NOT TOO BRIGHT..CAN ANYONE HELP.REGARDS
My parents tapped this movie off of PBS and as a three year old I would watch it every single day. I am so glad this was such an important part of my childhood; not only am I able to correct stupid stereotypes about gypies, but also I learned so much about the world at a young age. Plus, I know by heart some very interesting songs from India, Egypt, Turkey, Romania, Hungary, Germany, France, and Spain! (am I forgetting any?)
The song in the beginning reminds me of my childhood in the Rajasthan desert. The song is about one's mother.
It says that my mother was a sister of seven brothers (that is considered something of great fortune that a woman has seven brothers as a brother is considered a great protector in Rajasthani culture). he song goes on to say how she was married with great hopes.
hay i am an indian basically frm haryana but i dont' understand a word hez saying in the song? i always thought that haryanvi and rajasthani has a lot of similarities.......

Me encanta este ducumentale musical , y creo que es un film muy importante en la tema de etnomusicologia. Puedo recomendar hay otras peliculas sobre los gitanos si quieres usted. Vivo en EEUU y en Mexcio. En Mexico, hay unos cines ambulantes les llaman los hungaros. No son hungaros, pero son pacere gitanaos por su vida en el camino, por eso les dicen hungaros... medio raor, verdad? atte. HM

nobody said YOU are indian... this just the history of origins..gypsies were a low caste of musicians belonging to the Rajasthan area of India, but that was long, long ago, even if gypsies communities sstill exists there; since then, Rom people has been spread all over the world, and are no indians anymore.
My family are English Romanies and their full dna profile was taken and even though we know of English, Irish and Jewish admixture in our blood - our blood was still 1/4 Indian and approx. 1/3 Eastern European. So it seems to bear out. We must have had very pure Romani blood. I'm proud of our exotic heritage personally.
@jessrlee88 . I am as English as bread & butter, started playing rock guitar at 11 but flamenco was creeping into my style. All things flamenco started influencing me but did'nt think too much about it thinking it was just what I like. Before mum died she told me we come from Spanish gipsys & showed me photos of my family I had never met. The women all are so beautiful & proud. Sometimes I wonder what or who is influencing me. A deep & strong influence thats for sure.
@ItsSnickelsBetch Check wikipedia about Romani people. All genetic and linguistic evidence seems to suggest to their migration from India over 1000 years ago.
Regardless, theirs is a great story of the triumph of human spirit over immense suffering & persecution.
Yes u. r. right the Roma are not from India.....it is only some European theory.which is political bullish nothing more ...but did you know that this people on the video r the Huns= Scythian s????
Our DNA reveals we came from India and our language comes from Sanskrit. Rom is simply Sanskrit for man. Along our journeys we have absorbed culture and blood from the many places and given back music and dance like Flamenco. In the cold sun of Europe our skin has lightened. Gypsy's in India have been changed by time but are closer to our common ancestors than we are. When I see Indian Gypsy's I see the origin of our culture and feel pride that we always sang and danced.
The Gypsies in Europe intermarried with the locals and that's why many (if not most) of them they look more European - just like how there was intermarriage between the Middle Eastern Jews and Europeans.
no its proven through the romany language, the same language only found in modern north india! also geneticall romany people are indian decent, they left india about a thousand yrs ago!
is in north india i know gypsyan ..
