Izabel, move on.. everyone in Anatolia went through hard time. my father's grand parents were Armenian from D.Bakir and i never got to see their picture because they were gone, disappeared. i do not hate anybody, because kurds, armenians and all died. Ask to Americans, Canadiens and British Why? not to Turks. Ask westerners see what they say?
I'm sorry but after what the Turks did to the Armenians, Greeks and Assyrians and what they tried to do to the Arabs, how can you expect me to forgive
We must not dwell on such issues such as the Armenian Genocide or the Holocaust, but instead keep an eye on Turkey to make sure that they don't do something or encourage hate to other nations ever again!
If it seem like they're trying to influence other nations, run and get help immediately! That goes for Iran and Israel as well!
@mamc1986 Arabs?? Arabs beheaded Turkish soldiers in theirs sleeps in Damascus. Mustafa Kemal would die if he would not leave a night earlier. We fought for freedom together with Turks, Kurds, Greeks and Armenians, Cherkess together. And we will do it again against anyone who comes to Anatolia again. This is for sure. Historians must take care of the history so we know who hides daggers beneath their pants. We do hide nothing. Anatolians never lie. Armenians are brother if they come back to land
Isabel Bayrakdarian, I am so very proud of you for what you have brought to our old and wonderful culture. I love your songs and your wonderful vigor. I am also a singer and a dramatic soprano though I started later in life. I mentioned at another youtube site that my professor's prof. was Pavarotti's professor. Seervart Kevorkian Kerb'ian.
En ce premier jour de l'année 2011, je viens sur cette video comme on va sur un memorial. Bayrakdarian, c'est l'arménienne dans toute sa splendeur.
Dans une grande proportion de ses actes, de ses déclarations, je reconnais ma soeur d'arménité/ Isabel, yes kez siroum em, et toutes les autres personnes qui porteraient aussi bien les vraies valeurs de la Grande Culture Arménienne qui avec une Arménie corrompue et devenue pire que la Sicile, vit l'un de ses pires moments.
Armenians are very old nationality who survived horrible masscres and tortures. Because of the Armenian Genocide, the Armenians are 8-10 millions all around the world, rather than 50 millions if the Genocide didn't happen from 1915-1923. Thus more than 1.5 millions were barbarically killed. The remnants of the orphans who survived the Genocide are scattered all over the world. One of them is myself, the daughter of a survivor who was orphaned in 1915. For 95 years we haven't had closure yet.
What a setting Arrarat , an ancient temple. If only americans had a unifying sprit like the Armenians . We would rule the world. Barev Hingar to all Armenians.
angelic voice great song great performance - this particular rendition with the haunting duduk ensemble absolute ARMENIAN magic. Isabel sounds as great as when I heard her live in London. Pity about the annoying and completely out of place eastern/western Armenian "debate". Also, Isabel please note, Zvartnots is NOT a pagan temple or as old as you think by Armenian standards (i.e. pre Christian). It's in fact a Christian temple from, I think from, 7th century.
@bagraduni I must tell you that Zvartnots is indeed a pagan temple,there is also an ancient winery and a sun clock and in the area, everyone knows it's pagan temple everything indicates that.It was just rebuilt during christian times,and then became ruined during the earthquake ....
@zarmanazan of course, no one has the right to tell that the western armenian is wrong, there are a lot of foreign words in eastern armenian, but western has not many derivations, we should keep it, it is a great language and we should be proud of those armenians that have kept it and speek now in diaspora, this way they have armenian identity with them, think armenian, speak armenian. that's great. Bravo to all of them :)
The ruins of Zvartnots are of an Armenian church built during the 7th century, not a pagan temple (although excavations do indicate that it may have been built on the platform of one).
@zarmanazan What bothers me most is people writing the way they speak in official places like TV, Books, Papers Ads.--- I've been studying Armenian 10 years in the school and then 2 years in the university, I've read more books than most of people around. I think I've deserved the right to voice my opinion on my monther language and also have an opinion of what's right and what's wrong. :)
@zarmanazan And Again I don't want anybody taking this personally. My 'native' Armenian is Eastern Armenian. My spoken native is "Yerevani" accent. If you want to hear proper Eastern Armenian its on national television news. I am sure you will notice the difference between that and what's spoken on the streets. So you can say and speak all you want but claiming that yours is correct is just wrong.
@zarmanazan It's not about a superior assumption. It's just assuming the Mr Mesrop would put the letters in the same order according to their phonetics. So Lets say the name. Take the name Պետրոս (lets say it's your name). An average Easter Armenian speaker will say "Petros". so if you want your name pronoucned Bedros write it Բեդրոս.
@zarmanazan Additinally as aperson who speaks 5 languages fluently and has general understanding of couple of more let me tell you Western Armenian that you here nowdays is almost like a literal translation of Arabic. As far as it goes to phonetics- check out my previous comment. After saying this all I won't deny that I really like how western armenian sounds (and I can speak it if needed)
@zarmanazan Example: Check out Greek, Arabic, Russian, English.. the 4/5th letter is 'D' so is in Armenian. Unless Mesrop was high on something I reallty don't see why would the frourth letter of Armenian arlphabet phonetically be pronounced anything but D.
This is not an arrogant statement. I go based on correct Armenian spelling of the name! if you start talking about the differences of pronunciations of western and eastern Armenian I will remind you... in almost ALL languages the first letters of the alphabet are A B G D. just because westerners pronounce those Armenian letters P' Q' T' it doesn't mean that's the correct pronunciation. It's their DIALECT. When the Armenian letters where being made they were made to match the actual sounds.
dle yaman or LE LE YAMAN what ever it is ,it makes me cry each time i listen to it ...it makes me to be proud of being ARMENIAN and it helps me to save IT.
Arrogance + ignorance are your first and second names. it's a sign of arrogance/ignorance to attack someone's personality in a dispute over smth like this.
You felt it necessary to assault our senses with your ignorant declarative, hyper inflated juvenile emotional outburst of anger at this womans impeccable conformance to Gomidass original transcript, a subject you clearly know nothing about and youre telling me Im the one attacking you? I called you on your juvenile outburst thats all- Ill add lack of self awareness to your traits.
BostomEM- Ill add arrogance to your ignorance. Again the ORIGINAL ARMENIAN TRANSCRIPT of the lullaby states unequivocally Lele NOT Dele.
Whether or not the Turks use it is beside the point. That does not bolster your claim. It would not be the first time that theyve appropriate Armenian expressions or culture for that matter. I stand by what I said.
Elegant decor..nice and very sweat voice..her voice make me good and healthy.she is a relative of my father..thank you.nice mission for future generation.
Armenian: Dle Yaman, Mer tun, Dzer tun dimac, dimac Dle Yaman, Heriq anes achqov imac Yaman Yaman Yar Dle Yaman, Heriq anes achoqov imac Yaman Yman Yar Dle Yaman, Arev dipav Masis sarin, Dle Yaman, Karot mnaci es im yarin, Yaman Yaman Yar Dle Yaman, Karot mnaci es im yarin, Yaman Yaman Yar
The instruments are called duduks. This song pierces the very fibres of my soul. How much pain and suffering of this proud and ancient nation can you hear in her amazing voice.
I saw you singing this on TV and my heart wept. The suffering is so evident in that beautiful aria and your perfect voice makes it come alive for me. Your voice is so beautiful it makes me feel at peace. May God bless you and your husband (to be) and to that beautiful aria sung from your soul.
Armanıans are allways our brothers,ı am kurdısh,we lıved together many many ceuntrys,also we related with armenians,ı wish every human being lives together in brotherhood,death to emperialism
Anlamını bilmiyorum.Ama emperyalizmin nice zaman oyununa gelmis Anadolu halkının acılarını dile getiriyor besbelli.Bu oyunlara hala geliyoruz..Bu tatlı yaslı melodileri hep birlikte duyugulanarak dinliyelim..Bayrakdaryan gibi Knar da dinlenmeli..
The man that wrote this song is Komitas Vardapet and his real name is Sogomon Gevorki Sogomonyan. He was one of the most wonderful artists that was raised in Anatolia.
Zvartnots is a church, built outside the traditional Armenian archetecture of churches....after it was built, it was decided to maintain the unique Armenian architecture of building churches, where the foundation is based on cross.
Yes yeghel em Zvartnotsum praktikayi zhamanak,u ayntegh mer tvarkutyunits arajva shinutyunner kan,ginu gortsaran,arevi zhamatsuyts...Yes hamozvats em vor da hetanosakan tachar e.
boys hear the music..it doesnt have a country ... did you all chosen your countries by ur selves that you are all proad of your place of birth?? be proad of what you have gain in your life time by your selves... and here the music!!!!
nice duduk ! very nice voice, it reflects the sorrow for not only the Armenians but maybe for the Turks in that region. I hope to see more musicians of both nations performing together.
There is a magical and mysterious beauty in this singing accompanied by the music instruments. The ancient stonework compliments the beauty of the music.
This is the best version of Dle Yaman I have heard. Her voice is angelic, and hearing this song makes me tear up. It expresses our grief, the grief that lays deep within every passionate Armenian.
Tzaint ansbar, amenain haiots mshaguiti tesban. Hazar park Asdudzo Isabele mern e. Geankis amenalav badahadz tebke hai azkin badganiln e. Abris aasla.
Ok I am from turkey..my two cents..She cant change dile yaman to lele yaman..very wrong..where did she get the idea from??i dont understand it..and unfortunately musicwise it is not done very well..Kardes Turkuler (which means Brother Songs) from turkey sings this song really good.. Dont get me wrong guys..I really love this song...
While I surely do not know about the original transcript as well as you, maybe it would be of interest that "del" is not a Turkish, but Persian word simply meaning "the heart" (and the -e is a nominative marker). In connection with the expression "Yaman" it makes proper sense, I would say. Anyway, just my two cents ;-)
such passionate singing, with improper words? WHY?
Ms. Isabel B. Simply WHY ?
And the DVD prints on the screen Le Le !!! Why ?
Dont you know that such a song like this it Touches many people & it means a great Heart Ach since it relates to MILLIONS of Genocide Survivors & their Familes?
I am stuned by your Quality work & same time Puzzled with this disturbing change.
also if you are an opera singer stick to opera not joghovertagan like gomidas! or train your voice so it actualy suits this kind of music !
too many Armenian singers are changing the true authentic style.. a voice is better elaborated when it sings a style it suits.
sorry isabel bayrakdarian.. No LELE yaman for you !
BTW there is a reason it is called De Le Yaman research it you will know what it really means its not just a song.. it has a meaning tooo for your information
Its time to give the Armenians, Assyrians and Greeks a voice! Time to reconise the Armenian Genocide, like the grown-ups that we are.
No more running away like scared little children!

Anlamını bilmiyorum.Ama emperyalizmin nice zaman oyununa gelmis Anadolu halkının acılarını dile getiriyor besbelli.Bu oyunlara hala geliyoruz..Bu tatlı yaslı melodileri hep birlikte duyugulanarak dinliyelim..Bayrakdaryan gibi Knar da dinlenmeli..

What a magnificent, haunting other-worldly sound! One doesn't need to understand the words to understand what is being sung and played.
May God bless Armenia and all her people!

The man that wrote this song is Komitas Vardapet and his real name is Sogomon Gevorki Sogomonyan. He was one of the most wonderful artists that was raised in Anatolia.

i think you are wrong,it's a pagan temple..

Zvartnots is a church, built outside the traditional Armenian archetecture of churches....after it was built, it was decided to maintain the unique Armenian architecture of building churches, where the foundation is based on cross.

nice duduk ! very nice voice, it reflects the sorrow for not only the Armenians but maybe for the Turks in that region. I hope to see more musicians of both nations performing together.

This is the best version of Dle Yaman I have heard. Her voice is angelic, and hearing this song makes me tear up. It expresses our grief, the grief that lays deep within every passionate Armenian.

Ok I am from turkey..my two cents..She cant change dile yaman to lele yaman..very wrong..where did she get the idea from??i dont understand it..and unfortunately musicwise it is not done very well..Kardes Turkuler (which means Brother Songs) from turkey sings this song really good.. Dont get me wrong guys..I really love this song...

Dear friend,
we have to accept that every people has its own style of singing...
don`t forget that she`s an opera singer.
and an opera singer sings much better than any other singer in the world... :)
However, Kardes Turkuler sings it well...but Isabel Bayrakhdarian sings it in a more personal, more emotional way...
I like both versions :)
Good luck to her - and thanks for sharing the video with us

While I surely do not know about the original transcript as well as you, maybe it would be of interest that "del" is not a Turkish, but Persian word simply meaning "the heart" (and the -e is a nominative marker). In connection with the expression "Yaman" it makes proper sense, I would say. Anyway, just my two cents ;-)

WHY CHANGE DELE to Le Le ?
such passionate singing, with improper words? WHY?
Ms. Isabel B. Simply WHY ?
And the DVD prints on the screen Le Le !!! Why ?
Dont you know that such a song like this it Touches many people & it means a great Heart Ach since it relates to MILLIONS of Genocide Survivors & their Familes?
I am stuned by your Quality work & same time Puzzled with this disturbing change.
Do Not touch the WORDS PLEASE !
Love your Voice & the Players Fantastic.

I agree with Cheekybreeze comment above, specially on the second part.
DO "NOT" CHANGE THE STYLE OR THE WORDS OF THIS SONG EVER.
VicUSA 5 years ago
also if you are an opera singer stick to opera not joghovertagan like gomidas! or train your voice so it actualy suits this kind of music !
too many Armenian singers are changing the true authentic style.. a voice is better elaborated when it sings a style it suits.
sorry isabel bayrakdarian.. No LELE yaman for you !
BTW there is a reason it is called De Le Yaman research it you will know what it really means its not just a song.. it has a meaning tooo for your information
