Lena Chamamyan-Sareri Hovin Mernem-Armenian song-Սարերի հովին մեռնեմ

Lena Chamamyan is a Syrian singer of Armenian descent. Born in Damascus, she started singing at an early age giving her first concert when she was five years old.


After graduating from the Faculty of Business in 2002, she studied eastern classical song at the Aleppo Conservatory, but also ventured into jazz and traditional Armenian music. On her first album Hal Asmar Ellon (2006), which reflects her style of oriental music mixed with elements of jazz, Chamamyan collaborated with the Aleppo-born instrumentalist and trumpet player Basel Rajoub.

In September 2006, Chamamyan and Rajoub were declared winners of the first Radio Monte Carlo Moyen-Orient Music Award at the Al Hussein Cultural Centre in Amman, Jordan.

In May 2007, Chamamyan launched her new album, entitled Shamat at Al Hamra Theater in Damascus.

*******************************************************

Noticed some people asked about the lyrics of the Armenian song Lena sings - Sareri Hovin Mernem. Therefore post here the translation of the song, the original text in Armenian, and the Latin transcription.

The translation of the original song (from Armenian to English)

Would die for the coldness of my mountains

Would die for the coldness of my dear mountains
Die for the coldness of my dear mountains, die for the coldness of my dear mountains;

Would die for the loftiness of my dear,
Die for the loftiness of my dear, die for the loftiness of my dear,
One year passed as I haven't seen him,
Would die for the one who has seen him.

The rivers stopped flowing, stopped flowing, stopped flowing,
Their waters do not bring any news about my dear,
Any news about my dear, any news about my dear,
What if my heart would become cold,
Unless you inflame it with your love.

Stand halted, cannot walk, cannot walk,
Cannot drop any tear for him, any tear for him, any tear;
One year passed as I haven't seen him,
Would die for the one who has seen him,
My dear is always in my heart,
But won't tell his name.
