Tatar Song - Ay Yoldizim - Zuhre Kiriş



These are the lyrics below as Zuhre Ebe sings them.

ay yoldızım, yöoldızım

 

iy duskayım buyın zifa
tal kebek bögeläsen
tallar kebek bögeläsen
kem öçen özeläsen?
tallar kebek bögeläsen
kem öçen özeläsen?

uzlärenen köyesi bar
bezgä kilep su ala
çilägen tutırıp ala da
kölä kölä yugala

ay yoldızım yoldızım
yoldızımda ruşanım
sin kergän göl bakçasına
kerergä tırışamın
ay yoldızım yoldızım
yoldızımda ruşanım
sin kergen göl bakçasına
kerergä tırışamın


su buyında kiyä belän
kiyä balası ide
mänge sagınmalık itep
karap kalası ide
menge sagınmalık itep
karap kalası ide

uzlärenen köyösı bar
bezgä kilep su ala
çilägen çumırıp ala da
kölä kölä yugala

ay yoldızım yoldızım
yoldızımda rushanım
sin yoregän göl bakçasına
kerergä tırışamın
ay yoldızım yoldızım
yoldızımda rushanım
sin yoregän göl bakçasına
kererge tırışamın

aklı sitsä kulmegennen
töymälere altından
sandugaçlarga ohşatıp
karap kalam artından ...
sandugaçlarga ohşatıp
karap kalam artından

uzlärenen köyösı bar
bezgä kilep su ala
çilägen çumırıp ala da
kölä kölä yugala
ay yoldızım yoldızım
yoldızımda ruşanım
sin yoregän göl bakçasına
kerergä tırışamın
ay yoldızım yoldızım
yoldızımda ruşanım
sin kergän göl bakçasına
kerergä tırışamın

Zuhre Ebe was a lifelong educator and a passionate Tatar Ebi and I believe would be very pleased if she knew that her voice/words were being utilized years after her death to teach people exactly how to enjoy our rich language. She sounds great!

This blurb from the back cover:

"The musical career of Gali Iliasov, the son of a miner, can be said to have begun during his service to the Navy.  On the eve of the celebrations marking the Day of the Navy the director of the sailors' club heard the young navy-man sing and so Private Iliasov promptly received orders to appear at a a concert with popular Italian song, but from force of civic habit, he refused to sing on the stage.  Imagine how astonished he was when the major, without more ado, exclaimed "Either the stage or the guard-house!" and so Gali chose the stage.  His debut proved to be very successful. 

On completing his term of service, Iliasov studied at the Khaborovsk Musical School, in the class of Yevgenia Vengerova, a very experienced teacher.  He then continued training under the guidance of assistant-Professor Boris Berkovich at the School of Music attached to the Moscow Conservatory.   

On graduating from the school, the singer was invited to join the Tatar Philharmonic named for Gaddullah Tukay.  In a short time, the young singer mastered the national repertory and scored a triumph at the All-Russian Competition of Folk Songs in Moscow.  

In subsequent years Gali Iliasov represented Tatar musical art in Moscow, Leningrad and Alma-Ata.  He is always a welcome guest in villages and workers' clubs.  From the very first days of the construction of the Kama Automobile Plant the singer frequently gives concerts in different departments of the Plant and in the recreation rooms of hostels.  

The singers creative achievements did not go unnoticed; he was awarded the Diploma of the Supreme Soviet of the Tatar ASSR and in 1970 he was granted the honorary title of Merited Artist of the Tatar ASSR.  

G. Iliasov has a lyrico-dramatic tenor of beautiful timbre and broad range and this allows the singer to sing on the opera stage and the concert platform with equal success.  He constantly works at new vocal compositions of Soviet authors frequently appearing as their first performer.  

This record offers the finest examples of the singer's song repertory and is best defined as being a concise anthology of Tatar songs.  Besides popular works of composers of the elder generation (S. Saidashev, Z. Khabibullin and N. Zhiganov) the disc includes songs of young authors (R. Yenikeyev, A. Monosypov and S. Khabibullin), which represents their creative search and finding in the sphere of the national variety song.  Gali Iliasov show a marked interest in the lyric songs of Rustem Yahkhim, two of which are recorded on this disc.

Tatars and Bashkirs - Bruno Hi-Fi 1959

This is a 33 1/3 LP of Tatar and Bashkir music from 1959
The top video is the Tatar side. The bottom video is the Bashkir side
It was purchased on eBay in 2016 from a Russian vendor in New Jersey. 
These versions are familiar to us in California as someone at some point made copies of this.  My father (Fazil Sadri) had a copy and it was on Reel-to-Reel tape, very old, played hundreds of times and sounded like Tatar music played underwater.   These digitized versions in the videos are crisp and fresh as could be...
The songs are incredibly beautiful.
