Tshvar Pandukht, Poor Migrant

 

Hivand E by Daniel Varouzhan

 

@stverin mej khani m'ankun@ lqvadz

Tshvar pandukht hivand e

Khonavutyun@ anor marmin@ shith-shith

Gerezmanin k@ nete.

 

In the shadow, in the corner of a khan

Poor migrant! He is sick

The dampness, drop by drop

Hurls his body to the grave.

 

The rest can be found at the following site. I don't dare transmit it, Garo may be so kind to do it. http://www.geocities.com/armenia2003/armen...try/hivante.htm

 

The above poem is one such describing the misery of the Armenian migrant workers in Polis who simply melted away and died while their family in the interiors still hoped to receive their hard earned moneys. Ruben Sevak, although known as a poet as well is best known for his short stories, most of which are taken from his medical diaries as he was trained as a physician, he has a few stories describing the hell these migrant workers endured, or better yet, could not. I may access some of his poetry but I don't have his articles and short stories.
