Anhas Parki Jampa


Arpa

Recommended Posts

Who knows why Charents writes the following lines in Yes Im Anush Hayastani?

 

"Inchpes anhas parki jampa, Yes im Masis Sarn em siroum"

"A road to unattainable glory".

In fact that is not the first and only time Charents uses that expression.

In the following poem(below), Depi Lyarn Masis, dedicated to Aksel Bakounts, among many references to Masis here is what we read towards the end;

"Dem@ dashtn er antsayr, isk hervum Masis@,

Lyarn ayn vsem, vori janaparhov mi or

Bartsratsel er inq@ ev sartsanist

Geghetskutyamb gervel:- Ev ayzhm, menavor

Na gnum ee krkin depi herun ayn lourth,

Depi lyar@ anhas ou vehanist,-

Depi gagat@ bartsr, vor ir zhoghovurd@

Hamarel e havet it goyutyan khorhourd@,

Vor jashakeh ayntegh haverzhakan hangist..."

Sun-flavored Speech List Poems

 

I love my sweet Armenia's sun-flavored speech,

I love the plaintive musings of our ancient saz,

The crimson flowers, the burning fragrance of roses,

And the tender-bodies dance of the Nairean girls I love.

 

I love our evening dark sky, the transparent water, the flashing lake,

The summer sun, and the winter's dragon hissing a grand blizzard,

The forbidding black walls of huts, lost in the night,

And the stones of a thousand years and ancient towns.

 

Wherever I may be, I won't forget our songs of sorrow,

Nor forget our metal-graved books, now prayers to us,

However deeply our bloody suffering probes my heart,

I shall yet love my wounded, orphaned sweet Armenia.

 

My heart shall long to know no other tale:

Naregatsi, Kouchag - who now possesses their haloed brows?

Roam round the world, you'll not find a peak white as Ararat;

As the path of glory is endless, so is my love for the Massis mountain.
