The Hymn of the Circassian Emigrants We left the fatherland in laments, But we shall return singing joyful airs, Those of our nation who perished Their precious testament we shall carry back: Our Mighty God, safeguard our fatherland! We shall forever remain Circassian, And our nation shall grow and thrive, We shall take the road to glory, And strive to become one of the great nations of this world! Our Great God, protect our hearth![1] Though expelled from the fatherland, And sailing across the great seas, We never lost possession of our soul Living in foreign lands! Our Supreme God, save our fatherland! Never did we compromise, Nor did we ever hold our head low, For our precious customs and traditions We have been able to earn great esteem. God Almighty, preserve our motherland! The language that we speak, The mother tongue that we never forsook, Here, we were able to preserve, and its time for us Now to bestow it to our children. Our Supreme God, protect our fatherland! We emigrated in grief, But we shall return in joy, Those that our nation lost Their cherished last will we shall take back: Our Mighty Lord, safeguard our sacred domicile! We shall always be Circassian, And our nation shall grow and grow, We shall take the road to glory And become one of the notable nations of this world! Our Great God, safeguard our hearth! We shall raise our Circassian Etiquette aloft, All the Circassians across the globe, We shall nourish our Circassian language, And validate our reason for being. O Lord of Might, protect our ancestral land! Our distinctive Circassianness We shall not allow to be dissolved in this vast world, Our unitary people Shall not be lost amongst other nations. Our Mighty God, save our Old Country! We left the fatherland in laments, Yet we shall return in song, Those of our nation who perished Their precious testament we shall carry back: Our Supreme God, safeguard our country! We shall remain Circassian for ever and ay, And our nation shall grow and grow, We shall follow glory road, And endeavour to be a great nation in this world! Our Great God, protect our hearth! |
ЗезыдзэкIар: Жэмыхъуэ Амджэд (Амыщ)
[Translated by Amjad Jaimoukha]
[1] In Circassian (and in general North Caucasian) cosmology everything was held in place by the universal chain. The hearth-chain (жьэгу лъахъш; zchegw lhax’sh) was the household’s link to the cosmos – the coupling to the universal scheme of things. Every home had a permanently lit hearth with a wrought iron chain hanging down the chimney. All native North Caucasian religions regard the family hearth with special reverence and it was the principal place at which family rituals were conducted, principally offerings and sacrifices and the rites associated with the cult of Dade (Weriydade; Дадэ; Уэридадэ), the clan hero, the head of the household, whose immortal soul transmigrated to hedrixe (хьэдрыхэ; the world beyond) after death. The patrons of the domestic hearth were the deities Sozeresh and Zchegwpathe (Жьэгупатхьэ; literally: God of the Hearth). A new bride was ‘unchained’ from her father’s hearth and then ‘joined’ to that of her father-in-law in special circum-ambulatory ceremonies. Vestiges of the cult of Dade are come upon in the corpus of ceremonial songs collectively referred to as ‘Weriydade’, the most famous of which being the one chanted during the bridal homecoming. The hearth chain still retains symbolic functions and significance.
