about

buying this album you are support the Ukraine refugees in Georgia, the all money from all sales of my music on bandcamp goes directly to humanitarian foundation "Choose to Help" in Tbilisi on clothes, food and other helps.

This track is based on two funeral songs - "Faryody talaf" which means "Scream of loss" and untitled piece - folk songs created on traditional persian poetry "Rubai" in uniqal music style "Falak" what translated from Tajik as "Sky" - solo genre which is exist mostly in Pamir area where the singer/player is refers by his music not to public but to the skies.

texts of these songs in english:

<Scream of loss>
"Oh, grief! Who died young,
Died, unable resist to death.
Usually people dies by a natural death,
But we are dying, looking at helpless kids."

<***>
"In autumn the leaves fall from the trees,
Youth is no barrier to death.
When your death hour will comes,
Wherever you go, you will scatter to dust."

Dedicated to the victims of wars with sadness on kids who will never grow up..
