The Song is as Follows:


The Tsambasin has been burnt (the summer retreat -holiday area above Ordu)
And only the walls remain

And they have fallen to the searching
Orndu's Strong men (lol)


Oh mother it has burnt
Ordu's Fields
and there is nothing left
Only the Ash


Crying are Gods
small Birds
They are crying like eyes of water wells???
Tsamlouk is crying
so is Karakiol
The beautiful pine trees are crying as well..


The Tsambasin has burnt
No houses will be left
Big and small (young -- Old)
poor - rich
Every sits and weeps
