@@WebArtStudioNYno such thing as a ukranian jew,we russian..the ukranians hated our guts.
I was born in stanislawow, today Ivanofrankovsk, my mother used to sing Ukrainian/Yiddish songs. Thanks for touching my soul.
Dear Boris, but Stanisławów used to be polish city. Didn’t you grow up speaking polish and yiddish? Have a nice day 😊
I also born in Stanislaw...Stanislawow ... I do speak polish but i learn polish later when I move to Poland, in Stanislaw we speak in local dialekt similar to ukrainian.I aslo learn Russian in school in was mandatory, english and russian ,But polish I learn later it wasnt easy by way .I had i lady in my grandfaher brother she was native polish she speak only polish ,but we dont speak to much polish it was Socialism,Komunism there .
@@WebArtStudioNYКоторый почему-то "ляснул".
My father-in-law went to seminary(high school) in Stanislav. It was occupied by Poland at the time.
@@weronikahmielewicz4033Yeah Stanislawow used to be polish city in between 1920-1939, but earlier it has been austrian-hungarian city. Didn't man grows up speaking german and yiddish? ))) Indeed the most of the local people was always speaking ukrainian.
"People pick the black cherries and leave the green ones be, the pretty girls are taken and the ugly ones are left alone... oh woe is me and my years, I played around in love, wasted so much time... etc. etc.
I believe the song is called shvartse karshelekh (black cherries). You could find a full translation online.
Thank you!
My beautiful heritage
Did you see the documentary Shtetl ?Long, painful but well worth a watch. Has a beautiful song in it too!
@@coccinelle5932 haven‘t watched yet but I want to
@@vanessaravenstein3479 Hi Vanessa, sorry for the late reply, did you watch it yet? you can find it on youtube as well.
It’s also my heritage. My family are Ukrainian Jews.
Tsars didn't allow Jews to live on in ethnic Russian areas, hence they lived in Ukraine, Poland, Belarus and Lithuania.
Even with their dark past we have an obligation to oppose this genocide against innocent civilians. how ironic Antisemitism was rampant and Jews were frowned upon but now they want Israel to help them!
That was early version of S African
.US etc apartheid--- reservations.
ghettos,. etc.

I think he was just trying to make an analogy.
But it seem to me as way, way off, and that it was inappropriate in view of what this video is about; indeed that person's comment was completely off topic.

as a Central European Jew I love Ukrainian Yiddish music . I hope Ukraine gets the help it needs
Hello. Me too.
❤
Come on. I wouldn't call Ukraine a paradise for the Jews. Actually, all Russian Jews are former Ukrainian or Bielorussian Jews. So, there is no point to split Jews and support Ukraine which is historically antisemitic.
And Yiddish music is not Ukrainian. It is Jewish, as a matter of fact)))
@@dmitryshaykin3784человек говорит об исполнении на идиш и стилизации на еврейский манер украинских песен.
That rythm is very beautiful and amazing and it's a boost to the soul. Like 👍🏽 that music and song. Thank You!
Beautiful innocent people! Loved seeing your old family fotos ! God Bless you!
INCREDIBLE PHOTOS!
THANK-YOU FOR KEEPING US ALIVE 🕯️
If there'd be more of such culture exchange and sharing of such pearls then I think humanity would at least have the opportunity to understand eachother that much better!🤔🤔🤔😘
Taaaa for sharing this grand piece of yiddish / ukraine culture with us.
Did you see the documentary Shtetl ?Long, painful but well worth a watch. Has a beautiful song in it too!
В Варшаве и сегодня есть еврейский идиш театр, созданный Идой Каминский.
It breaks my heart knowing that these beautiful souls and their wonderful culture are gone forever.
Well there was a mass immigration prior to the holocaust! there’s many of us :)
These souls had families, many of whom fled to the Americas and to Israel. And in so in that sense, they are not gone forever, their ancestors are around and live normal lives today. I am one of them. I want to do my best to preserve that history and remember it. It is indeed sad that Yiddish is a dying language though, and I hope we can somehow keep it alive.
@@dev_not_nullИдиш умирает среди евреев, но живёт среди других народов и эта песня в исполнении польки Ольги Мелищук, прекрасное доказательство этому, есть и другие исполнители, не еврейского происхождения, которые не просто исполняют песни, но и знают язык, на котором эти песни написаны.
Many cultures, languages and people are dying. It makes me cry. But most of people don't care. I wish they felt this feeling...
@@typical_orange_catYeah , when I came to Australia I spoke Russian Ukrainian, German & learnt English at school in Australia 🇦🇺 I married Aussie girl at 24 and have 3 children , 4 grand children who consider me nothing else but Australian and have no interest in my parents at all . Just goes to show how insignificant our historical past is to them , wife included . Just thought I share that with you . Andrej Kondisenko Cairns Australia 🇦🇺
Vibrant and jolly - refreshingly natural - beauty of voice allowed to shine through gentle musical accompaniment
This is my and my family's beautiful heritage
All that wonderful rich heritage and tradition destroyed so callously and wickedly by the Tsar, the pogroms committed in his name, Communism, and finally the barbaric murdering Nazis!
Same I’m 90% East European Jew ❤ my name Is konya marksov
Mine too
Very best wishes for you. Bravo - sound, pictures, video, plotkes, schlimassel, tempo, drive and memory
I never really thought about my father's background too much until the war started with Ukraine! Realized that our Jewish heritage on my father's side is from Odessa and Kiev. My Great Grandfather was killed in a Pogrom Against JewsIn the early 1900s.
My Great grandmother fled with all her children to Brazil after getting Visas thru my great Aunt who was Married to the Brazilian ambassador to France.
История погромов єто плохие воспоминания ... Но єто было и это печаль, и за это стыдно и надо каяться перед Всевышним.
I'm sorry your family suffered so...
That is very similar to my family history.
I know exactly how you feel. I experienced the same given my maternal grandfather’s origins in Ukraine!
My great grandparents died in a pogrom near Odessa, also.
Thank you so much for this wonderfull song, and journey to the past.💐💙💛🕊🇺🇦🕊

This is beautiful music. Thank you for sharing this!

some of my folks came from Ukraine...and I remember one song only...so it was nice to hear these! thanks!
Piękne! Żałuję, że nie rozumiem słów w jidisz,a ta początkowa ukraińska ludowa piosenka to jedna z moich ukochanych! Całość trafia i tak prosto do serca!❤️
Nie rozumiesz słów w jidisz- trzeba spróbować się nauczyć jidisz, sam się uczyłem, ale..przy talentach językowych mam słomiany zapał, niestety. .
@@tomx2ful jezeli znasz niemiecki zrozumiesz i Yiddish !😉
Yiddish jest bardzo zblizony do niemickiego w kazdym z krajow ma on troche inny zargon . W ukrainskim Yiddish w tej piosence nawet znajdziesz kilka polskich slow ( Polke ,brunetke , koketke ) .
Ona tu spiewa jak sobie znalazla kawalera co juz ma 43 lata 🤭😉
@@miriamzajfman4305 Ale litery są hebrajskie.
@@tomx2ful Prawda . Yiddish ma hebrajski alfabet . Aby czytac nie wystarczy nauczyc sie liter , gdyz ich wymowa czesto sie zmienia w zaleznosci od danego slowa . Kazda z liter ma trzy inne dzwieki . Kiedy dzieci ucza sie czytac podaje im sie prawidlowa wymowe . Pozniej musisz wymawiac prawidlowo bez zadnej pomocy . Kazdy z jezykow mozna sie nauczyc ( ja sama znam ich siedem , zyjac w czterech krajach 😉) Jedna z moich corek wlada Mandarin ,w tym jezyku nawet nie ma liter sa tak zwane charaktery jest ich ogromna ilosc 6.500,aby mowic plynmie musisz znac co najmniej 3.500 🤷🤦.

Ukrainian soil sustained my Jewish Yiddish-speaking ancestors for generations. Of course, I feel a connection to the land. !אוקראינה חי слава україні! Glory to Ukraine!
Sure, and your ancestors neighbours had no problem murdering Jews and taking their land and property.... just fact. Never forget Babi Yar. It wasn't the Germans that murdered 1000s of Yidden there!
Yes. I hear the locals really loved us.

В России начались погромы Александра III еврейских общин.
Затем указ распространился на регионы-сателлиты, в том числе на Украину.
До этого евреи традиционно поддерживали хорошие отношения с украинцами и имели долгую историю принятия и уважения как отдельной части украинской культуры.
Все изменилось в 1800-х годах с этим царем, который ненавидел все, кроме москвичей. После этого он перешел к погромам украинцев.
Исторически Россия распространяла ядовитую ложь и пропаганду против любых народов, к которым российское государство решило применить насилие, в качестве оправдания для кражи их собственности.
Геноцид стал для России полезным инструментом, позволяющим заставить замолчать своих жертв и избежать любой ответственности за преступление по краже их земель и имущества. Поскольку законные собственники мертвы, вернуть свои земли тоже было некому. («Мертвые не рассказывают сказки».)
Россия и русские участвуют в этой жестокой игре уже более века. Пришло время миру остановить эгоистичное, ленивое и порочное поведение России, занимающееся захватом земель.
השיר הזה מזכיר לי את סבא שלי. והמוצא היהודי שלי.💟💟💟💟🇮🇱🇧🇷🇮🇱🇧🇷

Naprzód Ukrainio! Super nutka🕊️
I can cry all day / night of what happened to those poor Jews in Europe!!
Such a simple, beautiful life all destroyed.
You never met us socially. Clearly.
My great grandmother was ukrainian jewish and grew uo in a shtetl named bobrynez.
Дуже файно

I love yiddish music and tradition ♥️
Same! It speaks to me, even though I'm as Goy as it gets!
Merci from Paris France 👍 👍 👍.

Stupenda!❤ Siano maledetti per l'eternità coloro i quali hanno cancellato gli Shtel! 😡 (do you remember Inca e Aztechi, per citarne alcuni...)
Yiddish songs from Ukraine glory Ukraine Jewish
Ca évoque plutôt la Roumanie ou la Moldavie.
Sh'koyekh Olga! Pięknie!
Les vieilles photos sont extrêmement émouvantes.
Shalom all! Lets praise god and feel alright! They can kill us but they can not stand against the most high!
The Ukrainian Yiddish dialect is the gold standard of the 5 Yiddish dialects. My wife is from Ukraine and I had the pleasure of seeing the city of Bratslav the birthplace of the Hasidic Bratslav Dynasty and the birthplace of the Bratslav style of Klezmer music.
Lindos os gansos. A música eh maravilhosa. A voz da cantora eh muito doce e ótima.
As a Polish Jewess, I'm in love with Jewish Ukrainian music! 🌸
The first song was pure Ukrainian. The second was so high pitched and squeaky that I couldn't understand a word!
Великолепное исполнение Ольга большой молодец штахк шейн зи зиньгт мит идише нешумэ

😇😇😇😇😇 Luv it!
What a pretty pair of songs! How old is the recording? The sound of it reminds me of some Mexican folk songs from around the time of Pancho Villa (around 1910). I know there were German-speaking communities in Texas and they had a strong influence on the music of the borderlands. I wonder if there were Yiddish-speaking communities too?
Edit: example
Adelita th-cam.com/video/hlGtOv-QEQQ/w-d-xo.html
Edit 2: Forgive me if it’s too much, but you have sent me off on a musical quest today. I wanted an example of an accordion tune from the same time period as Adelita. What I found was this recording of two artists from my own homeland:

interesting idea
One of my uncles was born in kiev exilied with his father to argentina because of Tsarist pogroms... Despite that, Braun Family comes from Latvia
I wish there were a translation of the song.
"People pick the black cherries and leave the green ones be, the pretty girls are taken and the ugly ones are left alone... oh woe is me and my years, I played around in love, wasted so much time... etc. etc.

It's interesting to hear a Ukrainian version of a song that is more familiar in the Galician version
how interesting
Невозможно смотреть без слез на фотографии. Все эти евреи (за редким исключением) были безжалостно убиты добрыми соседями, иногда ещё до прихода немцев.
