The Chagatai - Epic Music
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ต.ค. 2024
- Music & vocals by Farya Faraji, based on traditional folk motifs from Mongolia, jaw harp by Ren Vas Terul; check out his epic channel here: / @renvasterul Please note that this isn't reconstructed historical music, only modern Mongolian and Altaic music with a historical theme.
I thought the Chagatai, the dynasty emerging from Genghis Khan's second son Chagatai Khan, would make for an interesting musical theme, given that they were Mongols who became Turkicised, adopting the Chagatai Turkic language as their native tongue, Persian as their official state language, and Islam as their religion. I therefore wrote this piece in the basics of Mongolian form: a pentatonic melody accompanied by the moorin khuur fiddle, the national instrument of Mongolia, a Mongolian yatga, the Central Asian and Turkic dombra, a jaw harp expertly played by my colleague Ren Vas Terul, a flute, and overtone throat singing in the khoomei technique.
The lyrics are in the Chagatai Turkic and Persian languages. The Persian pronunciation I used is my own native modern Persian pronunciation from Iran, and the Chagatai pronunciation is bound to be inaccurate in many ways so take it with a grain of salt.
Lyrics:
(Persian)
Farzandān-e Changis,
Pish be sooye piroozi!
Translation:
Sons of Genghis,
Onwards to victory!
(Chagatai Turkic)
Uş padisah halgini rastliq
voliga salmasa, qum şaharini başğay!
Malik-i jabbar bar ermis
Padişah-i be misal,
Chingis Khaan!
Hämmä farzandlarim bē-gam bolğay,
Hämmä farzandlarim bē-gam bolğay,
Samargandgicä safar qildim,
Turangicä safar qildim,
Ay, Muhammad! Uş kafirga jawab bärmägäysän!
Ay, Muhammad! Uş kafirga jawab bärmägäysän!
Translation:
If a king does not place his people on the road of truth, may the sands cover his city!
There was once a powerful king,
A king without equals,
Genghis Khan!
May all my children be without suffering,
I have gone to Samarqand,
I have gone to Turan,
Oh Muhammad,
Respond not to the infidel!

Turkic has always been a predominantly spoken language, used at the courts of the local rulers, in the army, by rural or nomadic populations, and as a lingua franca among the multiethnic tribal confederations. It was even the language of communication in the Mongol army. Turkic has also been a supra-regional language of communication among smaller communities of speakers of minority languages and a means of communication among people of different ethnic backgrounds in certain social and professional groups, e.g. the Bāzārī class in Teheran.

You can write a song about the Kyrgyz khaganate or about the commander of the Alp Sol Tepek

Sen kaybetmememiz gereken bir değersin Farya. Sen bir efsanesin ve çok yeteneklisin.
As a hazara from Afghanistan who literally are persianized turko-mongols I felt finally somehow represented. Although we may have not spoken chagatai turkic, as Babur himself stated we spoke moghuli a dialect of mongolian possibly. But the fact such a beautiful song can represent such distinct cultures is unbelievable. Literally Iranian or turkic or mongolian song you have dropped so far has been a banger.
Thank you brother, I'm honoured
Hazaras are known as Persianized Mongolic people not Turko-Mongol. This term was used for turkified Mongolic people.
@@MohammedMohammadi-nl7tx You're not quite right friend, because as genetic studies show Hazaras are a mix of turkic and mongol with the local Iranian populations who spoke persian. We are more close to Uzbeks and Uyghurs of today than the modern day mongols. The term Hazaras has been presented to be mingghan social or military unit if 1000, which literally also means thousand in Persian. However, no sources even conclude that the mongols left their troops after the invasion of Bamyan or Hazarajat areas. Instead one of the most clear migrations to the areas were the Neguderis who came later, but then again Babur mentioned that the Hazaras are distinct from Neguderis and Mongols. This means that during the 13 th century several waves of turko-mongol hordes came to Afghanistan and eventually settled and mixed with the locals Iranian populations. We adopted Persian eventually and also converted to Shia Islam in the centuries to come.
There is no definite proof that the Hazaras are pure mongol, because recent genetics shows that is not the case. What we know is that they are likely turko-mongol who came later in waves.
@@MohammedMohammadi-nl7tx
Hazares Are Persianzed Mongols and Azerbaijanis are Turkized Persians
The confederation of tribes later known as Mongols initially spoke various languages, Turkic, Mongolic and perhaps even Iranian
hey Farya, love your music. especially Tornike the Georgian, i am from georgia myself and was amazed when i stumbled across the song .i was the shocked about how well you empathized traditional Georgian music and made it so cool!
i guess that you are a sophisticated person and know much about the Georgian history, there are a lot of interesting characters and us georgians would love if you make a song of these figures which are so important for us!
much love from georgia ❤❤❤🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪

Music from my turco-mongol cousins (I’m Native American)

Native Americans come from Siberia. Some even had indo-European blood from Central Asia before Europeans even discovered America, such was the case with the young girl who was found preserved under the ice on top of a mountain in Argentina.
Bruh
Dont bother those haters, greetings from your turco-mongol cousin! Idk what tribe you are but many american religions were really similar to early Tengrism (not what those larpers practice)
@@aeaeeaoiauea everyone is distantly cousins anyways
I love the fact that a Persian phrase “Padishah i bi misāl” is just thrown in the Chagatai Turkic text with an accent. Top notch my friend. You must be proud.
Clarification: it's not Mongolian, it's Chagatai Turkic, and Chagatai Turkic was so deeply influenced by Persian that it absorbed loanwords as well as entire phrases/expressions, like Padishah i bi misāl :)
@@faryafaraji Also, being basically unfamiliar with this particular language, I noticed “farzandlarim” being an interesting case of a Persian word getting a Turkic plural ending
@@IvanPopovArtThis is just a common thing in Turkik languagues, not peculiar to this text.
another uneducated pers here
@@oghuz_kaghan Yep, there are few Turkic loanwords in modern Persian, but they are very few compared to the Persian loanwords in Turkic languages. But that doesn't matter; what matters is the fact that *Eran and Turan* have existed together for at least 1500 years now.

Sounds hype as fuck. I've always found that the beats per minute in some mongol/turkic sounds, have the same frequency as a galloping horse's hoofbeats. Or maybe that's just me!
Good ear! The turkic and mongol cultures used strumming techniques that specifically sounded like horses galloping. There are other folk songs where you can hear it better.
100% this is done to immerse the listener into the setting as often such music accompanies our storytelling and epic poetry recitation traditions.
I can't be the only one who enjoys tuning in to this music every single day, right? It's like a remedy that brightens my day and makes me forget my concerns
Exactly the same with me.
The weights will fear me if I listen to this while working out. What a cool track. It’s nearly impossible to top “the Varangians” - my favourite track- in my opinion but it’s always so unique with your music and just amazing to listen to it.
I just can't stop being happy that this channel exists. Where else I could find, say, cool atmospheric music for a playthrough as a Chagatai-Timurid dynasty in Crusader Kings?
With such great quality music out there, someone is bound to get hooked so bad, he may start conquering the world 😂
@@youvebeengreeked Only the great masterpiece is missing; a song about Genghis Khan.

Afghans are not Turks, but there are Turks living in Afghanistan
The Hazara speak persian and their culture is staunchly Iranian. No matter who their fathers were, they are still sons and daughters of the iranian who raised them.
@@yaqubebased1961Hazaras were Chagatai speaking before Afghan Invasions.
@@papazataklaattiranimam Still, they are their own ppl now. So it's not up to us outsiders to judge who they are. They can decide for themselves.
Better than most popular music being released today. Change my mind.
It is interesting that there is a city in Khorasan, Iran, whose name is Joghtai(Chagatai) population is Khorasani Turk. I love how diverse Iran is

W song there is no doubt great song
Although the Turks often comprised the bulk of the Mongol army as well as the bulk of armies opposed to the Mongols, throughout the domains of the Mongol Empire there was a diffusion of military technology, which has already bee and also ethnic groups. In addition to the Mongols and Turks, other ethnicities served in the Mongol military machine and found themselves distant from home.
