This is a old Armenian song I like;
Dared Laham, the famous Syrian humorist actor sings this song, with oud, "Fatoome, Fatoomeh" in a film sequence film where he's in jail, a so nice sequence
But I ignore any link where we could watch this.
Another guitar amatory version:

No comment from nobody? it's touching, doesn't it? not fantastic quality but somewhere beauty and simplicity are two sisters:rolleyes:

bonjour Gilgamesh! a lovely melody- it would be nice to hear a version played on some ouds with vocals. it's more like two brothers in this one than two sisiters! ;)

There are only two options... Either everyone already knows, or nobody care for :D
Hi Big Bill Bronzy brother :airguitar: !!! I agree with you, it's a lovely rhyme witch do melt the baby boys;Your idea is also mine... as two sisters!
As soon as I would have a Ud, be sure I'll start!

Gilga, c'est Doureid Laham. Je pense que le film s'appelle "Ghawwar afandi", toujours touchant quand on le revoit, beaucoup de nostalgie. Doureid a 75 ans mtnt, que Dieu lui prete longue vie.
Je pense que Garoun (ou Karoun?) veut dire en armenien "printemps". Il vaut mieux demander a un armenien.
Nice link you posted. I've never seen the "Loulou" play.
By who is Garoun Garouneh sung in this play? Can't recognize the face.
