Jako el Muzikante – letter from Hadrianopolis

28 February 2020 – Shabbat is almost here

Enjoy with Sephardic music from Hadrianopolis, by Jako el Muzikante

Xurxo, the real name of the artist that incarnates the character of Jako el Muzikante, explained to me that this song was written by a poet from Hadrianopolis (Enderne in Ladino, Edirne in Turkish) about who it was rumored that was dead.

The responsible of that rumour was Hayim, another man, mentioned in the song. The poet answered with this humour and grace to announce that he was alive. I have translated the lyrics into English. Enjoy!

Esta letra vos eskrivo:
I write this letter to you,
to tell you that I am alive
and to prove that I am healthy
I write to you with my hand.

 

Thanks to God,
my health got strong,
ah, it became so good
that I make hold in the floor where I step.Hayim, my dear,
I always try to give you joy.
I would never leave
without your permission.
