أغنية لعيد القوزلي، وهو عيد رأس السنة حسب التقويم الشرقي، وهو أحد أعياد العلويين.

🎶A chant for traditional Qouzalli festival celebrated in Syrian coast especially by Alawites, lighting bonfires & preparing food to mark the New Year per old Eastern calendar:

🎶For Qouzalli, O Hanna, [Christian male name]

You're invited tonight to our place.🎶

🎶Come visit us this evening,

The fire will tell you about us.

Tonight’s dish is made of wheat, [Harisa]

With big chunks [of meat] on top.🎶

🎶Don’t be late, my brother,

Welcome, welcome to the visitors.🎶

🎶We have Christmas pastries,

Covered with extra oil.

We offer them to our loved ones,🎶

🎶They carry the scent of my ancestors.🎶

🎶Qouzalli, the fire has been lit,

And the neighbor calls to his neighbor.🎶

🎶May it [Qouzalli] return to you again, And may this home prosper & flourish.🎶
