"Mamli Mukhasa" (Georgia, Meskheti region)
Possibly a feast day song. It celebrates the country of Georgia and her people, symbolized as a tree.
Translation: [First part, a prayer]: First of all, let us remember God, and then all of the saints and the Mother of God. Your grace is with us.
[Second part]: The oak trembles and will fall down, the oak and the midges. The oak has fallen and has filled with water. Fish are hatching inside, they must be caught. How, boy? With Moses’s net, boy!
Caller: Abi
