Kol Dodi - Sephardic Song

Oud by Oğüzhan Özkılıç, vocals by Kelareh Kabiri and Farya Faraji, arrangement by Farya Faraji. This is another song from the Sephardic musical repertoire, the community of Jews expelled from Iberia at the end of the Reconquista and who settled around the Mediterranean, principally in the Ottoman Empire.
The first challenge in providing an ethnomusicologically informed rendition is of Sephardic songs is determining what context the rendition should exemplify. Indeed, Sephardic music is a repertoire, not a style, which means it's a collection of shared songs, but the playing style is geographically determined: Serbian Sephardic Jews would have Serbian sounding music, those in Rhodes would have music sounding like Rhodes', etc. I decided my rendition would have the typological features of West Anatolian and Aegean music of circa the previous two centuries. Therefore, I used an oud, a saz, qanun, kaval, and percussions of the area. It's important to note that I'm unsure whether the song was actually performed in that region or not, as some songs were historically more localised and very few songs of the Sephardis actually date back to their common Iberian roots pre-dispersion.
Unlike most Sephardi songs, this one is not in the Ladino language, but instead in Hebrew, a language that was long dead, or rather dormant for much of Jewish history, and only survived has a liturgical and prestige language before being fully revived recently. The lyrics come from the Book of Songs.
Hebrew lyrics:
Kol dodi, kol dodi
Kol dodi hineh ze ba
M’kaltez al heharim
M’daleg al hagva’ot
English translation:
My lover's voice, my lover's voice,
My lover comes!
Leaping on the mountains,
Skipping on the valleys.

Yes, it's from Song of Solomon chapter 2: 8 "The voice of my beloved! Behold, he comes, leaping yover the mountains, bounding over the hills. 9 My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag. Behold, there he stands behind our wall, gazing through the windows, looking through the lattice."

Your description of Hebrew is only half-right: through Hebrew remained the language of intercommunal (though not intracommunal) communication as well as the common language used by Jewish merchants until the late 19th century CE, when Ben-Yehuda "revived" (and imho mutilated) it as a language of daily intracommunal usage. A lovely rendition of the song.

It's always nice seeing someone who plays traditional music and actually gives a thought to the cultures it's from. It would be a pretty big disservice to these cultures to put out a song claiming to be traditional, but the lyrics are just a mangled mess of "I read about Hebrew on Wikipedia once" nonsense.

@gregorsamsa9264 16 күн бұрын

Note regarding the text: the lyrics come from Shir HaShirim (Song of Songs) 2:8. Traditionally attributed to Solomon, the book is a series of love poems. Despite its near total absence of explicitly religious content, both Jews and Christians hold it to be allegorical. We hold it to be an allegory of the love of G-d and the People Israel (though later Jewish mystics would read additional layers of meaning into it,) and Christians hold it to be an allegory of love between Christ and the Church. Rabbi Akiva, one of the most important rabbis of Mishnaic times, is reported to have said "for all the writings are holy, but the Song of Songs is the holy of holies!" In most communities, the book (which is quite short) is recited in its entirety on the Shabbos that falls during Pesach; ostensibly due to its allegorical content, but also implicitly because Pesach is a springtime holiday, and the book is filled with imagery of verdant, blooming gardens and hillsides. In medieval Spain, the book took on a literary significance as Jewish poets worked from Arabic genres and metres to reinvent Hebrew poetry, writing both liturgical poetry and (arguably for the first time in the language) secular poetry in which quotations or borrowed phrases from Song of Songs were used prominently. For the Jewish mystical tradition, which reached its full flowering in the 1500s mediterranean diaspora, the book, which this tradition sees as the fullest possible expression of the erotic aspects of the divine, took on additional status. It became the custom in many Sephardic/Mizrachi communities to recite it in its entirety on friday afternoon before Shabbos, a custom which spread to those parts of the Ashkenazi world more inclined to pick up Kabbalistic customs from the Sephardim. This particular verse is also recited during a ritual caled Kiddush Levanah, a monthly blessing said on the waxing moon. (Sources: for the reinvention of Hebrew poetry in Muslim Spain, see Scheindlin, "Wine, Women, and Death," and "The Gazelle," Cole, "The Dream of the Poem," and Carmi, "Penguin Book of Hebrew Verse." For the mystical uses of the text, this is a subject of very extensive scholarship, but the one I'm drawing from is Hellner-Eshed's "A River Flows From Eden; the Language of Mystical Experience in the Zohar." For the liturgical uses of Song of Songs, I literally just used my siddur (prayer book,) which is a Koren Sefard Siddur. Koren is the publisher, and 'Sefard' confusingly does not refer to one of the Sefardic rites, but to the prayer rite of Ashkenazi Jews in the 1700s who decided to alter the Ashkenazi rite to be more in line with Sephardi customs, especially customs of mystical origin. The most common though by no means the only rite used by Sephardic and Mizrachi communities is called 'Edot Hamizrach.,' testimony of the east. If you want to confirm the origin of this verse, just look up Song of Songs 2:8. Sefaria is a good website for this.)

@FireflowerDancer 15 күн бұрын

As a Christian I can confirm that we do consider Song of Songs to be allegorical, but we also believe it's about romantic love between two married people, as the main event of the book is Solomon being presented with his bride on their wedding night. Side note, I often think this verse is where we got the phrases, 'Young buck,' and 'stag party.' Also, in Egyptian cinema from the Golden era, there is sometimes a window with a sort of lattice in the beginning of a scene which a young woman peeks through before she comes out to do a dance.

Wonderful song. One recommendation related to this. There is a famous song from Bosnia called "Kad ja pođoh na Bembašu", which is actually a Sephardic melody sung in the synagogues by the local Jewry. In their Ladino tongue the folk song derived from this is called "Mi kerido mi amado". It would be really cool to hear your rendition of these two songs, perhaps in both Serbian and Ladino, similar to what you did with Katibim and Apo xeno topo.

Yes! One of my favorite Sephardi songs ❤ you should do a cover of dror Y’kira. it’s originally a Sephardic poem, but it’s often sung by the Yemenite Jews in their dialiect which is an older form of Hebrew, resembling how it may have been spoken during the second temple Period. It maintains a lot of the original Semitic sounds that are absent from modern Hebrew.

You may like that in Israel they speak the Sephardic pronunciation of Hebrew (Ashkenazi is used by many communities for prayers and Torah reading). The traditions of the Sephardim and Ashkenazi are closely intertwined. For example, in my school, mezuzahs are attached to jambs in both Ashkenazi and Sephardic. Some ethnic Ashkenazim adhere to the Sephardic tradition. For example, my friend's uncle, an Orthodox, goes to a Sephardic synagogue. (I translated through a translator for this text may look strange.)

I mean, it just depends on what circle of people you're around. Unfortunately, the Sephardic and Ashkenazi communities have had some isolation over the years, but that has started to change recently. Personally, I'm an Ashkenazi Jew who LOVES Sephardic music, and this is one of my favorites!

Dodi is related to the word Dod, but I think "lover" is a bad translation of Dodi because in English it has sexual connotations, while Dodi (at least in the ancient Biblical Hebrew this is written in) is NOT about a sexual relationship at all, but one of familial love.

@tharo4390 16 күн бұрын

@yeshevishman 16 күн бұрын

@@tharo4390 Generally. Again, it's weird because in the context of the original quote here, it IS using Dodi as a metaphor of G-d being like a "spouse", so there are some connotations of intimacy, but in general, the word connotates a familial closeness. That's the issue with ANY translation: you either lose direct meaning OR you lose implications - especially when translating poetic language. I mean, in THIS case, Dodi is more like a "pet name" one might have for a spouse, but it can ALSO be used as a "pet name" for any other close family member.

Le texte vient bien de Shir Hashirim, le cantique des cantiques de Salomon, chapitre 2 verset 8 (y a deux mots qui sont inversés mais le sens reste le même). À noter que dans la prononciation sepharade traditionelle, la lettre "ayin" se prononce comme en arabe. Par exemple sur le mot " ‘al" qui veut dire "sur" avec ayin devient une négation quand il commence avec un aleph, donc une attaque glotale. Pareil pour le mot hagba‘ot ! Autrement c'est génial, ça fait plaisir de voir une super version du repertoire juif et sefarade en plus réalisée avec beaucoup de tact et d'authenticité !

One of the songs I learnt in first grade. I think our pronunciation was slightly off though and we had no clue what we were singing about.😂 Beautiful rendition.

This song is indeed from "Song of Songs"/"Songs of Solomon" I can see if I can find the verse in the Christian bible if you're interested? Found it, chapter 2 verse 8

You've been revently doing new renditions of some previously uploaded pieces. Are we to expect more similar works? It would be cool to see yourevisit more.

This is really, really good! Do you think you would be open to try to do ancient Judean music? There is quite a lot of work on the musical style that was done by Abraham Zvi Idelsohn in the 20th century and the ancient hebrew pronunciation has been mostly conserved by the Yemenite jews. I think it could be very interesting to hear your interpretation of Judean music even if you end up opting for aramaic or greek instead of hebrew.
