about

Epic table song from Guria. Source variant by Anton, Davit and Meliton Dumbadze. Transcribed by Dmitri Araqishvili in Ozurgeti in 1903.
The tune is reminiscent of a Gurian work song, “Khelkhvavi”
The Alipasha mentioned in the song was a real historical personnage, who, during the war in 1877-1878 betrayed the Russian government and defected to the Ottoman side.

Bass - Demetre Kiria.

lyrics

Alipasha gvighalat’a chagviqvana K’virik’etshi

Alipasha betrayed us and brought us to K’virik’eti
