All the poems wasted by the sea
Cannot portray the meaning 
Of an old and ragged memory 
Elegantly bleeding
Through the fabric of our time --
Something that was never mine
Begging the question,
Is it a crime?

I can feel the summer going
So long awaited and so quick to fade
Now the cold winds are returning
To embrace this place of grace
To embrace this place of grace
To erase this place

I'm waiting for the lights to change
I'm waiting for that cloud
To stretch itself all over my sky
And pour it out loud
I'm waiting for the starter kick
I'm waiting for that slide
That takes me far as we speak
That wants to be my guide
I'm waiting for the master note to take me 

As long as we go on
As long as we go on
As long as we go on
As long as we go
As long as we go on
As long as we go on
As long as we go on
As long as we go

I can tell the summer's going
So long awaited and so quick to fade
Now the cold winds are returning
To embrace this place of grace
To embrace this place of grace
To erase this place

Summer Going

Discription & Biography

'Mara' is Zazaki, which is one of the oldest native languages in the Middle East. It means BY US.

Mara draws from the rich treasure of traditional Kurdish songs. They express them anew in their own particular way by contrasting classical and contemporary music. Presented in a way only women can sing them these songs turn into a great experience.

Sakina
SAKINA began her career self taught, as an autodidact, before she received professional education and voice training.
In the 90′s she was a member of the Mesopotamian Culture Centre, a Kurdish artists association based in Istanbul but acting throughout all of Turkey. Its members suffered various reprisals by the government because of their Kurdish lyrics. Some of them paid their artistic dedication with their lives.
During this time she organized many (due to the government led forbiddance of the Kurdish language until the late 90s) illegal concerts, until eventually she was forced to flee.
She continued her work in Armenia, Syria and Kurdish-Irak.
Currently she is living in Vienna.
Since 2008 she has become increasingly involved with human rights issues in particular women’s rights issues.
She views her music as a way portraying the life of people in the Kurdish regions. She realizes this with a sensitive performance of striking melodies by which suffering and melancholy, courage for life and yearning become palpable.

Naze Isxan
Naze Isxan began to play piano at the age of six. The pianist graduated from the Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatory in Krasnodar as a concertmaster and music teacher. Since the end of the nineties, she has given concerts in Russia at first and since 2001 she also appears on a regular basis in other European countries. 
She has a passion for Kurdish music that she would like to introduce to a wider non-Kurdish audience in her concerts. Therefore, she also arranged traditional Kurdish melodies for piano and published the first Kurdish music book for piano in 2004 (Evina Kurdistane - Bona Pianoforte).

Nure Dlovani
Nure Dlovani is a solo violinist who also works as a teacher for violin and piano. She received her professional education at the conservatories in Moscow, Erevan, and Frankfurt. 
Her repertory is rich and comprises classical music and pop as well as sound tracks or crossover performances with the New Philharmonics in Frankfurt. She also works with a variety of well-known Kurdish musicians both in the studio and as a solo violinist in live concerts.

TRÎO MARA
Trîo Mara ku ji jinan pêk tê û stranên jinan bi înstrumentên klasîk ên rojava û teknîkên deng ê gelerî ji nu ve sirove dike, di kemanê de ji Nurê Dilovanî, di piyanoyê de ji Nazê Îsxan, di stranbêjî de ji Sakîna pêk tê. Rewîtiya Trîo Mara ya mûzîkê berê salek û nîv destpê kir. 
“MARA” bi zaravêya zimanê Kurdî Kirmanckî de tê wateya “Ji Me”. Gelek zimanên din ên Rojhilata Navîn de pêyva “ma” pêyvêk mê ye. Bi Kirmanckî û Ermenîkî tê wateya dê. Mara bi Erebî tê wateya Jin. 
Trîo Mara li keleka sê zaravên zimanê Kurdî, bi Tirkî, bi Ermenîkî û bi Azerî jî stranan dibeje. Endamên Trîo Mara bawer dikin ku sînorên ku deshilatdaran di nava gelande ava kirine bi rêya mûzîkê ku bi xwe zimanek taybete û herkes dikare tê bigîhe ji holê radibin. Bi israrek mezin divê mirov bi zimanê astiyane ya mûzîkê bi pêyîve. 
Her sê hunermendên jin, di stranên xwe de qasê trajedîya gelê Kurd û jinan, heman demê, evîn, sahî û cosî, ês û janên civata xwe jî dixwazin bînin ziman. Hember nêrînên deshilatdar ya zîhniyeta mêran dixwazin bibin dengê jinên ku naxwazin bê deng bimînin. 
Stranên TRÎO MARA ji me wek bêhnek, deng û awazek û rîtmek, ji were bibin xelat. Em hêvîdarin ku hin caran we li serê çiyayên bilind û asîde, hin caran li keleka çemên dîn û har diherikin de, hin caran dêstên bê dawî de derxînin rewîtiyêk xwes ê bi mûzikê re.

TRIO MARA
Kadinlardan olusan, kadinlar tarafindan söylenmis sarkilari klasik bati müzigi enstrümanlari ve geleneksel ses teknikleriyle yeniden yorumlayan TRIO MARA, kemanda Nurê Dilovanî, piyanoda Nazê Îsxan, vokalde de Sakîna'nin yer aldigi bir üçlü olarak müzikal yolculuguna bir seneyi askin bir süre önce basladi.
MARA, Ortadogu’nun kadim dillerinden biri olan Kürtçe’nin Kirmanckî lehçesinde “Bizden„ anlamina gelirken, Ortadogu dillerinin birçogunda da birbirine yakin disil anlamlar tasir. Ma, Ermenice ve Kirmanckî'de köken olarak ana anlamina gelir. Ayrica Arapça'da MARA kadin demektir. 
Kürtçe'nin Kurmancî, Kirmanckî ve Soranî lehçelerinin yanisira, Türkçe, Azerice ve Ermenice sarkilar da seslendiren TRIO MARA, halklarin kültürleri arasinda olusan yapay sinirlarin ortak bir dil olan müzik yoluyla anlamsiz kilinabilecegine ve israrla müzigin barisçil diliyle konusmak gerektigine inaniyor. 
Yüzyillardir savaslarin, kanin, gözyasi ve acinin dinmek bilmedigi Kürdistan’dan gelen TRIO MARA üyeleri, repertuarlarinda kadinlarin ve halklarin trajedilerini yansitan sarkilar kadar, asklarini, coskularini, yasam biçimlerini yansitan sarkilara da yer veriyor. 
TRIO MARA, egemen bakis açilari ve yargilari karsisinda susmayan kadinlarin sesi olmayi amaçliyor. 
TRIO MARA sarkilari bizden size bir nefes, bir ses, bir ritm olarak gelsin. Kah vahsi dag baslarinda, kah coskun irmak kenarlarinda, kah uçsuz bucaksiz ovalarda, müzikle güzel bir yolculuga çikmaniz dilegiyle.

bırakalım düşsün kuyuya yusuf.
