Lyrics: Jore
Music: Suno

Tehkääs mulle tuoli
joss'on sellainenkin puoli
että siihen kun vain istuu
niin muistot komistuu

Tehkääs mulle sohva
jossa olis kiinni kahva
josta kahvasta voi vääntää
niin kaikki onnistuu

Tehkääs mulle luola
jossa maistuu elon suola
jonne piiloutumaan pystyy
kun kaikki ahdistaa

Tehkääs mulle taulu
josta kuuluu läpi laulu
jossa laulussa on vinkki
miten tulee rakastaa

Tehkääs mulle koppa
josta löytyy suuri soppa
josta ravintoa riittää
kai ihan kelle vaan

Älkää tehkö pöytää
jonka äärestä voi löytää
kaikki 'ettekö te tiedä
kuka olen' -tyypit maan

Tehkää mulle talo
josta loistaa pieni valo
jonka oveen koputtamaan
aina käydä uskaltaa

Tehkää mulle lato
jonne mahtuu sulkasato
niiden vapaudenkyyhkyjen
jotka laulaa haluaa

Tehkää mulle talo - Jore w/Suno

This album is a heartfelt musical journey dedicated to the people of Cyprus and the dream of unity on one island. Blending Greek Cypriot, Turkish Cypriot, and the other ethnic groups that shape Cyprus, along international influences, it weaves together traditional melodies, peace songs, and instrumental works to create a cross-cultural tapestry of hope, memory, and togetherness.

The opening track, “Unite (3 Languages)”, sets the tone with a call for harmony across the divide. From the Cypriot folk essence of “Psintri Vasilicha” and “Ehe Via Panagia” (from Constantinople) to the deeply reflective “San Ton Metanasti” (“Like a refugee on your own land”), the album captures both the pain of displacement and the longing for belonging.

Nature and identity shine in “Hrisso Brasino Filo” (“The golden-green tree of Cyprus”), a symbol of the island’s beauty, while resilience is echoed through the world-famous protest song “Bella Ciao,” here sung in Turkish. Instrumental gems like “Scherzo Petahto” (a dance piece) and “Ora Kali” (a traditional wedding song) bring moments of joy and festivity.

International classics are honored as well, with the moving “Schindler’s List” theme—widely recognized as a song of peace—and the serene “Meditation” by Massenet, adding a universal dimension of reflection and healing.

The journey closes with “Eshen Vereve / Dillirga,” a duet of Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot folk traditions intertwined, symbolizing shared roots and the possibility of reconciliation.

Each track speaks to Cyprus’s cultural richness and the enduring desire for peace. This album is not just music—it is a bridge, a dedication to unity, and a tribute to those who believe in living together as one.
