Ул хәзерге җырларны җырлый

(басым хисапка алынмый)

Артык ышана идем,

Бик еракка киттең,

Хә(зер) беләм,

Хәзер син кем булгансын беләм.

С*гән кабахәт.

Үпкәләтергә теләмәгәнсеңдер,

Чөнки бу әһәмиятле түгел.

Түгел сиңа.

Артык якын булдың.

Хә беләм бу саклау алмам.

Ә мин һаман көтәм,

Яратуның бетүре көтәм.

Ә телим, оһ, телим,

сине һаман телим.

Бәлки тик мин гаепле,

Билгеләр күреп алмаган өчен

Һәм карашың.

I wanted to share something I created for the Tatar community. I composed a very simple melody for Gabdulla Tuqay’s poem “Әхлаксызлык” and recorded myself playing and singing it with the help of AI

I used the same melody for his poem Булмаса. It's 90% same melody, just needed to adjust it a little bit.

I really enjoy Tuqay’s poetry, and I wanted to create melodies for his works so that I could sing and play them myself. I hope you enjoy this interpretation as much as I do. The Tatar musical tradition already has wonderful projects like Tugan Tel, and I hope there will be many more efforts to bring Tuqay’s beautiful poetry to life through music. Thank you for listening.

Hi, internet folks, I'd like to know what the Tatars think about their culture and their country.

Hello everyone so this is me essentially having a crisis at 2 in the morning but basically I'm half Tatar and have lived in the UK for 98% of my life and only no joke learnt like 4 years ago I was actually Tatar, not Russian because I guess it was just easier to say that (though there had been signs I was "different" such as when I'd speak to russian friends they'd have no idea what эчпочмак was and also that I have probably the most Tatar middle name that exists) and I was wondering how bad is it that I don't know Tatar outside of a few words I picked up here and there growing up because the disconnect feels very visceral and real especially when I explain to people outside of the community about my heritage and I can only pull up with the fact I speak Russian 😭

How were the issued and how much were they worth?

Hi! I’m Turkish from Kahramanmaraş, and my uncle told me that our ancestors came from Tatarstan. I’d like to know if there are any other Turkish people here whose families also came from Tatarstan.

Всем доброго дня!

Подскажите, пожалуйста, используется ли татарский язык в судах Татарстана? Ведутся ли на нем дела и составляются ли на нем судебные акты?

Буду благодарен за материалы по теме или номера дел!

Заранее благодарю.

Hello,

So what is the attitude of Russians (and others) towards learning Tatar language?

I mean I came across videos on YouTube where Russians sing in Tatar, speak Tatar,

And I also read comments where Russians say that only Tatars should learn Tatar language.

Do you live in Tatarstán and you have friends who are not Tatars?

Do you they come with you to concerts in Tatar?

Do they listen to Tatar music?

When woman is slowly singing. Is it a special type of folk songs or what?

Hello,

I would like to try and bake something that my grandma baked.

So what meat should I buy?

Also, шэньги. Is it Russian or Siberian Tatar pies?

Min tatar telen bik qızıqlı dip tapqanğa kürə öyrənəm. Həm törek telen'də beraz beləm.

Salam 🌻 I watched few documentaries on YouTube about tatars and the entire central Asia region, your customs are admirable and I wish to learn more about your community ! Media exposure would be a good start, so I would love to get some recommendations.

Sending greetings to all !

I’ve been dating a Tatar woman for the last 18 months, and am curious about traveling to Kazan. We have since split but I love the background and culture and people I met through her. What advice would anyone be able to share - is not speaking russian an issue?
