Chinamengeri! A Letter! Sinti and Roma Holocaust Poetry, by Countess Sigrid von Galen







Sinti and Roma Holocaust Poetry,

by Sigrid Countess von Galen

'Chinamengeri!, bita chavo.
A Letter!',
says the little boy.

For Violet Westcott, R.I.P.









'Chinamengeri!, bita chavo.
Chinamengeri avree nasvalengo k'er.
Gulo dai, na kek ja andray.
Bita chavo kekar biser leski saviben
palal lesko jau develesa,
sar li kekar paulay avree kai bangesko k'er.



A Letter!',
says the little boy.
A letter from the hospital.
Mummy, please, don't go in there.
He never forgot her smile for his farewell,
as she never came back from that hell.

 Tachiben - haiaviben - pokonyos

Truth - Judgement - justice of the peace
