Երգի խոսքեր
[Տուն 1] At the corner where the market road bends I set my little lantern out again The evening settles softly on the square And warm spice finds the waiting air [Տուն 2] My father taught me how to tend the pot My mother knew the herbs each garden brought Now every bowl is served the way they showed A family story shared along the road [Կրկներգ] Come, pull a chair, there’s room for you Rice and peas and pepper sauce, cooked through This little stall has carried us along Three generations, one familiar song [Տուն 3] A hungry couple laughs beside the stand A child gets plantain pressed into her hand I hear my grandfather in the way i say “Take your time; there’s plenty here today” [Կրկներգ] Come, pull a chair, there’s room for you Rice and peas and pepper sauce, cooked through This little stall has carried us along Three generations, one familiar song [Ելք] When the last plate’s gone and evening cools I fold the cloth and count the wooden stools Tomorrow, same old recipes, same flame And i’ll be here to greet you all again
