Կը պոկեմ ես այսօրուայ քո թերթիկը, օրացոյց,
Խինդաշաղախ թախիծով, հաճոյքով կը պոկեմ ես,
Ինչպէս աշնան մէկ տերեւ ու վարդի թուփը ինչպէս
Կը պոկեմ ես այսօրուայ քո թերթիկը, օրացոյց։
Ես կը տեսնեմ անոր մէջ ժամերու վազքը վսեմ,
Մահացումներ կը տեսնեմ ու ծնունդները բազում,
Ես կ՚օրհնեմ անոնց մէջ գալիք մեր կեանքը լուսէ,
Այնքան վստահ, այնքան ջինջ, ինչպէս վճիտ երազի մէջ։

The land has put on winter.
The poplars are naked.
Rounded mountain tops
snow white,
peek above
black ploughed fields
on rolling hills.
Scattered obsidian glints
catch the low western sun,
sparkle like Christmas lights,
on and off, on and off,
as the road winds.
The spirit of mist
descends
far off.

«Ղարիպ, սիրտդ մի՛ նեղեր.
այս դժուար օրերս անցնի։
Շատ ղարիպ ի տուն դարձաւ,
մի՛ վախիր թէ քեզ չի լինի։»

As we approach the 10th anniversary of the Armenian Poetry Project, we pledge to continue researching and sharing the best Armenian poetry, using state of the art technology.
We remain the only website to provide audio and text RSS feeds of poems written by Armenians, as well as contemporary authors on Armenian subject matters.
We continue providing all internet surfers free access to the webpage and audio downloads 24/7/365 via RSS, Twitter and iTunes.
One thing that won't change will be APP's broad spectrum:
- gems by authors from the 19th century to the present
- introduction to out of print books
- an index of authors and countries
- experimental works by contemporary authors
- introduction of budding authors, including the APP/ASA poetry competition winners.
- different languages of expression, mostly Armenian, English or French, with translations provided whenever possible
This project is curated and produced by Lola Koundakjian in New York. To contact APP, send an email to: ArmenianPoetryProject[at]gmail[dot]com.
Please consider making a donation via Paypal.com by clicking on the button below. Your donations help maintain the audio website, buy books and replace equipment for the recordings as well as research in libraries.

Կեանքի պարը պարեցի,
ձեռքերս էին հայկական նազանքով,
հայեացքս հպարտ ուղղուած դէպի վեր,
ժպիտ մը գծուած՝ զեղչուած, իսկ աչքերս արցունքով խեղդուած.
ոտքերս մերթ արեւելեան, մերթ արեւմտեան, շուարած.
հոգիս օտար էր այս պարին,
գաղթականին ճանկռտուած պարն էր պարեցի:

Աշխարհը ծառերը զարդարեց։
Ծառս ու ես զիրար կը փնտռենք.

It is with great sadness that we relay the news of the death of author, editor and publisher Helene Pilibosian whose work appeared on numerous occasions in the pages of the Armenian Poetry Project. She died from complications after surgery for a brain tumor. Her son, Bob Sarkissian, will continue managing Ohan Press.
Helene was born in Boston, Massachusetts, to survivors of the Armenian Genocide. After graduating from Watertown High School, she attended Harvard University and graduated with a degree in humanities in 1960, before marrying Hagop Sarkissian. She was the first woman editor of The Armenian Mirror-Spectator. She was 82 years old and is survived by her husband, children and grandchildren.

There was a time when my family was happy.
Father played the violin on Sundays, and sunlight
filled the living room of my memory. Mother fried
eggplants in the kitchen. She hummed like Fairuz.
My brother read books on the Arabian Nights
on the red couch. I rolled on the Persian rug
until I felt dizzy. Then a bomb exploded near the souk.
Our windowpanes shattered. The mosque collapsed
on the bridge. The violin broke from the neck.
The eggplants charred. Brother bled on the couch.
I waited for the rug to magically rise
and take flight into the night.

Au-delà des sinistres galaxies
Spitak était son nom
La terre a grondé dans la ville-désert
Béante, affamée
Préciptée dans les abimes secoués
Des yeux noirs dans le ténèbres
Cherchant froidement Leninakan
Attachée au piere du tumulte sismique
Eux d'ici
Eux d'ailleurs
Enfants d'ici et d'ailleurs
Ils n'ont plus la force de crier
Leurs yeux fouillant la misère
de Kirovakan
Enfin sur un cheval de vent
