Shireen - UMAI
Directed by Lynette Darleen van der Giessen
Director of Photography: Daphyd Sens
UMAI appears on Shireen's first full-length album MATRIARCH, which released on 3.11.17.
After months of luminous studio recording, filming, editing, reviewing, some more editing, finetuning, and having some serious fun, we proudly present our new music video of UMAI! It is the first release of our upcoming album, which will take some more time, recording and editing. Feel free to share, and keep checking us out! Many thanks to our fantastic crew and all our extras for helping us make this happen!
Lyrics:
If I would give you my clear skies, If I would give you all golden fields of grain.
Strong legs, a tireless heart. An ocean as still as a lake.
Would you still worship and pray, and not forget my name: "Umai".
Instead I’ll give you my storm, I’ll give you my hail.
I will tear out trees, sweep up the seas and distroy your fields.
And you’ll reach for the sky, but in this mud you’ll die.
And you will pray, when lightning illuminates your face.
If you are a sweet child. Never scream to get your way.
I will forget you lying there. I’ll sleep for a million days,
and not hear your prayers: “Umai”.
Instead I’ll give you my storm, I’ll give you my hail.
I will tear out trees, sweep up the seas and distroy your fields.
And you’ll reach for the sky, but in this mud you’ll die.
And you will pray, when lightning illuminates your face.
You will pray: “Umai”.

"Umay Ana" (Mother Umay) was the chief goddess of our ancestors, the ancient, pre-Islamic Shamanistic Turks. She was the protector of children. Beautiful song. Greetings from Türkiye.

Okay, be real with me, how does one walk on dinosaur-heeled boots on a forest floor?! The outfit is to die for... and the song, mesmerizing!

I literally spent the last two and a half hours trying to find this song, I listened to it more than a year ago, and it just came to my mind, but the only thing I could remember is that the name of the song started with U and it had a female vocalist.
After two hours and some minutes I remembered that the song was the name of a deity, so it started the quest to find the name of deities that start with U, around 20 minutes reading lots of pages on the web, my eyes just glanced at >Umai<.
I think I've never been so happy for finding a goddess name before.

Fun fact: Umay (Umai, Umaj, Ума́й) is a goddess (mother earth) in turkish mythology. I dont know whether the artist intentionally chose that name or not but it is well accurate :)

Interesting choice of a nickname and song's name.
Both, Umai and Shereen are words existing in Turkic languages, i.e. Kyrgyz, Kazakh, Turkish etc.
Kyrgyz people would believe that Umai is a goddess, who protects women and children. And "shireen" is translated as "juice; sweet; nice".

The sheer amount of different instruments used in this along with the throat singing in the background is just amazing.

Those soaring Celtic medieval sounds and remarkable vocals. This is most elevating. Wonderful. Bravo.

The problem with society today is that no one drinks from the skulls of their enemies any more.

I love this music video, it's so powerful. A powerful goddess of both kindness and wrath punishing the ungrateful. I feel like the music video shows her not at her full power, but merely a fraction of it to make the ones going against her learn fear before they beg for forgiveness. This is such a cool song.

Shireen! I found you years before Heilung. While I like Heilung. Matriarch is the only Album that is forever on my playlist. Shireen is the Earth Goddess. Never Suppress her, she is life. :) I understand how REAL life works. Just know, you have a following who support the artistry. :) I hope you come back some day. But if you don't. That is okay too, just know I for one cherish what you gave. :) Thank you very much. Matriarch changed my life. Thank you.
