"The pair dance of a man and a woman has a ritual nature. Scholars track it down to Chechen cosmology — the sun and fertility worship. The Chechen myth says: The man and woman turned into Sun and Moon, and Sun cannot catch up with Moon to this day. The male dancer pursues the woman in circles to repeat Sun’s route in pursuance of Moon.

The man holds his arms spread in a cruciform position to symbolize the rising and setting sun. His bent arm with the hand pressed to his chest, the other arm outstretched to the side, repeat the swastika, which designates the sun in its movement. When he tiptoes with arms lifted above his head, the man personifies the sun in the zenith. He embraces his partner’s waist without touching her to depict lunar eclipse."

Chechen lullaby by Hava Tashaeva

Go to sleep my little baby

The time to rest has come

Angels are all around you

To kiss you and play with you they’ve come

My pretty one, my little one

Let yourself fall into a sweet sleep

Let your little body rest

I miss looking at the "Chechen" tag and seeing the majority of posts based on the beautiful culture and nothing else.

Nevertheless, we will always be Chechen and proud!

Snakes of Eden - Out of Grozny

Lyrics:

I cannot say a word so I'll write my story down

Of walking on my comrades' bodies lying on the ground

Across the Russian minefield they saved us with their lives

"Meet you in paradise" they shouted as they died

Allah Akbar

Mohammed walks beside me

In the winter out of Grozny

Meet you in paradise

We bribed the Russian general one hundred thousand cash

Our recon team went out ahead but they never made it back

Commander Shamil Basaev said we'll go out ahead

The first explosion took his leg and left three commanders dead

Allah Akbar

Mohammed walks beside me

In the winter out of Grozny

Meet you in paradise

As the first mines went off and the wind began to blow

Their artillery shells and rockets screamed down into our ranks

So many brave mujahideen we left out on the snow

We didn't want to leave them there, I didn't want to go

Allah Akbar 

Mohammed walks beside me

In the winter out of Grozny

Meet you in paradise

Allah Akbar 

Mohammed walks beside me

In the winter out of Grozny

Meet you in paradise

The villagers of Alxan-Kala took the wounded in their homes

No medicines, no pain killers for the hacksaw cutting bones

Doctor Malika Sabieva turned away from the wounded men

We don't know what to do, we have nothing for them

Allah Akbar

Mohammed walks beside me

In the winter out of Grozny

Meet you in paradise
