Chadagan Country: Russia/Tuva Language: Tuvan Lyrics: Khöömejimni kagbazy, khönü chitpes chadaganym Khölchüng kara urug-bile, khöörezhiir chadaganym When I play my chadagan for you, darling you will know my love is true Joy will keep my chadagan in tune, when I play my chadagan for you Chadagan, my chadagan, chadagan, my chadagan. More info: A song from the Smithsonian Folkways recording, Musics of the Soviet Union, listed as “Song from Khomeizhi." The chadagan is a Tuvan instrument resembling a zither.
