Melody/Lyrics

Komitas Vardapet wrote this adaptation of the Lord’s Prayer for children in 1915 upon his return from exile. At one of the most tragic times in the history of our people, children prayed to God begging Him to save their parents and all the children in the world. This is the last song ever written by Komitas.
