Ej mu dad, mi daj,
\nXa\u010dkir jaga.
\nMe kana zaraz,
\nZaraz merava.
\nKedi me merava,
\n\u0160un so phenava,
\nKe trudnes man po grobus
\nNa janen.
\nBet ku mu grobus
\nGren kheljakiren.
\nU vini pjen
\nTe \u0161ljanki phagiren.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
O father, o mother,
\nLight fires.
\nNow, immediately.
\nInnediately, I\u2019ll die.
\nWhen I\u2019ll die,
\nListen to what I say.
\nWith sorrow, to my grave
\nDon\u2019t bring me.
\nBut on my grave
\nLet the horse dance
\nDrink wines
\nAnd break the glasses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Lev worked all his life with and for Rroma. Himself a Rrom (Litovsko) he was one of the best specialists on Rromanes and published numerous articles and a few books. Besides all dialects of Rromanes, he also spoke most European languages and a few beyond. He initially studied at Moscow University and he lastly works as a senior researcher in the Russian Institute for the preservation of the cultural and natural heritage in Moscow, and was the institute’s specialist for Rroma and their culture. He was member of the board of the Rroma Foundation from 1992 until 2005, and continued to work for the Foundation until his death. He also had long lasting cooperation with Romano Centro in Austria and with Moses Heinschink especially, as well as with the Institute of Language Science of the University of Graz, especially with Prof. Dieter Halwachs.He was a pioneer in using the language, Rromanes, as a source of history and as a tool to trace the migration of the Rroma from India to Europe. His historical linguistic theories were vindicated by more recent means in several genetic studies telling the same story: Rroma have been in Europe for over a thousand years, are all from the very same migration, and have remained remarkably united in spite of having spread all over the continent.<\/p>\n
