Not that I know of online, but you can listen to it: http://www.crestinortodox.ro/cantari-bisericesti-audio-mp3/sfanta-liturghie-limba-tiganeasca/ |

Question a friend, perhaps he did not do it; but if he did anything so that he may do it no more.
A hasty quarrel kindles fire,
and urgent strife sheds blood.
If you blow on a spark, it will glow;
if you spit on it, it will be put out;
and both come out of your mouth

In the 1970's there was a cheesy Hollywood movie titled "King of the Gypsies." http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077807/ A little bit of Orthodox trivia is in order. At the time, now Metropolitan Nicholas of ACROD was the pastor of St. Nicholas Orthodox Church located on 2nd Avenue in the East Village of New York City. A funeral scene was shot at the church and the then-Father Nicholas had an uncredited role as the priest presiding at the funeral. I think that the burial scenes were shot across the East River at a cemetery in Linden, NJ where there is a large Roma section. Three bar crosses are evident there in abundance. The Roma section is near the St. Nicholas and St. Mary Orthodox Section (Elizabeth and Bayonne, NJ parishes) where all of my grandparents, my brother and many family members are now buried. The Roma families would gather on Sundays and picnic on summer Sunday afternoons by the graves of their family. When we would take my grandfather to visit the family graves after liturgy, we would always pass through the Roma section and my grandfather would always say the same thing in Rusyn and laugh. I am not sure what he said, but I suspect it wasn't nice. Anyway, the Orthodox Church in Slovakia is to be commended for its work with Roma orphans at its orphanage in Medzilaborce, the home town of the family of the artist Andy Warhol near the Ukrainian border. |

If the Roma appeared in Europe around 500 CE, then that would be only a hundred years after the Huns had arrived. Did the Roma somehow associate themselves with the Huns? Romany Were European 500 Years Earlier Than Previously ThoughtLONDON — The Romany people constitute Europe’s largest and, arguably, now its most persecuted minority. A new genetic study published this week suggests their ancestors arrived in Europe from northwestern India in a single wave around 1,500 years ago, half a millennium earlier than previously thought. The international authors of the peer-reviewed paper in Current Biology journal said their study is the most comprehensive ever of the demographic history of the Romany. They said it reveals the origins of a people who “constitute a mosaic of languages, religions, and lifestyles while sharing a distinct social heritage.” Scientific American noted that earlier studies of the Romany language and cursory analysis of genetic patterns had determined India was the group’s place of origin. But the new study points to a single migration from northwestern India around 500 CE. |

The gypsy community are now turning to Protestant churches such as the light and light missions in the UK.They feel they are not wanted or have nothing to again from orthodoxy.I feel the church has a duty for God to minester the truth faith of Christ to my people.
Yours in Christ

The Gypsies are a people whose history has been often linked to the Orthodox Church over the last 700 years at least, but possibly more.
Cool. I didn't know that. AFAIK Finnish gypsies tend to be Pentecostals. |

I like the chanting. I wonder if it's in a certain dialect. I seem to remember a gypsy friend of mine told me there were several dialects even in Romania.

It's probably Vlach Romany, since the recording was made in Romania by Romanians.

Cool. I didn't know that. AFAIK Finnish gypsies tend to be Pentecostals. That's a newer trend for sure. It also exists in Romania to an extent that's quite visible, but historically the Gypsies have adopted the religion of the majority population . So where they lived with the Orthodox Romanians they were and still are, for the most part, Orthodox. Although oftentimes they suffer all sorts of discrimination and prejudice even from the clergy. |
