David Charlin

12 year old singer-songwriter David Charlin lives with his family in Almaty.

The young performer won the televised talent competition Baqytty Bala; the chance to represent Kazakhstan at Junior Eurovision was his reward.

This is great news for David, as competing in Yerevan combines his three favourite things: singing, dancing, and travelling.

When he’s not hard at work, he also enjoys skiing, chess, drawing, tennis, and perfecting his drone flying skills - as he learns to shoot and edit aerial footage!

Lyrics of Jer-Ana (Mother Earth)

Like stars in the night sky
Sometimes we don’t know why
We can’t see the lights of the sun
But I know we have to try
See the good thing in our life
Feel the magic in our hearts

Our future got to be like
Fairytale with flashlights
We just have to make it right

Өмір әсем табиғатпен
Оны қадірле махаббатпен
Жүрекпен
Жер-ана сені де мені
Аялаған.
Біз аямаймыз сүймейміз
Неліктен?

Өмірде сынақ бар,
Өмірде сұрақ бар.
Ойламаймыз біз неге?

Ізгілікті қолда
Бірінші орында
Сүйе аламыз сонда.

Өмір әсем табиғатпен,
Оны қадірле махаббатпен.
Жүрекпен
Жер-ана сені де мені
Аялаған.
Біз аямаймыз сүймейміз
Неліктен?

Құшағыңды жай өмірге
Әр күні, әр сәтте
Жүрегің соқсын бірге

Өмір әсем табиғатпен
Оны қадірле махаббатпен.
Жүрекпен
Жер-ана сені де мені
Аялаған!
Біз аямаймыз, сүймейміз
Неліктен?
Like stars in the night sky
Sometimes we don’t know why
We can’t see the lights of the sun
But I know we have to try
See the good thing in our life
Feel the magic in our hearts

Our future got to be like
Fairytale with flashlights
We just have to make it right

Life’s beautiful with nature
Manage to cherish it with love
With an open heart.
Mother Earth, you and me
"I'm sorry."
We do not spare, do not love,
Why?

There are so many trials in life,
There are many questions in life.
Why don’t we think them over?

In the hands of virtue
In the first place
We can love it for sure there.

Life’s beautiful with nature
Manage to cherish it with love
With an open heart.
Mother Earth, you and me
"I'm sorry."
We do not spare, do not love,
Why?
Your embrace is just a life
Every day, every moment
Let your heart beat together

Life’s beautiful with nature
Manage to cherish it with love
With an open heart.
Mother Earth, you and me
"I'm sorry."
We do not spare, do not love,
Why?
