- Devla abstract "Devla (also called Devel, Dol and Del) is the name of God in the Romani religion. Devla was mistaken with the devil or Satan by the general public when the Romani tribes arrived in Europe during the 14th century. Devla is often mentioned in Roma folk songs.When Romani is translated into English, the word Devla is usually translated as "God" as shown here in this Romani language textbook:http://books.google.com/books?id=ENqAjucuu4MC&pg=PA196&lpg=PA196&dq=devla+roma&source=web&ots=j-bfQ07JWV&sig=zJB7LzzlNPgWQMbJ5-D-2AQCUSs. Romani Christians also refer to the Christian God as Devla or Del when they speak Romany, although these Romani words existed in traditional Romani folk beliefs and in the Romani language centuries before any Romani adopted Christianity.There is a common misconception among many Gadje (non-Roma persons) that Romani worship the devil. This is only because the word Devla sounds a lot like the word devil but is actually a false cognate. The Romani word for devil, or Satan, is actually "Beng".".
