Prayer
Your body reminds me of summer’s midday
Color of your eyes reminds me of rainfall
When you're not here, life is no different than prison
Your tantrum reminds of bitterness of dungeon
تن تو ظهر تابستونو بیادم میاره
رنگ چشمهای تو بارونو بیادم میاره
وقتی نیستی زندگی فرقی با زندون نداره
قهر تو تلخی زندونو بیادم میاره
My prayer is to see you every day
From your lips, hearing “I love you” is a delight
من نمازم تو رو هر روز دیدنه
از لبت دوست دارم شنیدنه
You are gracious like the moment it rains
You are the blood in my veins every moment
You are tender like rose’s sleep, delicate like a dream
I am the one who’ll suffer without you
تو بزرگی مثل اون لحظه که بارون میزنه
تو همون خونی که هر لحظه تو رگهای منه
تو مثل خواب گل سرخی لطیفی مثل خواب
من همونم که اگه بی تو باشه جون میکنه
My prayer is to see you every day
From your lips, hearing “I love you” is a delight
You are like temptation of the hunt for a moth
You are like the passion to release a kite
You are always like a story full of adventures
You are like the joy of tucking in a doll
من نمازم تو رو هر روز دیدنه
از لبت دوست دارم شنیدنه
تو مثل وسوسه شکار یک شاپرکی
تو مثل شوق رها کردن یک بادبادکی
تو همیشه مثل یک قصه پر از حادثه ای
تو مثل شادی خواب کردن یک عروسکی
My prayer is to see you every day
From your lips, hearing “I love you” is a delight
You are pretty like the shapes clouds make
Once seen you, satiny flowers lose their bright
If men in stories knew you were here,
They’d trot on winged-horses to take you away
من نمازم تو رو هر روز دیدنه
از لبت دوست دارم شنیدنه
تو قشنگی مثل شکلهایی که ابرها میسازند
گلهای اطلسی از دیدن تو رنگ میبازند
اگه مردهای تو قصه بدونن که اینجایی
برای بردن تو با اسب تنلندر میتازند
My prayer is to see you every day
From your lips, hearing “I love you” is a delight
من نمازم تو رو هر روز دیدنه
از لبت دوست دارم شنیدنه

Gorgeous then and gorgeous now! Thank you!
Hi MPD,
Yeah! I made it here!
I will be back later. I can't finish my work, so I have to do the extra work at home. After that, I can visit IC and here!
Hi Yolanda, I am so glad to see you here.
Thank you Nazy for your kind comment.
I have always loved this poem/lyrics. There's something special with that. Thanks for the translation.
Thank you, MPD,
Sorry to come late!
Hi MPD,
This poem gives me goosebumps! Super romantic and sweet! So it is song lyrics? Is this song on you-tube? Thank you for translating it! It is a gem! I hope the song melody is as beautiful as the lyrics!
Yolanda, I don't know yet how to write sentences with breaks in between them, and to embed, or link to other websites. I am sure there are more versions of this song, by other singers, but here is at least one link to the song (posted by our own Bahram9821): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Hnx3DEpjWU
Hi MPD,
Thank you for the link. I listened to the song. It is a pretty song, but the singer's voice is not as good as "Omid's"! I have several Omid's songs on my I-pod. I hope Omid can sing this song if he has a chance! The poem is absolutely awesome! Thank you for sharing with us!
