Sheher Khali, Jodah Khali - Song Lyrics
Shahr Khali, jadah khali, koocha khali, khana khali
jam khali sufra khali, saghar'o paimana khali
Kooch kerda dasta dasta, aashna'yan'e dil'e bagh
Bagh khali baghcha khali, shakha khali, la'ana khali
Wa'ye az duniya ki yaar az yaar metarsad
Ghuncha'haye tashna az gulzaar metarsad
Ashiq az awaza'e didaar metarsad
Panja'e khamyagar'an az daar metarsad
Sheh'sawar az jadah'e hamwaar metarsad
In tabeeb az didaan'e bimaar metarsad
saat'ha beshkast o dard'e shayiran az hadh guzasht
saal'haye intezari bar man'o tu bar guzasht
Aashna na aashna shod, ta bale guftam bala shod
girya kardam nala kerdam, halqa bar her dar zadam
sang sang'e kulbayi wairana bar sar zadam
aab az aabi najumbid, khufta dar khabi najumbid
Shahr Khali, jadah khali, koocha khali, khana khali
jam khali sufra khali, saghar'o paimana khali
Wa'ye az duniya ki yaar az yaar metarsad
Ghuncha'haye tashna az gulzaar metarsad
Ashiq az awaza'e didaar metarsad
Panja'e khamyagar'an az daar metarsad
Sheh'sawar az jadah'e hamwaar metarsad
In tabeeb az didaan'e bimaar metarsad
chashma'ha khushkid 'o' darya khastagi ra dam girift
Asman afsana'e maa'ra ba dast'e kam girift
jam'ha joshi nadarad, ishq aghoshi nadarad
bar man'o bar nala'ha'yem hech kas goshi nadarad
Shahr Khali, jadah khali, koocha khali, khana khali
jam khali sufra khali, saghar'o paimana khali
Kooch kerda dasta dasta, aashna'yan'e dil'e bagh
Bagh khali baghcha khali, shakha khali, la'ana khali
Baz aa ta karwan'e rafta baz ayad
Baz aa ta dilbar'an'e naz naz ayad
Baz aa ta mutr'eb'o ahang'o saz ayad
pa gul' afshan'an nigare dilnawaz ayad
Baz aa ta dar'e hafiz sar andazem
Gul benafshan'im o mai dar saghar andazem
Sheher Khali, Jodah Khali - English Translation
Empty City, empty Paths, empty Streets and house is empty
Empty corolla, empty table - linen, empty cup and wine's empty
The familiar Acquaintances of this heart's garden have migrated in droves
Empty is garden, empty is bed of flowers, empty branches and the nest's empty
Alas world! Here even a friend is afraid of another friend.
The thirsty buds are scared of the marsh (rose-garden)
A lover is scared by fame of meeting (sight)
The hand (fingers) of a professional musician is scared of the strings
Night riders are scared of even (smooth) roads
And this physician is scared of seeing a patient
The tunes get broken and the pain of poets crossed its limitations
The years of waiting past Bad for me and you
Our acquaintances became unacquainted
As I said "yes" it became calamity
I cried I groaned, I whined on every door
I beat every brick of a ruined cottage on my head
Water didn't know of its depth, slept one didn't know of sleep
The eyes withered (dried) and the river stifled weariness (fatigue)
The sky underestimated our myth
The corolla's doesn't boil, Love doesn't have bosom
Nobody hears to me and to my whines
Come back so that gone caravan also return
Come back so that charming dears also get back
Come back so that minstrels, songs and tunes also return
The forelock sprayer's sweetheart of Orphic get back
Come back so that we could drop on Hafiz's (famous Iranian poet) door
Come so that we may strew roses and pour wine into the cup.
