[Intro – 12 seconds]

[Slow rubab solo, soft harmonium, no vocals]

[Verse 1 – Soft, intimate male vocal]

ای رفته ز چشمم، ز دلم دور نگردی

Ey rafte ze cheshmam, ze delam door nagardi

O you who left my sight, may you not be far from my heart

در سینهٔ خاموش من، رنج ابدی

Dar sine-ye khamoosh-e man, ranj-e abadi

In my silent chest, an eternal pain

من سوختم و نام تو را لب نگشودم

Man sokhtam o nam-e to ra lab nagshoodam

I burned, but did not utter your name

تا کس نکند قصهٔ این عشق، شنیدی

Ta kas nakone ghesse-ye in eshgh, shenidi?

So that no one would hear the story of this love, did you hear?

[Instrumental Response – Rubab and harmonium]

[Verse 2 – More emotional, longer vocal phrases]

شب آمد و با یاد تو هم‌صحبت گشتم

Shab amad o ba yad-e to ham-sohbat gashtam

Night came, and I became a companion to your memory

ای کاش تو هم حال دل من می‌شنیدی

Ey kash to ham hal-e del-e man mishnidi

If only you too would hear the state of my heart

گفتند فراموش کن آن چشم سیاهت

Goftand faramoosh kon an cheshm-e siyahat

They said, forget those black eyes of yours

گفتم که مگر جان ز تن خویش بریدی؟

Goftam ke magar jan ze tan-e khish boridi?

I said, 'Unless you cut your own soul from your body?'

[Chorus – Powerful, expressive, sustained notes]

ای وای، اگر عشق همین سوختن ماست

Ey vay, agar eshgh hamin sokhtan-e mast

Alas, if love is just this burning of ours

این آتش جان‌سوز، چرا قسمت ماست؟

In atash-e jan-sooz, chera ghesmat-e mast?

Why is this soul-burning fire our fate?

تو دور شدی، لیک ندانستی ای جان

To door shodi, leyk nadanesti ey jan

You went far, but you didn't know, my dear

هر جای جهانم، اثر پای تو با ماست

Har jay-e jahanam, asar-e pay-e to ba mast

Wherever I am in the world, the trace of your steps is with us

[Instrumental Interlude – 12 seconds]

[Expressive rubab solo, harmonium, gentle tabla]

[Final Verse – Quiet and sorrowful]

نه شکوه ز تو دارم و نه شکوه ز تقدیر

Na shekve ze to daram o na shekve ze taghdir

I have no complaint from you, nor complaint from destiny

این سینه گواه است که عشق آخر ماست

In sine govah ast ke eshgh akhar-e mast

This chest is witness that love is our end

[Outro – Slow rubab, soft harmonium]

[One long, gentle vocal phrase, then instruments fade out]

Lines explained

“من سوختم و نام تو را لب نگشودم”

Man sokhtam o nam-e to ra lab nagshoodam

I burned, but did not utter your name

The singer endured the pain of love silently, not even speaking the beloved's name, to protect the sanctity or secrecy of their affection.

“گفتم که مگر جان ز تن خویش بریدی؟”

Goftam ke magar jan ze tan-e khish boridi?

I said, 'Unless you cut your own soul from your body?'

This rhetorical question emphasizes the impossibility of forgetting the beloved, comparing it to the vital act of separating one's soul from their body.

“هر جای جهانم، اثر پای تو با ماست”

Har jay-e jahanam, asar-e pay-e to ba mast

Wherever I am in the world, the trace of your steps is with us

Despite physical separation, the beloved's presence is felt everywhere, indicating a profound and inescapable connection.
