Por Kon Pyala Raپر کن پیاله را
Awara (Wanderer) opened the golden period of Zahir's output, demonstrating a new assurance in his production choices. The album blended Pashto folk melodies with Dari verse and introduced more prominent electric bass and percussion patterns influenced by Indian film music. The wanderer motif ran through the lyrics as a metaphor for both romantic longing and a growing sense of cultural displacement that resonated deeply with Afghan listeners far from home.

Barayam Gerya Kon Emshabبرایم گریه کن امشب
Namekhaham Tura Aye Dukhtنمیخواهم ترا ای دخت
Ba Sange Ghum Zade Paymana Am Raبه سنگ غم زده پیمانه
Guzasht Anka Tu Sar Khail Delbaranگذشت آنکه تو سرخیل دلبران
Gah Dar Aghosh Ein Gah Dar Aghosh Aanگاه در آغوش این
Az Dastat Feghan Feghan Daramاز دستت فغان فغان دارم
Bar Khatera Azada Ghubariبر خاطره آزاده غباری
Keestam Man Rahnawardکیستم من راهنورد
Who Am I, a Traveler — the self-questioning of the perpetual wanderer, identity located in movement rather than place. Love as the condition that makes all fixed home impossible.
Shekast Ahde Manشکست عهد من
Bahar Man Sar Az Nawبهار من سر از نو
Maranjan Delam Ra Keمرنجان دلم را که
Maham Ze Rah Raseed Waliماهم ز راه رسید
Emshab Ba Yade Roye Tuامشب به یاد روی تو
Aye Bekhabar Az Darde Manای بیخبر از درد من
Way Baran Baranوای باران باران
Oh Rain, Rain — a folk invocation of rain, the beloved figured as the rain that restores the parched earth. One of his most direct connections to the Afghan natural world.
