Khodat medani gole man, khodat medani Bayad bedani gole man, bayad bedani Asheqat astom gole man, asheqat astom Chera ba soyam tu shabe tanha nayayi
Tu az asemanha ba man sokhan go Tu az mayo jamha ba man sokhan go Tu yare zebaye man, tu isheqe tanhay man Taqate hijrane tu, degar nadaram
Tu bar qalbe zaram rahme nakardi Tu bar ashkohayam gahe nadidi Tu yare zebaye man, tu isheqe tanhay man Taqate hijrane tu, degar nadaram
متن اصلی
خودت ميدانی گل من، خودت ميدانی بايد بدانی گل من، بايد بدانی عاشقت هستم گل من، عاشقت هستم چرا بسويم تو شبی تنها نيايی
تو از آسمان ها با من سخن گو تو از می و جام ها با من سخن گو تو يار زيبای من، تو عشق تنهای من طاقت هجران تو، دگر ندارم
تو بر قلب زارم رحمی نکردی تو بر اشک هايم گاهی نديدي تو يار زيبای من، تو عشق تنهای من طاقت هجران تو، دگر ندارم
You Know, My Flower — a tender address using the floral endearment, 'gule man' (my flower), in the intimate mode that runs through the entire Persian lyric tradition.
About This Recording
You know, my flower — 'gule man', the most common of the Persian endearments, the beloved as the flower the whole poetry keeps returning to: beautiful, fragrant, seasonal, and, with the thorn, capable of wounding. The 'you know' that opens it assumes the beloved already understands what's coming, the love so plainly shown that saying it aloud is nearly redundant. And still it gets said, because in this tradition love wants the testimony of the spoken word.
