“Mahe Man Emshab”

Artist: Ahmad Wali. Rough Translation: “My love, the light of my eye. What are you hiding from? What are you running from? You came for a hit and run, and you successfully turned my whole world upside down. I was the one who held the glass mirror up to you, and told you to look inside of yourself. You looked, and for once you were stunned by the immense beauty you found in yourself. You closed your eyes, my love, and you were oblivious to the fact that I was relaxed and content and didn’t have any troubles or worries. Now, because of the pain of your separation, I can never sleep peacefully for the rest of my life.”
