Kristin Lems: Song Lyrics

Disc One: Kashke

(Kristin Lems)
2007-07-15
words and music by "Aref," the Iranian musician
A song of hope....Persian style. The hopes are universal.
This song is in Persian - I will give a rough rendering:

I wish hearts were never broken, that eyes were never wet from tears, that the clouds would pull aside and show the stars

I wish there were no war, selfishness, no homesickness
I wish lovers were never separated from each other

Oh God! in this life a person can get tired of struggling, in the way of lovers, one can be extinguished...

I wish there were no pain, no tears, no sighs
That lovers were never parted from each other
