Sami Yusuf - Lovers lyrics
[Sami Yusuf - Lovers lyrics]
Amad gahe waṣlo leqa az āsemān āmad nedā
Key mahrūyān aṣ-ṣalā
O lovers, O lovers
the time of union and meeting has come
A calling from Heaven proclaimed
"Moon-faced ones, it is time to pray!"
Ḥay Allāh, Hu Allāh, Yā Allāh
Ey sarkhoshān, Ey sarkhoshān
Amad ṭarab dāman keshan
Begrefte ma zanjīre ū begrefte ū dāmāne mā
O divinely intoxicated ones
The joyously whirling One has arrived
The chains of His curls have captured us and
The yearning of our hearts have captured Him
Amad sharābe ātashīn
Ey Dīvе gham konjī neshīn
Ey jane marg-andīsh ro ey sāqīye bāqī darā
Thе fiery wine has come, demon of grief
Off to a corner!
Leave O death-pondering soul
O immortal Saqi, come through!
Ey haft gardūn maste to
Mā mohreyi dar daste to
Ey haste mā az haste to
Dar ṣad hezārān marḥabā
O by whom the seven vaults are enraptured
We are but a bead in your hands
Our being is by your being, a thousand hails!
Ey bānge naye khosh-samar
Dar bānge to ṭa’me shekar
Āyad marā sham-o sahar az bānge to būye vafā
O sound of the reed with sweet stories
In your sound is the taste of sugar
From your sound
Comes the fragrance of fidelity
Day and night! Bāre degar āghāz kon
Ān pardehā rā sāz kon
Bar jomle khūbān nāz kon
Ey Āftābe khosh leqā
Begin once more and tune those notes!
Display your charm to the good souls
O fair-faced sun!
