Lyric

PERSIAN

 

سر اومد زمستون

سر اومد زمستون، شکفته بهارون

گل سرخ خورشید باز اومد و شب شد گریزون

کوه‌ها لاله‌زارن، لاله‌ها بیدارن

تو کوه‌ها دارن گل گل گل آفتابو می‌کارن

 

توی کوهستون، دلش بیداره

تفنگ و گل و گندم، داره می‌آره

توی سینه‌اش جان جان جان

یه جنگل ستاره داره، جان جان، یه جنگل ستاره داره

 

لبش خنده نور، دلش شعله شور

صداش چشمه و یادش آهوی جنگل دور

توی کوهستون، دلش بیداره

تفنگ و گل و گندم، داره می‌آره

 

توی کوهستون، دلش بیداره

تفنگ و گل و گندم، داره می‌آره

توی سینه‌اش جان جان جان

یه جنگل ستاره داره، جان جان، یه جنگل ستاره داره

 

سعید سلطان‌پور

ENGLISH

 

Winter is over, spring is blossoming

The crimson flower of the sun opened and the night fleed

The mountains are fields of tulips, the tulips are awake

They are sowing the sunshine in the mountains flower by flower

 

In the mountains, his heart is awake

He is bringing guns, wheat and flowers

In his heart life, life, life

He has a forest of stars, a forest of stars

 His lips the smile of light

His heart the flame of passion

His voice a lake, his memory a deer in a faraway forest

 In the mountains, his heart is awake

He is bringing guns, wheat and flowers

In his heart life, life, life

He has a forest of stars, a forest of stars

 Saeed Soltanpour
