Shahram Nazeri - بی‌قرار (Bi Gharār) (English translation)

Persian

Original lyrics

بی‌قرار

در هوایت بی قرارم، بی قرارم ڕوز و شب

سر زکویت برندارم، برندارم ڕوز وشب

جان ڕوز و، جان شب، ئای جان تو

ئانتظئارم، ئانتظئارم ڕوز و شب

زان شبی که وعده کردی ڕوز وصل

ڕوز و شب ڕا می شمارم ڕوز وشب

ئای مهار عاشقان در دست تو

در میان ئاین قطئارم ڕوز شب

می زنی تو، زخمه ها، بر می ڕود

تا به گردون زیر و زارم، زیرو زارم ڕوز وشب

ڕوز و شب ڕا همچو خود، مجنون کنم

ڕوز و شب ڕا کی گذئارم، ڕوز و شب

Translation#1#2

I'm eager for your whim, I'm eager day and night

I won't give up pursuing1, I won't day and night

The soul of day, the soul of night, O your soul 2

I'm longing, I'm longing day and night

Since the night that you promised the joining day3

Day and night, I'm counting the day and night

O harness4 of lovers in your hand

I'm among this queue, day and night

You're hitting, thimbles, and it seems that5

To the firmament6, I'm underneath and miserable, underneath and miserable day and night

I'll make the day and night, insane too like myself

Where I leave a day and night, for the day and night?7

3. I really don't know why they changed the original world of Rumi's poem which is "Ba'd" means next, which makes sense: Since the night that you promised the next day, I'm counting the day and night, changing it to "Vasl"(engagement, joining, unification) causes losing the purpose, beauty and even meaning of the verse
