Mr Mean
Ali Azimi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

یه حسابِ پاک / یه مردِ با تقوا / یه آدمِ ناب
یه ریشِ سفید / کفشای براق / کت شلوارِ گشاد
اسمش آقای پَستِ / یه مردِ نمونست / توی شهرِ ما / مثلش خیلی هست
یه روزِ قشنگ ... تو خونه نشسته ... رو کوسنِ نرم
خانمِ خونه... واسه ی آقا ...آش میکنه گرم... ولی
از فکرِ قدیما ... که نمیشه گذشت... وقتی آقای پَست ... دلشو شکست
مادرش گفت... زندگی تو بچسب
یه سیلی که اشکال نداره ...همینه که هست
پسرِ ارشد یکم عقب موندست ...ولی با این حال ... مدیرِ کارخونست
خیابونا رو دور میزنه... با کمی ترس... دنبالِ عشق میگرده توی ولی عصر




خیابونا رو دور میزنه... با کمی ترس ... دنبالِ عشق میگرده توی ولی عصر
اسمش آقای پَستِ... یه مردِ نمونه ... توی شهرِ ما ... مثلش فراون

Overall Meaning

The song "Mr Mean" by Ali Azimi tells the story of a man named Mr. Mean, who is portrayed as a righteous and noble person. He is described as having a clean slate, being a man of faith, and having a noble character. He is an old man with white beard, wearing sparkly shoes, and loose pants. He is respected by everyone in the town, and many people are just like him.


One day, Mr. Mean is sitting at home on a soft cushion, while the lady of the house is cooking him a warm meal. But in his mind, he is troubled by memories of the past, and a broken heart. His mother had told him to hold on to his life, like a boat in a stream that doesn't break under the pressure of the flood. Even though he feels down and out, he is still a senior who manages a factory in the town.


He wanders the streets with a bit of fear, looking for love in the afternoon light. He is a role model for people around him to follow his example. In conclusion, the song is about portraying Mr. Mean as a respected and dignified person who has lived a full and meaningful life, and how he is an inspiration to those around him.

This music mix with best scenes   of
Iranian masterpiece movies and video directly match with lyric…

Translation this song from Persian to English

 

Prologue

My problem is not for
bad luck and biter period

How to hide a callus
on my hands is not my problem

Food, bread, water,
power aren’t my problem

Romantic, maybe find
a solution

Or I give in for this
elegy

Mercy

Mercy

I will be wind and go
to your hair

I will be a word go
to your ears

Became a thought in
your mind

I will be Mercedes Benz
and you drive me

I will be a poverty
in your pocket

I will be a wolf in
your flock

All people loves you
and you have many fan

And

Buzzy mind

Cool…good job

Cool, good job

I try to next to you
but you will find distance

May be you accepted me
in this full of pressure and stress way

This is my story …this
is my story

I will be shining in
your eyes

Tears in your cheek

I will be long hair
in your shoulder

 I will be wind and go to your hair

I will be cigarette
between your lips

 Like smoke in your lung

I wish fortune coming
to me

Because my loneliness
never ending with this illusion

I wish fortune coming
to me

Because my loneliness
never ending with this illusion

I scream my secretes
with carelessly

I express my feel
with no reason

I f,,,k  this  day …pity… pity     

I f,,,k  this  day …pity… pity     

 

I try to next to you
but you will find distance

 

May be you accepted me
in this full of pressure and stress way

This is my story …this
is my story

@chegeuvera

Translation;

My troubles aren't due to misfotune, nor sadness,
Nor is it because my clothes or shelter are lacking,
Neither due to lack of electricity, water or bread,
It is the loss of solitude's charm (since the arrival of this person in his life)
I hope one day this ordeal is resolved.

Caution, Caution!

Wish I could become wind so to play with your hair,
Or become words entering your ears,
Become an idea so to gain access to your thoughts,
Or become a Benz under your feet,
Become money in your pockets for you to carry,
Or become dust so to enter your lungs.

I know, you have a myriad of admirers in queue,
They all love and highly think of you,
And that warm persona of yours!

I come at times close just to become distant and stray,
I may end up dead if this continues, I fear

I wish to become a current and his your gaze,
Become a tear just to touch and roll down your face,
Or a ringlet - touching your slender shoulders,
Or wind and play with your hair,
A cigar so to touch your lips,
Or become its smoke so to be absorbed in your lungs,

O fortune! Come to my rescue as my restplace is cold with her absence (x3)

My family escaped Iran when I was 11. I grew up hiding my ethnicity so I could finally feel like i belonged somewhere. Now in my thirties I'm starting to turn back to my roots. Our culture, our people and our land is so beautiful. I'm a proud Iranian.

@sophiakarimi6005

Ok

@khedayati1549

So nice

@karimakah

Never hide your roots. All together we build a world with our differences.
