Following a 21-year performing ban imposed by the conservative government of Iran (where she continued to live following the 1979 Islamic revolution), Googoosh finally left the country in 2000 to undertake a world tour, re-establishing her status as the most successful Iranian artist of all time.
The phenomenal success of these concerts was testament not only to her lasting quality as an artist, but a tribute to generations of Iranians who, despite over two decades of silence, demonstrated their continuing love and loyalty to an enduring star of a bygone era. In turn she rewarded their devotion with proof that she continues to remain relevant to today's audiences, showing that she is a star not only of the past, but of the present and the future.

با ظاهر آرام نگاهت
با سادگی روی چو ماهت
هر لحظه درآیی تو به رنگی
شیطون بلا بسکه زرنگی
در پشت لب آن خال خدایی که زیبا نشسته
در حسرت یک بوسه شیرین چه دلها شکسته
فلفل نبین چه ریزهبشکن ببین چه تیزه
خنده هایت عشوه هایت
برده از ما راحت و خواب
قطره قطره ذره ذره
دل به سینه میشود آب
تو همان چشمان سیه دیدی وز ناز نگه خبر نداری
تو آن رخساره و رو دیدی وز پیچش مو خبر نداری
فلفل نبین چه ریزهبشکن ببین چه تیزه
The lyrics to Googoosh's song "Felfel Nabin Che Rizeh" express the singer's overwhelming infatuation with their love interest. The first two lines describe the person's calm and simple demeanor, while the following lines emphasize their playful and mischievous nature. The singer longs for a kiss from the person, whose beauty has left them heartbroken.
The chorus, "Felfel nabin che rizeh, boshkan bebin che tizeh," is a playful phrase that roughly translates to "Don't worry about the pepper seeds, look at how sharp the chili is!" This phrase can be interpreted as a metaphor for the person's charming and alluring qualities, which the singer is drawn to despite any potential flaws or baggage they may have. The following lines describe how the person's laughter and tricks have enchanted and entranced the singer, making it difficult for them to think straight. Lastly, the singer addresses the person directly, mentioning their black eyes and rosy cheeks, and how they seem unaware of the effect they have on others.
Overall, the song conveys a sense of unbridled passion and infatuation, with the singer completely enraptured by the object of their desire. The use of playful language and metaphors adds to the whimsical nature of the song, which is characteristic of Googoosh's early work.

با ظاهر آرام نگاهت
Your calm appearance
با سادگی روی چو ماهت
Your simple face like the moon
هر لحظه درآیی تو به رنگی
You come with a different color every moment
شیطون بلا بسکه زرنگی
A mischievous troublemaker, yet smart
در پشت لب آن خال خدایی که زیبا نشسته
Behind the beauty spot on your lips where a Godly beauty has sat
در حسرت یک بوسه شیرین چه دلها شکسته
Many hearts have been broken over the desire for a sweet kiss from you
فلفل نبین چه ریزه
Don't look at the pepper, it's nothing
بشکن ببین چه تیزه
Break it and see how sharp it is
خنده هایت عشوه هایت
Your laughter and seduction
برده از ما راحت و خواب
Has taken away our comfort and sleep
قطره قطره ذره ذره
Drop by drop, particle by particle
دل به سینه میشود آب
It makes our hearts melt
تو همان چشمان سیه دیدی وز ناز نگه خبر نداری
With those black eyes, you see everything, but act innocent
تو آن رخساره و رو دیدی وز پیچش مو خبر نداری
You see that face and hair, but pretend not to notice the twisting of hearts
فلفل نبین چه ریزه
Don't look at the pepper, it's nothing
بشکن ببین چه تیزه
Break it and see how sharp it is
