Derakht
Kamran Rasoolzadeh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
حتی اگر هر آنچه که دارید رو کنید
کوچکترید از آنکه بدانید من کیم
از کوه ها نام مرا پرس و جو کنید
ای باد های سرد مخالف منم درخت
باید که ریشه های مرا جستجو کنید
ای باد های سرد مخالف من ایستادم
این سینه ام که خنجرتان را فرو کنید
بر من مباد تیغی شما زخمی ام کند
شاید به خواب مرگ مرا آرزو کنید
کوچکترید از آن که مرا زیر و رو کنید
حتی اگر هر آنچه که دارید رو کنید
من ریشه در شقایق پر خون نشانده ام
گلهای سرخ باغ من را خوب بو کنید
