خیال تو (Khiale To)

English translation by Ali Pahlavan

Khiale To (Your Dream)

Lyrics — Yavar Fallahi · Music — Ali Pahlavan

When the sky turns cloudy
my memories come alive again —
the flowerpots of my longing
take on the scent of rain.

When the sky turns cloudy
I grow anxious for your heart,
afraid that somehow
they won’t let you come to me.

Again I lose myself in sweet memories of you.
Again I burn in the fire of your image.
Again, with the scent of earth and rain on a quiet street,
remembering our wanderings, I fall in love with you.

Rain becomes an excuse,
and I set my longing free —
till it reaches your city
my heart wavers a whole world over.

I come and sit beside you,
gaze into your eyes again;
because I know it will end,
I rush for every look of yours.

Rainy memories
wet my cheeks;
by their grace, the tears from my eyes
lighten my heart.

Again I lose myself in sweet memories of you.
Again I burn in the fire of your image.
Again, with the scent of earth and rain on a quiet street,
remembering our wanderings, I fall in love with you.

When rain falls soft and fine
I feel you’re thinking of me;
as long as the clouds are raining
I’m all your thought and mind.

When the sky turns cloudy
my memories come alive again —
every keepsake of yours
takes on the scent of rain.

Rainy memories
wet my cheeks;
by their grace, the tears from my eyes
lighten my heart.

Again I lose myself in sweet memories of you.
Again I burn in the fire of your image.
Again, with the scent of earth and rain on a quiet street,
remembering our wanderings, I fall in love with you.
