Voice: Sakina Teyna Guitar: Mahan Mirarab Composition: Hêjar Salam Orient Festival 2019 - Vienna English: My beloved child How sweet is life with you My beloved child What can I do That you will sleep My unfortunate child The hillside and the rough rocks Are our companions Just why do we have to go so far The ways drenched in blood why are they so endless My beloved child Go to sleep The roads are our home My beloved child Last year you were still with me Just new-born They took you away from me In the night My beloved child Sleep, sleep The desert is our home.
