Paroles et traduction Homayoun Shajarian - Grace

Grace

عشق تو مست و کف زنانم کرد
مستم و بی خودم چه دانم کرد
در تنور بلا و فتنه ی خویش
پخته و سرخ رو چو نانم کرد
می پریدم ز دست او چون تیر
دست در من زد و کمانم کرد
خلق گوید، چنان نمی باید
من نبودم چنین چنانم کرد
پُر کنم، شکر آسمان و زمین
چون زمین بودم، آسمانم کرد
از ره کهکشان گذشت دلم
زان سوی کهکشان، کشانم کرد
نردبان ها و بام ها دیدم
فارغ از بام و نردبانم کرد
چون جهان پر شد از حکایت من
در جهان هم چو جان، نهانم کرد
چون زبان، متصل به دل بودم
راز دل یک به یک بیانم کرد
چون زبان متصل به دل بودم
راز دل یک به یک بیانم کرد
بس کن ای دل! که در بیان ناید
آن چه آن یار مهربانم کرد
بس کن ای دل! که در بیان ناید
آن چه آن یار مهربانم کرد
پر کنم، شکر آسمان و زمین
چون زمین بودم، آسمانم کرد

Grace

Your love has me drunk and dancing,
And I am so lost in it that I don't know what to do with myself.
In the furnace of calamity and strife,
You have baked me and made me as red as bread.
I used to fly from his hand like an arrow,
But he caught hold of me and turned me into a bow.
The world says that I should not be this way,
But I was not like this before; it is you who has made me so.
I will fill the heavens and the earth with thanks,
For I was dust, and you have made me into the sky.
My heart has passed beyond the Milky Way,
And beyond the Milky Way, it has drawn me.
I have seen ladders and roofs,
And you have set me free from roofs and ladders.
When the world was filled with the story of me,
You hid me in the world like a soul.
I was connected to my heart like a tongue,
And you made me tell the secrets of my heart one by one.
I was connected to my heart like a tongue,
And you made me tell the secrets of my heart one by one.
Enough, my heart! No words can describe
What that kind and loving one has done for me.
Enough, my heart! No words can describe
What that kind and loving one has done for me.
I will fill the heavens and the earth with thanks,
For I was dust, and you have made me into the sky.
