Drunken Gypsies
Words and Translation by Arash Sobhani
One man says it's too late
One man is tired
The distances are too great
The roads are all blocked
One man says it's too early
One man says, not now!
The light hearted gypsies
Are drunk from the smell of the road
Behind the seas, behind every mountain
Behind these borders of sorrow and separation
Every stranger, is a new friend
And with friends, life is so simple
One man stayed and he didn't go
Closed his eyes so he couldn't see
Shut his ears so
He wouldn't hear the song of hope
Another man made a bridge
Like a rainbow
Colored the sky
And reached for tomorrow
Behind the seas, behind every mountain
Behind these arbitrary man made borders of sorrow
Every stranger, is a new friend
And with friends, life is so simple
