“Zamana” song by Ustad Dawood Sarkhosh



“O Time, O Time! Faithless one, may you burn, may you burn!
O Separation, Separation! From where do you come? May you burn in fire!

Nights without song, let them vanish, let them fade.
The cold unkindness of time, let it vanish, let it fade.

The hearts of people burn in grief, burn in grief,
While they long to return home, to sing once more.

The fragile hearts, broken, broken,
The bond of branch and blossom, shattered, shattered.

O ruthless world, what have you done, what have you done?
That Kabul, piece by piece, lies broken, broken…
