I’m à grieving, sad nightingale far from à flower of grace.

Music

I’m à grieving, sad nightingale far from à flower of grace,
I would always twitter, but I’m dumb for your lovely face. (2)

Music

I tried to be patient and not to grieve being far from thee.

Music

I tried to be patient and not to grieve being far from thee,
But I would not know to be far from thee is hardship for me. (2)
Oh, aman*... aman... aman... aman!....
But I would not know to be far from thee is hardship for me. (2)
Come yar,* come yar, come yar! ..

Music

I lost my sense by being far from thy beauty and lovely face.

Music

I lost my sense by being far from thy beauty and lovely face.
I have become ruined being far from thy triumphant grace. (2)

Music

My life was destroyed for being far from thy hair and mole,
The desert became my home for being far from that wild deer. (2)
Oh, aman... aman... aman... aman!

Music

The desert became my home for being far from that wild deer.
Oh come yar, oh, come óàã, oh, come yar!

Music

She covers her fàñå and sobs.

Asya enters and comes èð to Gulchohra

ASYA: Gulchohra, for the sake of God, tell me please, what has happened that you look so sad for several days?
GULCHOHRA: By God, I myself don’t know. Probably I’m sick.
ASYA: You know, à sick person should feel pain in body. Apparently you have not any pain, God bless!
GULCHOHRA: Oh, please, don’t ask me. Leave me alone.
