آهویی دارم
آهویی دارم
I Have a Deer

Children's Song
(Persian)
(English)
آهویی دارم خوشگله، فرار کرده ز دستم
دوریش برایم مشکله، کاشکی اونو می بستم
ای خدا چی کار کنم، آهومو پیدا کنم
ای خدا چی کار کنم، آهومو پیدا کنم
آی چه کنم، وای چه کنم کجا اونو پیدا کنم
کاشکی اونو می بستم
کاشکی اونو می بستم
I have a pretty deer, he's run away from me,
His absence is hard for me; I wish I'd tightened up his strap.
Oh God what shall I do? I shall find my deer.
Oh God what shall I do? I shall find my deer.
Oh what shall I do, God what shall I do Where should I find him?
I wish I'd tightened up his strap
I wish I'd tightened up his strap.

Aahuyi daaram khoshgele, faraar karde ze dastam
Durish baraayam moshkele, kaashki uno mibastam
Ey khodaa chi kaar konam? Aahumo peydaa konam
Ey khodaa chi kaar konam? Aahumo peydaa konam
Aay che konam, vaay che konam, kojaa uno peyda konam
Kaashki uno mibastam
Kaashki uno mibastam
