This whole thing costs him a broken heart which is actually what that “sinking ship” actually means at first. I’m not sure if I could deliver it in English as it actually is, but just take this from me, this is the most mesmerizing part of this rap in Persian. عاشق انتقامم ولیکن بخشش I love revenge, but شیرینی‌‌ای توش هست که نمیشه وصفش کرد Forgiveness is so sweet that words can’t describe عاشق خود شناسی‌‌ام و ضعف رو باس کشفش کرد I love to know myself and discover all the weaknesses ترس رو باس دفنش کرد All my fears must be buried هدف رو باس شناخت و بعدم سمتش رفت I must find my goals and run towards them عاشق وقتی‌‌ام که I love the times when منم و خدا و بس There’s only god and me فرشته‌ها دست، حاجیت رقص The angels keep clapping and your buddy (Hichkas) keeps dancing مست مست میگیرم جشن که مال دنیا هیچه، پشم Drunk as hell, celebrating because whole this world is now nothing to me, totally worthless تش مرگه، عشق هست In the end, it’s only death, but there’s love now پس،میشه نشست، چشم رو بست so, you can sit, close your eyes رسید به اصل... اصلا یه چی دیگس این عشق And get to that eventual goal, love, it’s something else میکنم خاک رو ترک و میشم به آسمون وصل I just leave the earth and connect to the sky روم رو میکنم به سمت زمین Then look at the earth نشون میدم یه شصت And give it a middle finger (Middle fingering all the material) بیاه... take it این ترانه بارداره، حاملس This song is pregnant, carrying children اسم بچه هاش هم پیام و نوید و امید و خاطره‌س Kids are named : message, promising, hope and memoir (actual Persian names: “Payam, Navid, Omid, Khatereh”) chorus الا یا ایها الساقی ادر کاسا و ناول ها (The poet calls out the bartender:) Bring me my wine که عشق آسان نمود اول ولی افتاد مشکل ها As being in love seems something easy, but all kinds of problem happens when you’re in love
