One of the famous songs of Daler Nazarov: Chaki Chaki Boroni Bahor

Chaki chaki Boron Shirin Ast 

Chaki chaki boroni bahor shirin ast
Dar yod doram turo
Shud bedor dar dil ghami derinam
Az nozi lolazor

Bedilam, bedilam, khanjar zadand bar sinam

Judo kardand moro
Mahinamo mahinam taqdiram oh hamin ast
Caro, charo, ay charo?



Lyrics(Translation): Drip Drop Rain

Drip drop rain in spring is sweat

I have you in my mind

My longtime sorrow woke up in my heart

From coquetry of tulip forest

I'm heartless, I'm heartless, they stabbed my thorax

They separated us

My Mahina, my Mahina, oh, this is my destiny

Why? Why? Oh why?
