Lyrics

In my chest there is a whole sky of longing

The air of home has endless colours in it

For this stranger, every night is a war

and every breath I take is a stone…

My heart longs for those lanes of dust

it carries the grief of distance from that clean country

in its chest a burn from parting with the vine

Here my heart holds nothing but a sorrow

Remembering those kind days and kinder nights

remembering the warm laughter of friends

where did it go, that boundless ease

I sit here, a stranger, wretched and unable…

If only I could take wing to that country

and be let go of all this waiting

to lay my head on that one thorn of theirs

to draw a thousand lives out of its breeze

Give me back to my home again

Give me back to the soil of my Iran again

Give me back to my cradle of safety and peace

Give me back to that house where the ones I love are
