As long as you can go back in Persian history, Armenian were part of this culture. I guess that is why the Russian Armenian call them PARSG HAI. We are all Iranian regardless of ethnicity or religion. May God bless all of you. As a Shirazi I feel proud when I heard this beautiful and professional group.

[@saghikhamar]

Great performance, God bless Iranians

[@sarkawtshamsulddin3996]

It is an amazing Iranian musician group! Actually, Iran is a big country, there is no any ethnic group to represent its culture, but all Kurds, Persian, Turks, Azeri, Qajar and even Arab in Ahwaz are all make this fantastic culture! It is true, when you watch a song in Farsi, it seems to me as Azeri or Kurds, but it is Iranian Music.

[@azeri10]

all nations live in Iran represent Iranian culture and art

[@dolphin61wolf]

Why can't you enjoy the music? Stop your hatred and race baiting. Persian ,Kurds,Azary,Tajik,Assyria or even Armenian are the same people .we all are sisters &brothers...same language,same culture,same food. Stop all these arguments.

[@tugrulirmak315]

Not same language my friend, not same culture either, similar but not the same. The differences should be celebrated, not oppressed, different identities should be embraced not stamped out and replaced by a Persian dominated identity. Removing cultures and assimilating them is a great universal sin akin to destroying a great work of art.

[@hervederinel262]

dolphin61wolf Actually not at all. Although king cyrus united all these people under the banner of the persian empire, iran is a very multi ethnical country. I agree that hatred has not its place though

In the corner of the sky so vast its written that cute couples have a place in heaven Balal blalaom.. yes! you Leili, (the literal translation Balal is an ear of corn, but in a metaphorical sense hes comparing himself to an ear of corn on the grill...think Mexican elote ;) ) you've set me on fire, yes, you Leili Hey my sweetheart, hey my sweet soul if you don't give me a kiss, ill sneak one from you x2

[@georginathompson3788]

This is what you call an actual girl band.

[@Pahlevuni]

In the vast sky It is written in a corner "He whose lover is beautiful Has a place in Heaven." I am balal (charcoal-grilled maize), I am balal Just like you, Leyli You've roasted/grilled me Just like yourself, Leyli Oh my dear sweetheart, oh my sweet life If you won't give me a kiss I cannot stand tall I am balal, I am balal Just like you, Leyli You've roasted/grilled me Just like yourself, Leyli

[@sean4229]

just excellent and BraVoooooooo

[@Kamali22]

It sounds either kurdish or azeri, it sounds like itself which is shirazi. Shiraz in turns is heart of persian language, culture, music and it's people. Pls stop associating our culture with kurdish, azeri and this and that. I have nothing against kurds or turks, but we have our own culture.

[@liilu8538]

any Shirazi people here who can translate this: I think I can guess some of the words dialect is different, says anyone who has a lover that is beautiful its place is in paradise, I am barbecued from your love :D my sweet one, if u dont give a kiss to me, I will get it by force from you...then she goes on and says im on fire because of u (im toast or barbecued ;)

[@AndyHarpist]

ummm...

[@cale42]

@sahandaman I'm not gonna defend anything Christians have done. As you say, no one's innocent and As a Catholic Saxon (I E a Roman Catholic descended from Germanic peoples of Saxony), I too have my biases. We all do. Though I think we can both agree on several things. Firstly, this is fine music. Secondly, more people need to wake up to the fact that no side is completely clean. The sooner we all agree to that, perhaps the sooner we can all start getting along.

is it possible to obtain a translation of this song into English?

[@dominicus1980]

akinderreality I have been told that it talks about a woman that wants to tell a man that she loves him, but she can only recite love verses hoping for him to notice her. You can feel the lament in the song.

[@orotex529]

eso no es kurdo es irani ciento por ciento

[@AndyHarpist]

It sounds to me rather Kurdish.

[@cale42]

@dasirish Prove me wrong. Prove to me that Muslims have a historically cleaner record than the Jews or the Christians. You won't be able to. Just look to their "Conversion" of Northern India, where they forced harsh conditions on the native Hindu practitioners.

[@turanbirlik4588]

Iran is gaol of peoples. In iran live 35 millions Azerbaijanian Turks! BUT THEY HAVE NOT ANY HUMAN RIGHTS! persian goverment makes them to speak, sing only in persian language. I think that Iran will not live so
