ifilm series ‘Father’ star Mehdi Soltani sings live

Star of the ifilm series ‘Father’, Mehdi Soltani, has sung live during a TV show.

Soltani attended the popular Iranian TV show ‘Khandevaneh’ and sang a sad song.

The song’s English translation:

“I became lonely in this world

I became a lonely herb in the middle of the desert

Like a madman fleeing from people

I hastily went after Leila

I laugh in vain, I weep vainly

Why I disappointedly became infamous

Why I fell in love, became lovelorn

I know the long-known; I know the sweet-gesture

The love between us was a blessing by God, as a result I know God

Happy the day that this world comes to an end; the hereafter rises

I’ll go to the Devine justice to ask when a lover’s wish may come true

I laugh in vain, I weep vainly

Why I disappointedly became infamous

Why I fell in love, became lovelorn”

Born in 1971, Mehdi Soltani-Sarvestani has a BA in Acting from Tehran University, a Master’s in Directing from Tehran University and a PhD in Theater from the Avignon University of France.
