uh huh - feeling it guys.  Fine trio work Nick, Paul and Hossein

Wow, another great version !!! I loved the Paul's backing which reminded me very much of my favorite song "Can't find my way home" by Blind Faith and this version is really fantastic!!

What a tasty phrasing on the guitar...and vocals are so impressive.

This is also a wonderful version! Great collaboration!

Fantastic collaboration!  Each has done so well. I really love so many of the words. I could point out so many. I can only imagine their beauty in the original Persian. 

Awesome vibes and melodies! Up on the daily list 3.10!!

A wonderful open collab from Paul, to which Hossein has added his incredible vocal.  A pleasure for me to rework some guitars into this. Hope you like

Be good

Nick

English translation of the lyrics (by Hossein Ragheb):

In this place of loneliness, no one knocks the door
To this land of suffering no bird comes for a fly

None of the people in the dark turns on some light
No one in this town of night moves to find the dawn

I'm sat in this dusty place waiting for a rider
No chance for the day light through such deep darkness

The ruins of my heart can't be ruined further
The blade of your sorrow can't stab any worse

This is a passage of cruelty where except for sorrow
No one talks to any passenger in a friendly way

How to expect any response from closed entrances
Go, as no one calls somebody who acts like a deaf

I've got no shadow or fruit, it's fair if they cut me
Otherwise, no one raises an axe to cut useful trees

Original lyrics in Persian:

در این سرای بی کسی کسی به در نمی زند
به دشــت پـر مـلال مـا پـرنـده پـر نمی زند

يـكی زشـب گرفتگــان چـراغ بـر نمی كند
كسی به كوچه سـار شـب در سحر نمی زند

نـشسته ام در انـتظار اين غـبـار بی سـوار
دريغ كـز شـبی چنين سـپيده سـر نمی زند

دل خـراب من دگـر خـراب تـر نمی شود
كه خنجر غمت از اين خـراب تر نمی زند

گذر گهی است پر ستم كه اندرو به غير غم
يـكی صلای آشــنـا بـه رهگـذر نـمی زند

چه چشم پاسخ است از اين دريچه های بسته ات
بـرو کـه هـيچ کـس نـدا به گـوش کـر نمی زند

نـه سـايه دارم و نـه بـَر، بيفکننـدم و سـزاست
اگـر نـه بـر درخــت تـر کـسی تـبـر نمی زند

Land of Loneliness (from Do it Now..OC) (Nick R Davies, Paploviante & Rehearsals) سرای بی کسی

This is what I did.
Fast asleep now
Time was our only enemy 
Be good
Nick
