 موسیقی: فریبرز لاچینی

شعر: ژیلا مساعد، محمود کیانوش، فرهاد شیبانی آواز: سیمین قدیری ----------------------------------------------- باد آمد باد آمد از دریا ابر آورد گلها را با خود برد آنها را پرپر كرد برگ افتاد از شاخه سبزی را زردی برد پروانه رفت از باغ گرما را سردی برد گنجشكان بی آواز در لانه می مانند بچه ها آواز خوشبختی می خوانند

Music: Fariborz Lachini

Lyrics: Mahmoud Kianoosh

----------

The wind came, the wind came,

it brought clouds from the sea,

it took the flowers with it and filled them

The leaf fell from the branch,

yellowness took the green,

the butterfly left the garden,

the heat was taken by the cold,

the songless sparrows stay in the nest,

the children sing the song of happiness.
