Dear Yolanda

That is the title of the song in English :) It's either that, or some variation of it .....

I guess there may not be a good translation of it available after all :)

Hi! R2-D2,

      May I have the song title "O Iran, O House of Hope" in Finglish? I did not find the English lyrics by searching "O Iran, O House of Hope".....

thanks,

Dear Yolanda

You are absolutely right .. That's the right title :)

Like I said, if you find a good translation of it, please post it :)

P.S. I don't think that he has come to U.S. - But I know that he travels in Europe :)

Hi R2-D2,

     One article mentioned a song by Shajarian named "O Iran, O House of Hope" I have a feeling this is the same song in your video.

OMG, IRIB used the song celebrating AN's "win". No wonder Shajarain is not happy about it!

BBC mentioned this song, Rumi, and Shajarian..Wow!

You always pick the interesting songs!!!

Did he ever come to US or will he come to US?

I have to slightly disagree with you :) I believe that Homayoun Jaan has a long way to go to even come slightly close to the artistic talents of Dad :)

Dear Yolanda

Thank you for your wonderful comment :) If you find a good translation of the lyrics, please post it:

The rough translation of the title of this song is : Iran, the gate of hope, or sokething like that :)

Hi Yolanda. It is Homayoun in your link. he used to, and still

tours with his dad but increasingly on his own and with very talented and creative groups like Dastan. In my humble opinion he is as good as his dad minus experience that can not be replaced. I met him last summer and he is also a very modest and likeable guy in person. I strongly recommend the album that includes the song in my link (also performed by his dad in years earlier).

Hi! Hovakhshatare,

     If the guy in your video is Ostaad's son, the guy in my video must be Ostaad's son also.  He stood to the right of Ostaad in a purplish blue shirt. He has an amazing voice just like Ostaad.

thanks for sharing!

Here is one from his son. A worthy competition to master himself

Vatan, vatan, vatan, vatan........hamishe javedan beman

And Yolanda, your assumption on pix is correct. he sang this for 79 uprising, and after June 12th asked  IRR Tv not to broadcast it as he wanted nothing to do with them.

......

Hi R2-D2,
     A great song....It looks like some of the pictures are from 1979, maybe?......The singer has an amazing voice as usual!

thanks for sharing!
