Translation to:en

Shatranj

از پس پرده نگاه کن ، مثله شطرنجه زمونههرکسی مثله یه مهره توی این بازی می مونهیکی مثله ما پیاده ، یکی صد ساله سوارهیه نفر خونه به دوشه ، یکی دو تا قلعه دارهیه طرف همه سیاه و یه طرف همه سفیدنرو به روی هم یه عمره ما رو دارن بازی می دن

اونا که اوله بازی توی خونه ی تو و منپیش پای اسب دشمن ، اون همه سرباز رو چیدنببین امروزم تو بازی میونه شاه و وزیرنهنوزم بدون حرکت پشت ما سنگر می گیرن (سنگر می گیرن)

تاج و تخت شاه دیروز ، در قلعه شون نمی شهبه خیالشون که این تاج سرشونه تا همیشهیادشون رفتهیادشون رفته که اون شاه که به صد مهره نمی باختتاج و از سرش تو میدون لشگر پیاده انداخت

اونکه ما رو بازی می ده ، اونه که مهره رو چیدهاونکه نه شاهه ، نه سربازنه سیاهه (نه سیاهه) ، نه سفیده (نه سفیده)از پس پرده نگاه کن

chess

look from behind the scenes, like the chess of the timeeverybody is like a man in this gamesomeone is an infantry like us, someone has been a cavalier for 100 yearssomeone is homeless, someone has two castlesone side everybody is black and one side everyone is whiteit is a lifetime they are making us play

they who (from) the first of the game in your house and in minebeside the foeman's horse, have set all those soldierssee they are between the king and the minister nowadays(they) still hide behind us motionlessly

the crown and the throne of the former king, is not their castle doorthey imagine that this crown is theirs foreverthey have forgotten that that king who didn't lose opposite hundreds of meninfantry division overcame him in the battlefield

the one that makes us play, is the one who has set the menthe one that is none king and soldiernone black, none whitelook from behind the scenes
