محمدرضا شجریان

دیشب محمدرضا شجریان زنگ زد خونه‌مون. کمی دلش گرفته بود و گریه کرد. من در تمام مدتی که صحبت می‌کرد ادب کردم و فقط گوش دادم. حرفش که تموم شد گفتم: محمدرضا جان، حالا سبک‌تر شدی؟ گفت آره، سبک‌تر شدم. گفتم آفرین. حالا می‌تونی یکی از اون شعرای قشنگتا برام بخونی؟ گفت کدوما بخونم؟ گفتم هر کدوما که خودت دوست داری بخون عزیزم. گفت می‌خوای خارجی بخونم برات؟ گفتم آره عزیزم، خارجی بخون. اون هم برام شعر برف‌های نیویورک با صدای استاد کریس دی برگ رُ خوند:

I can see you now by the light of the dawn
And the sun is rising slow
We have talked all night and I can't talk anymore
But I must stay and you must go

You have always been such a good friend to me
Through the thunder and the rain
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York
Lift your heart and think of me

There are those who fail, there are those who fall
There are those who will never win
Then there are those who fight for the things they believe
And these are men like you and me

In my dream we walked, you and I to the shore
Leaving footprints by the sea
And when there was just one set of prints in the sand
That was when you carried me

You have always been such a good friend to me
Through the thunder and the rain
And when you're feeling lost in the snows of New York
Lift your heart and think of me

When you're feeling lost in the snows of New York
Lift your heart and think of me
Lift your heart and think of me
