You're welcome!

While were at it, here are some lyrics in Turkish and Hebrew (Hebrew for "A" section only).

"In Turkey, Ajda Pekkan sang this song with these lyrics:

Böyle gelmiş böyle, böyle geçer dünya
Günlerimiz bitecek bir gün saya saya
Seneler koşuyor,gülüp ağlatıyor
Bir yol bak aynaya,ömrümüz geçiyor
Bir kez bak aynaya,ömrümüz geçiyor
Neşe, keder,hepsi geçer
Bize kar kalan,nedir bu dünyadan
Bize kar kalan,nedir bu dünyadan

Böyle gelmiş böyle,böyle geçer dünya
Günlerimiz bitecek,birgün saya saya
Daha dün çocuktuk,sokaklarada koştuk
Yarın belki göç var,bu dünya olamaz ya

Seneler koşuyor,gülüp ağlatıyor
Bir yol bak aynaya,ömrümüz geçiyor
Bir kez bak aynaya,ömrümüz geçiyor"

And I renew my earlier call to the Forum for the Farsi lyrics (I know they exist!) to this song.

Salaam/Selam/Shalom/Khoda Hafez,
John
