Sozaleh (The Fair-skinned girl) is a traditional Kurdish song that pays homage to beautiful Kurdish girls who have a special charm.

Throughout the history of Iran, Kurdish girls have been described as beautiful, strong, horse riders, musketeers, sturdy, a little harsh and at the same time, very kind and warmhearted.

When ISIS forces attacked their land, Kurdish girls took up arms, and they formed one of the largest fronts of people's resistance against ISIS.

This is a fascinating performance by Rastak Band. Black clothes, respectful and passionate group singings, altogether show the importance and dignity of this song.

Lyrics

Where is my Fair-skinned girl?

Fair-skinned girl, Fair-skinned girl

My Darling! Where is her house?

You brought tears to my eyes with those bright and beautiful eyes

You dance with the handkerchief you hold in your hand

The Fair-skinned girl! | A Love Song | Kurdi Folk Music

You are like a pomegranate, not a pomegranate,

you are like a fig fruit, sweet and sour

You win the hearts of old and young

The Fair-skinned girl! | A Love Song | Kurdi Folk Music

Dastar, Dastar, your Dastar

That you move in the air

Don't let my heart burns, come back, come back

Towards sunset, you cast a shadow over your eyes

Do not burn my heart!

Come back, come back, come back!
