Shab-e Toolani (The Long Night) by Ali Molaei علی مولایی - شب طولانی - با زیرنویس انگلیسی Yalda Night is an important Iranian holiday celebrated on the Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year. On this day, one spends time with family talking, reading poetry by Hafez, and eating pomegranate, watermelon, persimmon, nuts, etc. In one of the first lines of the song, he is talking about how to "places" of those who have passed away are "empty". This is how you show or say that someone is missed. For example, if you missed out on my party, and afterwards you asked me how it went, I can say "Your place was empty (Jat khali bud)", which is to say that you were missed and I wish you could have made it. Another line is "You are like the rain at the heart of the party", which might sound weird to English ears, because of the common saying "rain on someone's parade". However, in Iranian culture, rain is considered to be a good thing because water is more scarce in Iran. Therefore, this line should not be seen as an insult, in fact quite the opposite.
