In the 1960s and 70s, Googoosh was considered the most celebrated recording artist in Iran and much of the Middle East. In addition to music, Googoosh was also an actress in many Persian films of the 1960s and 1970s. She is more widely known as a singer than as an actress. After the Iranian Revolution in 1979, she is famously known for remaining in Iran until 2000 and not performing or performing again due to the ban on solo female singers. Still, her following grew. Younger people have rediscovered her music via bootleg recordings. Outside of Iran, she has a significant following in many Middle Eastern and Central Asian countries, and has even caught the attention of western media and press. Googoosh is rumored to reside in an estimated $16 million valued estate near Bel Air, Los Angeles, California, and continues her career, albeit in a limited manner.

Should I cry or not ?
May I talk or not ?
May I ever forget your love or not ?
There is no answer to my questions
So I turn to the mirror
looking staring at my image
Then asking : Whom should I leave ?
You are a part of this story
And I'm the other part
We are ganged together
If you ever brake
I'll be broken apart too
Should I cry or not ?
May I talk or not ?
May I ever forget your love or not ?
Neither I can leave you
Nor being in love with you
It's damn hard to decide
being in love with you
or forget you
It seems to be a dead end
either in front
or in the back
How could we get along with ?
Ye , I ask you how ?
look honey look
It seems to be a dead end
either in front
or in the back
How could we get along with ?
Ye , I ask you how ?
Should I cry or not ?
May I talk or not ?
May I ever forget your love or not ?
There is no answer to my questions
You are like my tied-up wings
And I'm the fear of your flight
Just tell me
What can I do
for the freedom of love
from this damn cage ?
