| GULCHOHRA: |
I
would not see anyone
No one could achieve my heart.
I did not know what love meant.
On seeing you I fell in love.
I love you so much
I love you so much
I love you so much, darling,
I cannot he far from you |
| Music |
|
Both
sing together
I see helped me my own fate.
Happy love came very late.
You made my life so happy
On seeing you I fell in love.
I love you so much
I love you so much
I love you so much, darling,
I cannot he far from you |

| ASKAR:
|
Khanim,
I am not your equal. |
| GULCHOHRA: |
I
don’t know, but I like you. |
| Music
goes on |
| ASKAR: |
People
are right saying that à soul must be close to à soul,
khanim... |
| GULCHOHRA: |
Don’t
call me khanim. My name is Gulchohra. |
| ASKAR: |
Gulchohra,
what should be done to make your father agree to our
marriage? |
| GULCHOHRA:
|
Ask
permission from my father, if he agrees I’ll be yours,
but if he does not, then I’ll not marry any other person... |
| ASKAR: |
(aside)
Very good. (Hå says to her). Your father will
marry you to another man by force. |
| GULCHOHRA:
|
I’ll
not marry by force. |
| ASKAR:
|
You
will be used violence. |
| GULCHOHRA: |
I’ll
hang. |
| ASKAR:
|
God
forbid! If it’s so, let’s think well. May be I’ll find
à way out. Now you go home, otherwise somebody can see
us. Goodbye. |
| GULCHOHRA: |
Goodbye.
But don’t forget that my word is honest. (She leaves). |
| ASKAR: |
(alone)
By God, I say, hearts can be à whole! Poor girl
likes me. And she doesn’t know that I’m à rich merchant.
I didn’t say on purpose to test the girl. Good! Now
I’m going to send my aunt here under some pretence.
Let her come and see what kind of girl I have chosen. |
