Broken Angel (feat. Helena)

The song 'Broken Angel' by Arash, featuring Helena, is a poignant expression of loneliness and yearning for companionship. The lyrics convey the deep sense of isolation and despair felt by someone who considers themselves a 'broken angel,' a metaphor for a person who is deeply hurt and feels incomplete. The repeated plea to 'listen to my heart' underscores the desire for understanding and connection, emphasizing the emotional turmoil within.

The Persian phrases interspersed throughout the song add a layer of cultural depth and personal touch, as Arash is an Iranian-Swedish singer known for blending Persian music with Western pop. The lines 'Man dooset daram' (I love you), 'Be cheshme man gerye nade' (Don't cry in front of me), and 'Bedoone to halam bade' (Without you, my situation is bad) express a deep affection and concern for the loved one, as well as a sense of helplessness without their presence. The song's narrative is one of a person who is incomplete without their partner, whose absence has left them in a state of despair.

The chorus's call for the broken angel to 'come n' save me before I fall apart' is a desperate cry for rescue from the brink of emotional collapse. The song resonates with anyone who has ever felt abandoned or in need of salvation from their own inner demons. The use of 'La la leyli' adds a haunting and ethereal quality to the song, reinforcing the theme of otherworldly sorrow and the longing for a savior to mend a shattered spirit.
