I remember him (Vigen) when my parents used to take us to this cafe for dinner in Tehran when he was just begining to be noticed, the lights would be lowered because he was new and bashful. And when we came to US he once came to our hose to eat halim my mother was good at cooking it.
I knew it was a lot deeper than smoochy-kissy crap!
Seems like the song was a Tudeh anthem, and was written by Khosro Roozbeh, a night or so, before he was executed. He wrote it for his daughter and asked his friend (Hassan-e Golnaraghi?), to sing it for her.

"Tudeh anthem"?! "exectution"? this is one the of most ridiculous romurs our fellowIranians have ever created. Folks, this is just a beautiful song! stop the nonsense!
As an Afghan and neighbour of Iran, I pray to god that just like in our country also in Iran the old times come back. They mullah's leave and give the educated people a chance to revive the past glorious times.
If.... the mullah's didn't ruin Iran, it would have been as modern and developped as Germany by now.

The lyrics of this sound was written by a Tudeh officer in perison for her daghter one night before execution. As a last request before his execution, he asked to pass this lyrics to Mr. Golnerghi to put a music on it. Gholnraghi was a 1st person who sing this song in 50's.
that is what i thought for avery long time too. but i have heard from several people that this was actioally only a propaganda and that this story was not true. now i have no clue about the origin of the song but what i cn tell that it catches me everytime i listen to it and brings me back to the old times where i was 7 years old or so

I don't understad! If you don't know for sure why do you comment?
Vigen was the most famous and popular Iranian pop singer since 50's. With over 700 songs he has recorded with almost all other singers. He was also a family man unlike what you "think" and passed away recently.
Yes, this is one of the greatest of all songs, brings back memories for many. Golnaraghi was the original singer, but did not write the lyrics (go to Ayene, go to # 2 in the Archives, for his version). For many years, the common understanding in Iran was that the poem was written by "Sarhang Mobasher" a member of the Tudeh, Communist party to his daughter the night before being executed.
After the 1953 Coup, many Tudeh members were executed, and the collective psyche attributed the song to this cultural shock --as redemption. And also that may explain why the song was also popular in Tajikestan. Lahouti a Tudeh poet had moved there many years before.
Golnaraghi's brother was active politically in 1950 in the nationalist circles. However, the author of the song was a nationalist poet by the name of Reghabi, who went by the pen name of "Haaleh".
The explonation by our fellow here is only one of the theories regarding the origin of this poem, plus punishment of treachery and dictatorship are two separate things ;)
kiss for the last time...in case you don't know the story of this song, it is a longer poem written by an iranian army officer for his daughter from the prison. he was sentenced to death and later on executed by the shah's regime because of his involvement with the hezb'e toodeh, one of the communist/socialist underground political groups under pahlavi's dictatorship. they supposedly had ties to the USSR at the time) that were persecuted by the ruling party back by uncle sam.
Well I was told the name of the Army officer was Colonel or ( Sarhang ) Siamak.
We can blame everyone else for what happen in the past or what is happening now. At the end it is our shortcoming that leads to others do what they want to do.
