I was going to say something flippant, then thought better of it. Where did you get the photo? Are there no captions?

Unless that's just the words to "Tiny Bubbles," you might try bablefish.com

Are you sure it's Farsi? Looks more like
Urdu, which is the language of Pakistan.

I took a basic arabic class once, but it's been a while. I'll look at it and try to get back to you.

Also, keep in mind that arabic and farsi are phonetic (sp). That means even if I can read and pronounce the word I can't really tell you what it means.

I think that's one of those man-dresses they wear in this part of the world.

I'm going to buy one here to hang around the house in when I'm home.

I've learned a little conversational Arabic. I'm looking at my Arabic alphabet sheet and don't see those characters.

I've gotten really fluent in the cuss words.

I've learned a little conversational Arabic. I'm looking at my Arabic alphabet sheet and don't see those characters.

The first character is clearly a taa. There are no short vowels, so getting the pronunciation right is problematic at best. The second character, is a kaaf *I think*. It looks like a waaw is attached to it followed by a faa. There appears to be a short vowel (hamza) above the kaaf. My best guess, and it's likely wrong, is that the first word is roughly pronounced "t-kou-f". I have no idea what it means.

I've forgotten so much of what I'd learned. It's frustrating.
