سال به سال٬ دریغ از پارسال

سال به سال٬ دریغ از پارسال 

sāl be sāl, dariγ az pārsāl
year to year regret from last-year
Year to year, regret [comes] from last-year

“Year after year we long for (what we left behind) the previous year.”
 year – sāl – سال
to – be – به
regret – dariγ – دریغ
from – az – از
 last year– pārsāl– پارسال

Persian looks nice and elliptical in its sayings.
