Delam gerefte                                                                                                                                     دلم گرفته
"Del" in Farsi is "heart" and I would translate "gerefte" to "gloomy" :) so you can use "Delam gerefte" when your heart is gloomy :) meaning you don't feel good, you are not in the mood for anything and kind of depressed (but it's temporary).
