Persian (Farsi) term or phrase: Be karetun beresid
This is from the Iranian serial چهارخونه.

A male character has just had a loud telephone call in his office. All of his co-workers are looking at him. After he hangs up, he looks at them and says, "Be karetun beresid, be karetun beresid."

Be karetun beresid = "Go back to work"?

Thanks.
