would you translate this sentence
Would you translate this sentence into Arabic or explain the meaning in English. Does it mean the speaker is inviting his friend to meet him or he is just saying that he can't?

The event that the speaker is saying (meeting for tea and seeing the other person sing) never happened. It is in the missed opportunity in the past.
He is proposing a hypothetical (alternate) condition/situation in the sentence under which the event *would* have been true (but, in *this* reality, isn't true).

It should be : under different circumstances
