“Hamaja Dokan e Rang Ast” –  همه جا دکان رنگ است

#Eurovision2023. Poem by Raziq Faani. Rough Translation: “Everyone lies, and now everyone wants to sell their lies. Our hearts burn like fomenting glass, and everyone is selling the stones to break them. Our simple hearts are the surface upon which she projects her charismatic and enchanting looks. How artfully did she steal my heart, and how beautifully does she promote herself? From our enlightened and fiery nature, do not expect good behavior and respite, because we would never seek to cajole, coddle, and win over companions and friends in a place that profits off of war and violence.”
