Mehran Sirani Poems

For you:
- Could have sailed in every furious ocean
- Could have moved every rough mountain
- Could have reached the top of the sky
...

Let me touch your warm hands,
To feel the magic power of life;
Let me drown in your sweet eyes,
To feel the endless beauty of the world;
...

The flying notes of solo piano,
Were softly floating in the air.
The shadows of burning candles,
Were quietly dancing tango on the walls.
...

The wicked pointers of the clock
Are devilishly moving backward
Each second seems an endless trip
Deep inside an infinite black hole
...

There is no more Mona Lisa around
Nor a miraculous Serenade in the air
Even the inexhaustible Old Guitarist
That once could enchant the world
...

No matter young or elderly
Rich or poor; healthy or sick
Cute or ugly; Happy or sad
Tall or short; obese or skinny
...

Cry out my motherland
That instead of high-flying eagles
The ugly vultures have built the nest
On the top of your centuries old wisdom tree
...

Deep in:
Your cute eyes are
The oceans of numerous lovely secrets
Your soft lips are
...
