The cocoon I'd weaved,
turned to fetters
instead of silk,
and I went on spinning
...

همه عمر
نیلوفر مرداب
خواب دریا دید
...

در مجلسی با نقاب های ده رنگ
صورت بی نقابم چه نا به جاست
...

پرنده ی سی پر کشید
و من مبهوت ماندم
خیره به پروازش
...

پیله ای که تنیدم
نه ابریشم
که بندی شد بر پا
و من بی خیال پروانه شدن
...

There were many stars
in our childhood sky,
but as we got adult,
the stars went to die
...

In this big ball
where people all
wear tinted masks,
I'm out of place
...

All her life on a marsh,
a water lily
dreamed of the sea.
...

The bird thirty flew out,
and I stood still,
staring at its flight.
...

From the moment you go to say Dad,
a couple of hulks stand against you.
How they've popped up,
you'll never know.
