@HomayunShirzadeh

....English? 

[HomayunShirzadeh]

@EnvyAbomination farsi cannot be translated ..sorry

[EnvyAbomination]

@HomayunShirzadeh

That's quite a shame.

[HomayunShirzadeh]

@EnvyAbomination Sorry boss: even if i try hard... I cannot...Farsi has ideas instead of words.. this goes: it is not possible to comprehend the beauty of SAMA ( music in a sense) for everybody... not every bird can taste of figs.. well you tell me does this make sense to you? that is why so difficult to translate it.. btw this is from RUMI, the most influential poet!!

[Realitycalls]

I were dead, alive I became

I were tears, laughter I became

Then came the majesty of love

and the eternal majesty I became

Rumi

If anybody is interested, my family friend has written a book entitled "The Human Body in Persian Proverbs." It is available on Amazon. com and is pretty cheap.

Wonderful video, btw.
