Iranian Fire Festival celebration.
Sorkhi-ye to az man; Zardi-ye man az to
(Give me your beautiful red colour; And take back my sickly yellow pallor)
Chaharshanbeh-Souri (also written Chaharshanbeh Soori, Charshanbeh Suri, Chahr Shanbeh Soori) is an ancient Iranian festival dating at least back to 1700 BCE of the early Zoroastrian era. The festival of fire is a prelude to the ancient "Nowruz" festival, which marks the arrival of spring and revival of nature. Nowruz, or the New Year's Day in the Iranian calendar, falls on March 21 this year.
