A Rambling Poem Without Rhyme by Khan Dadash
Translated from the original Persian post. The cover image is an editorial visual for this page, not an image from the X post.
If today I plunge into the sea of this unclean fight,
I will stake my life and heart on this fearless face
Until the day I wake and kiss the soil,
The day I become a thorn in Zahhak’s eye.
I will embrace everyone who sees me that day
And kiss their clear eyes with all my heart.
I will dance by the river in Shemiran when the Shah of my Iran
Has returned, and I will seal every doubter’s lips with love.
Long live the Shah.
