Your hair

There is no need for comb to walk around in your hair
Prevent strangers to enter these limits

Don't question me if I come around your quarters days and nights
Because butterflies always go around the candles

Hey! cup-bearer take the wine jar around and bear
So, I be drunk and the tavern go around my head

Your hair is silky smooth and they tell me not to love it
But how can my heart beat without loving it?

"Majnoon" did not go to deserts as much as I do
Love is not a simple thing, only real men can go in this world

Who ever is in love and sees his beloved one with others
Will go to those horrible desert and wilderness

Hey "Vahed" don't waste your life with being slightly
Gnostic is someone who lives wisely

Original Poem in Turkish:

شانه دولانسین


زولفونده نه لازیم ، گؤزلیم ، شانه دولانسین ؟

قویما او حرمخانه نی بیگانه دولانسین

عیب ایله مه ، کویوندا دولانسام گئجه گوندوز

شمعین گرک اطرافینه پروانه دولانسین

ساقی دولانیم باشینا مئی جامینی گزدیر

سرمست اولوم ، باشیما میخانه دولانسین

اول زولفه کونول وئرمه ، دییرلر منه ال چک

اونسوز نئجه بس بو دل دیوانه دولانسین

مجنون نه برابر منه صحرالره قاچدی

عشق اهلی اودور عرصه ده مردانه دولانسین

اغیار ایله اؤز یارینی همدم گؤرن عاشیق

دوشسون او گرک دشت و بیابانه دولانسین

سرخوش لیق ایله عؤمرونی صرف ائیله مه « واحید »

عارف اونا دییرلر کی ، حکیمانه دولانسین

شاعیر : علی آقا واحد

Who is taking the advantage?

Iran is playing a more important role and is to be defined with a new external image in the world. It is not necessarily good for Iranian people though. Firstly, there are obvious facts that can prove Iran has the tools to have a more effective influence in the middle east both politically and economically. The new tool which is implemented after 1978's revolution, is religion. There is also energy market in which Iran has an important role.
After invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq by the USA, two major enemies of the Islamic Republic have been destroyed. Therefore, Islamic Republic took the advantage of this and developed their influence in these countries using the tool "religion". And now by funding Gas Cartel, with contribution of Russia and Qatar, they are trying to initiate another big tool to have more share in decision making.
Having said these, there are Iranian people who want peace, better economical situation and freedom. I hope there will be some ways to give people more of what they want. Iranian people need to re-define themselves in this whole new world and have a bigger share of happiness.

Tremendous

Don't try to understand

7 years ago...lost and replaced. Replacment needs care and attention. But there is not enough care and attention. So, expected to have what had before. So miserable. So damaged. When lose don't seek...don't replace. Acceptance is the most valuable stage. Take time to accept and to put extra care. For yourself, for the others. Don't replace. If do lose.
Mistery of replacement - if ask lose
