کنسرت‌های تبعید – شعری از مجید نفیسی

Concerts of Exile

        Majid Naficy

        For Azad

City to city

Country to country

In your packed concerts

You meet children of exile:

In Berlin, Setareh

Who crossed the border at eight months old 

And now her three-year-old son  Elias

Speaks Persian, Dari and German;

In Stockholm, Rosa

Who at sixteen months old

Lost her father in the execution field

And at age four wrote her first poem.

You were born of that anxiety

Although you came to the world

Outside of Iran

And today you throw your Emotional Oranges

Toward everybody.
