یاد باد آن صحبت شب‌ها که با نوشین لبان / بحث سر عشق و ذکر حلقۀ عشاق بود

Blowin’ in the wind

Blowin’ in the wind

How many roads must a man walk down
Before they call him a man
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand
How many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they are forever banned
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind

How many years must a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea
How many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free
How many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn't see
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky
How many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry
How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind

تا درخت دوستی بر کی دهد

حالیا رفتیم 

و تخمی کاشتیم

genius

A genius! For thirty-seven years I've practiced fourteen hours a day, and now they call me a genius!

- Attributed to Pablo Sarasate (1844 - 1908)

Spanish violinist and composer.

سخن نو آر

فسانه گشت و کهن شد حدیث اسکندر / سخن نو آر که نو را حلاوتی است دگر

حدیث آنکه سکندر کجا رسید و چه کرد / ز بس شنیدن گشته ست خلق را از بر

شنیده‌ام که حدیثی که آن دوباره شود / چو صبر گردد تلخ ارچه خوش بود چو شکر

سرکش مشو

هنگام تنگدستی در عیش کوش و مستی / کاین کیمیای هستی قارون کند گدا را

سرکش مشو که چون شمع از غیرتت بسوزد / دلبر که در کف او موم است سنگ خارا
