I translated Iranian singer-songwriter Shervin Hajipour’s hit song “Baraye” to English ???? Being American-born myself but raised by Iranians parents who left during the revolution, I purposely made it my own to reflect my experiences as an Iranian born outside of Iran and never having been to Iran. I do encourage everyone to listen to the original, but this is the point of covers: all songs belong to all the people ???????? let’s please help spread the word to the western world about his amazing work ???? they arrested him for writing this song while living in Iran. #mahsaamini #مهسا_امینی #shervinhajipour #زن_زندگی_آزادی
For dancing in the allies and the streets,
For the thrill and the fear of getting caught kissing
For my sister, my brother, and unity
For all the times we tried to change their minds and stale beliefs
For the loss of pride, and poverty
For the dream of just a normal life for you and me
For all the children who are starving for a loaf of bread
For the greed of politics and all the lies they spread
For all the mass-polluted air we breathe,
For all the litter in the streets and all the dying trees
For all the animals who suffer from elimination
For all the cats and dogs who love us without no conditions
For all the tears that seem to never end
For all the images that keep on turning in our heads
For a simple smile, for just a little while
For the future generations fighting for their time
For empty promises of heaven in the after-life
For all the imprisonment of beautiful minds
For all the babies who are born and for the ones who died
For all the times you told the truth, and all the times you lied
For all the speeches that we heard about a million times
For all the shacks and shelters that were sold to make a dime
For just a glimpse of a peaceful life,
For the rising of the sun after an endless night
For all the pills we pop just to get some sleep
For all mankind, for our country
For all the boys and girls who never knew equality
For woman, for life, liberty.
For dancing in the allies and the streets,
For the thrill and the fear of getting caught kissing
For my sister, my brother, and unity
For all the times we tried to change their minds and stale beliefs
For the loss of pride, and poverty
For the dream of just a normal life for you and me
For all the children who are starving for a loaf of bread
For the greed of politics and all the lies they spread
For all the mass-polluted air we breathe,
For all the litter in the streets and all the dying trees
For all the animals who suffer from elimination
For all the cats and dogs who love us without no conditions
For all the tears that seem to never end
For all the images that keep on turning in our heads
For a simple smile, for just a little while
For the future generations fighting for their time
For empty promises of heaven in the after-life
For all the imprisonment of beautiful minds
For all the babies who are born and for the ones who died
For all the times you told the truth, and all the times you lied
For all the speeches that we heard about a million times
For all the shacks and shelters that were sold to make a dime
For just a glimpse of a peaceful life,
For the rising of the sun after an endless night
For all the pills we pop just to get some sleep
For all mankind, for our country
For all the boys and girls who never knew equality
For woman, for life, liberty.
