Found an amazing web site with impressive catalog of poetry and literature in Farsi.
I used to have a very large library when I was in Sweden, and took them with me to US when my company moved me there, but I had to gave them away when I went back to take care of my parents, I only kept a few books of Khayyam and Hafez with me.
Finding this site is like a dream come true. It has search function too and sorting the poets based on the timeline, from 11th century to 21st.
نوای خاطراتت ملودی آشنایی که خلوت تنهایی گوش هایم می طلبد دلم پروانه ی کوچکی در مسیر عشق که آغوش تو رو فرا می خواند بی تو هرگز با تو هر زمان هر جا شانه ات تکیه گاه امن اشک های بی وقفه ام قلبت آرامگاه درد های بی درمانم بازوانت پناهگاه دستان سردم گویند هر آن که از دیده رود از دل نیز برود گویم عشق دیده و دل نشناسد بغض غصه های شبانگاهم می دانم می آیی می شوی ترمیم زخم های دلم تا همیشه تا ابد منتظرت می مانم Hier gehts zur englischen Fassung.

“Farsi is a language of tenderness. It is an infusion of poetry and humor, the intersection of everything human. “Jigareto Bokhoram”—which translates to “let me eat your liver”—is an expression of endearment. A person who is “bi Namak” is “without salt”: dull, the antithesis of charming. You could s

Some words in Arabic makes me giggle
طائرة بدون طيار
(Airplane without pilot)
Is what they call a drone.
But in Farsi they use
پَهپاد
Which is the name described as
پرندهٔ هدایتپذیر از دور
(Remotely controlled flying object).
I don't know if they have any words in Arabic for it.
Y'all, I officially have no idea what in tarnation is actually happening in #Iran. (Not nukes! #TACO instead. Yay.)
The US media is touting this like #USA won, but #Arab and #Farsi reports are telling a story a little more plausible. Those reports say that the Strait will be opened *under IRGC control, for two weeks, using tolls (that's new), with payment in #Chinese #Yuan.
This is the beginning of the end of the petrodollar. And Iran has two weeks to rebuild their missile systems and 14 Billion in Yuan we just gave them to buy oil.
Meanwhile, #Israel says ceasefire doesn't apply to them, and they targeted and destroyed one of the oldest synagogues in the world in Tehran, burying torah scrolls older than those in Jerusalem.
Wrong kind of Jews. Tan / Brown ones. Like the bombing of the Catholic churches in Palestine and Lebanon. Wrong kind of Christians. Not the Crusaders, you see. Don't worship the Golden Calf, preferring the peasant Palestinian.
How is this a "winning"?
