Mother's Day
We do know how much our mothers love us, their children. We all do know about severe pains they have felt until they have brought their children up.
There is a famous phrase in Persian that says :”Paradise belongs to Mothers”
Every morning your breakfast is ready and there is no need to thank her.
Your clothes are always clean and ironed without complaining.
She smiles when you nag or moan.
.
.
When I think of tasks that a mother does I thank my mom. Being a mother is not easy at all. One must experience numerous pains to be a good mother.
Tommorow in Iran is the national day for Mothers, but here I want to thank all mothers in the world for they are always the kindests.

Hello everybody,
I have finished translating some poems from Persian to English.They are modern poems and they are written in German.
I could not find the original German poems but Persian translations could be found somehow hard.
About the Poet
I like to let the poet’s name hidden.He was an Iranian patriot and an educated singer.He was killed in silence and some Iranians still think that he’s alive and is leaving abroad, in exile.
I hope one day ,All these patriots will be familiar and there will be no problem with revealing their names.
Here are the poems:
Not Heared
I don’t like the ruins,
to spread on our fortune;
that reposed uniforms march on our future.
I don’t like the flowers,
to look for a shelter;
in the desert….
The Sorrow of Autumn
Autumn has its own sorrow, Continue reading »
When we leave it.
Now, its statues;
beneath the sky with which we adorned ourselves;
change [completely].
And the lines of its hands
decoy of arrival.
The light red birds,
Good day!,
As a folk song freak, today I have a nice , rhythmic Chilean song in Spanish.
In it you will hear of loyality and friendship.
I could find a Persian version too.
Here are the lyrics , both in Spanish and English*:
Mi Caballo Blanco
Es mi caballo blanco
como un amanecer
Siempre juntitos vamos
Es mi amigo más fiel.
Chorus: Mi caballo, mi caballo,
galopando va,
Mi caballo, mi caballo,
se va, y se va.
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah.
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah.
En alas de una dicha, mi caballo corrió
y en brazos de una pena, también él me llevó.
Chorus
Al tata Dios le pido y Él lo sabe muy bien
Si me llama a su lado, en mi blanquito iré.
Chorus

My White Horse
My horse is as white as the sunrise.
Together we always go,
He is my most faithful friend.
Chorus: My horse, my horse, galloping goes,
My horse, my horse, goes and goes (or, runs and runs).
On the wings of happiness, my horse ran
and embraced by hardship, he also carried me.
To “”Daddy” God, I plead, and He knows very well
If he calls me to his side, on my white one, I will go.
