Even if Our Generation Gets Buried
Even if our generation gets buried1Another flower sprouts from our souls
In every step, a star has slept in the grave
These new graves that have our trace
The beautiful lip that has sweet Farsi inside
It became bitter when it heard about this event
The clouds of universe wept constantly
But grief of the universe did not heal
Now many roses that we have put next to each other
At the spring they are our gift
Our school bag and book flap in the air
With our kite and the yarn of our rainbow
Yes, how bright the sun of my land is
With the dance of our sweet daughters' bag and book
We are people of germination. From our blood and grave
...our young and fresh bud has raised
Father's soul, where are you?23 now get up
Put our bones in the bow

In the Persian/Farsi dialect of Afghanistan, Father's soul [Jaane Padar] is the most romantic and shortest sentence a father uses to call his child. - 3. This song is about that event
