Farahos



















The mighty nation of the day
May not be mighty tomorrow.

One day they will be
On the pages of history
And the ruins of archeology.

Students and researchers
Will read them:
A history of cruelty and despotism.

This is the history
Of the rise and fall of
The mighty nations.

Farahos of the day
Will be in the museum
And the visitors will curse them.

This is the tragedy of the history
Nobody learns from it.

Oh brothers and sisters
Of this sweet planet
Do you remember Farahos?
What are they doing now?
