EDUCATION AND ITS CONSEQUENCES
(Tadmin Bar Shi’r‐i‐Mullah ‘Arshi ‐ Based on a verse of Mullah ‘Arshi)
Though we also are happy with the progress of the young
But some complaint from the happy lips also comes with it
We had thought education would bring economic freedom
We did not know that atheism would also come with it
Though Shirin did honor Parviz with her presence
But she brought the ax of Farhad also with her
Let us take the seed afresh in our hand and use it anew
We are ashamed to reap what would come out from whatever we sowed
