writes:inhis1948poemNewroz
The New Year's day is today. Newroz is back.
An ancient Kurdish festival, with joy and verdure.
For many years, the flower of our hopes was downtrodden
The fresh rose of spring was the blood of the youth
It was that red color on the high horizon of Kurd
Which was carrying the happy tidings of dawn to
remote and near nations
18. It was Newroz which imbued the hearts with such a fire
That made the youth receive death with devoted love
Hooray! The sun is shining from the high mountains
of homeland
It is the blood of our martyrs which the horizon reflects
It has never happened in the history of any nation
To have the breasts of girls as shields against bullets
Nay. It is not worth crying and mourning for the martyrs
of homeland
They die not. They live on in the heart of the nation.
26. Through our presentation we discussed a little about
Kurdish language and culture because they are like
oceans and we have discussed about only a drop in that
ocean. as we learned from the example of the rose and
the lady that stays forever ,culture is immortal and will
stay as it is and will never change, because it reminds us
the past and expects the future of our nation.
