…Your Aroma body remained on my shirt
!…Today smell deeply
!And with every breath I grudge heavier
And I remembered that, your body has been part of soil
!And your sorrow has been mine
عــطر تنت روی پیراهنم مانده…
امــروز بـویــیدمش عمــیق عمیق…!
و با هـر نـفس بـغــضم را سـنگین تر کردم!
و به یــاد آوردم که دیـگر ، تـنـت سـهم خاک شده است…
و غمــت سـهم من!
