Chahar-Beyti · Four-Couplet

Start

Vahid Nazemi

Was open, mercy’s gate — but you passed, oblivious

How you missed it, too easy — strange, mysterious

All you heard, was our song — soft and harmonious

Changed voices, in ears — obvious or dubious

Landscape, endless — rich and melodious

“Wanting” as PIN, and world — ATM, glorious

An officer, your grade — mind, soldier, odious

Everywhere, start line — life, game, but serious
