به ایران رد و موبد و پهلوان
هرانکس که بودند روشن‌روان

بدین کار در پارس گرد آمدند
بسی زین نشان داستانها زدند

که این تاج شاهی سزاوار کیست؟
ببینید تا از در کار کیست؟

بجویید بخشنده‌یی دادگر
که بندد برین تخت زرین کمر

که آشوب بنشاند از روزگار
جهان مرغزاریست بی‌شهریار

Please take a moment to watch this.
It’s short but gives you a snapshot into what’s happening inside Iran right now, as world leaders struggle to know how to respond. So far it’s been mostly silence and inertia. #IranMassacre
