Iranian of the Day

Fanoos jaan, that is (was) the problem

Khomeini or Democracy, nobody (almost) could tell the difference.  

she is not reciting Shahnameh in this clip

but as she talks, she notes that she is khordsaltareen Shahnameh khaan. If you listen to what she recites, it is obvious that it is not shahnameh. For instance, she refers to what Khozestan did for Iran which I believe is a reference to Iran Iraq war. However, this seems to be what she recited after winning a competition for Shahnameh Khaani.

VPK and others . . .

VPK jan and others, I have been meaning to start an effort in this regard... give me a few days.  I will post a blog soon.  We need to support people who preserve Iran's heritage.

The next question is ....

Why is she being taught verses that are not from the Shahnameh to pass off as Shahnameh? 

Just for the record: I AM a "cheap talker"...

...so that those who are quick to turn any discussion into a character judging exercise, are aware.

Ferdosi or Hossein Kord Shabestari!

I can't tell the difference! Is LENZIRAN an IRR propaganda outfit? Although the little girl is so adorable and a precious little angel!

Very nice but

Mehrban got a point because I don't recognize the words as Shahnameh. Nevertheless I give her a high mark and praise for having her heart in the right place. 

Anyway it is great to see kids interested in Shahnameh. Much of the credit will go to her parents. Good for them; good for Iran and for the children.

I agree that we should put our money in scholarships. Is there a place to go to make anonymous donations.

Sorry but.....

Is she really reciting Shahnameh?

Talk, Talk, Cheap, Cheap . . .

As the saying goes… talk is cheap.  If you really want to preserve Iran’s Heritage, you must put money where your mouth is.  How about establishing a scholarship in the name of Ferdosi to give to children (both Iranians and non-Iranians) who recite Shahnameh?  Can you spare $1,000 each for this purpose?  Based on my working among Iranians for over 40 years, I doubt many would contribute financially . . . so the talk is cheap.

Love her accent

And her smarts.

We are all iranians

Fars Turk Kurd Lor Arab.......The word is Iranian not Persian Iranian.

Arab Baloch Lor Ghashghaee Turk Fars Lak Gilak ....

Great job, I love the "bo ad"

I love how rather than saying "bovad", she says "boad". I just know enough Lori to know where that comes from :).

Beautiful & Amazing

I am proud. There is hope to save this country

Sophie Kia چونکه ما تاریخمان بر باد رفت ،هستی و فرهنگمان بر خاک رفت، کاوه وآرش همانجا خاک شد، پهلوان کشورم عباس شد، جای کوروش را علی آمد گرفت ، کل آن آتشکده آتش گرفت رستم و سهرابها گم می کنیم ،تازی ناموس خود بت می کنیم ، نقش رستم ، تخت جمشید خاک شد.کربلا و کاظمین آباد شد ، رسم زرتشت را اگر دانی که چیست، عید ما جشن غدیر و فطر نیست ، ای عزیزان جملگی همت کنیم ، سنت اعراب خاکستر کنیم

Defending our Culture

Our best use of our energies is to elevate Iranians collective
conscience so when the Regime is brought down we can face our future
difficulties with grace and Stand for Iranian Patriots and be aware of what it is to be used as a tool to betray patriots.

Isn't this more beautiful

....than that kid who was trained to recite the Koran like a parrot? 

Pedar va Madare in bache dokhtar  ra esteghbal mikonam ta pedar madare un pesare ke maghze bachashun ra alude mikonan ba hefz kardane ghoran.
