I Want to Breathe
I want to really know the meadows
and give tulips to all women of my generation
because we all know how much
we have sacrificed.
I Think…
The whoop of waterfalls
The crinkles of the leaves that fall from trees and lie underfoot
All of this is about being in love
Real Love
With his ideas and poems
He rode with me on angel wings,
And placed a crown on my head,
like the queens of the seven countries

Advocate Banoo
Go ahead and break down all those doors,
closed in front of you. Remove all customs
that harm women in our society. Join
the sun’s light and smile in the face of all sadness.
Because She Is a Girl
No one thinks her long skirt is clean enough to kneel and pray on.
But her scarf is clear as a virgin sky.
How to Heal the World
When you are not with me
I say Allah Hafiz to everyone.
Without you, my beloved, I am silent, without laughter or speech.
Teach the World
Mother of mine, you can be a spokeswoman for peace,
Because you are love, honesty, and sentiment.
My Friend
My friend is like a mountain, high and quiet
