Education and Its Consequences(Tadmin Bar Shi’r-i-Mullah ‘Arshi - Based on a verse of Mullah ‘Arshi) |
Though we also are happy with the progress of the young
But some complaint from the happy lips also comes with it |
We had thought education would bring economic freedom
We did not know that atheism would also come with it |
Though Shirin did honor Parviz with her presence
But she brought the ax of Farhad also with her |
Let us take the seed afresh in our hand and use it anew
We are ashamed to reap what would come out from whatever we sowed |
