تولدی دیگر، فروغ فرخزاد / روی خاک

This is the opening of a Persian poem that speaks of the speaker's essential nature and existence. The voice presents itself as nothing but the echo of a song, neither eternal nor seeking joy in lamentation. Instead, what moves the speaker is a simple, quiet sorrow purer than any complex pleasure. The poem explores themes of transience, simplicity, and the sufficiency of melancholy over other forms of emotional experience.
