| Dastam Begir 🇮🇷 This recording is from the Second Baha'i World Congress in 1992. I didn't go, but friends of mine were there and sang in the choir. Narges Nouhnejad Fani sings it in Farsi. I love the melody. The words are simple. Its plaintive tone spoke to me at the time, and still does. I could sing it once upon a time. 1992... a much simpler time in my life. A relatively happy time. A house where I planted gardens. Friends that visited; friends that lived with me. Refugees I helped. Wonderful neighbors. An annual picnic in August celebrating MLK's "I have a Dream" to bring folks together. Perhaps the 'bad' moments have been forgotten. It's been a long time.
