Persian Poems for Children<\/span><\/h3>\n

Translated by Keith Thomas<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

In the last issue of Peyk<\/i>, we introduced you to a talented language enthusiast, Keith Thomas, who learned Persian during the COVID-19 pandemic using YouTube and other social media means. Thomas is mostly fascinated with Persian poetry and has been translating poems into English\u2014not only classic and modern poetry, but also poems for children, which he translated and sent to us. With the exception of \u201cTavalod,\u201d the most popular \u201cbirthday anthem\u201d in Iran, the rest are what most Iranian children learn and recite in nursery, kindergarten, and elementary schools.<\/p>\n

You will notice that Thomas is aware of the danger of translating poetry. He is faithful to the poems\u2019 meanings and skillfully adheres to rhyme and rhythm. He wrote: \u201cThe following poems were selected by Ghazal Dastan and she contributed significantly to their translation. Since these types of poems are often accompanied by music when recited, the rhythm, meter, and rhyme scheme of the translations follow the originals as closely as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

Hello my yellow pencil friend
\nI’ve gone and drawn a sketch again
\nOh hey my blue pencil buddy
\nNap time’s through so let’s get ready<\/p>\n

While your color fills up the sky
\nYour friend tends to the sun up high
\nI’d like to plant grass on the ground
\nBut the right color can’t be found<\/p>\n

Use blue for grass? You surely jest!
\nAnd yellow grass is not the best
\nBlue and yellow, would you rather
\nWork alone or work together?<\/p>\n

Now we’re a team this lovely scene
\nHas fields that gleam in pretty green
\nAdd both your colors here until
\nThat grass is planted on the hill<\/p>\n

The Rain<\/b><\/h3>\n

by Parvin Dolat Abadi<\/p>\n

Clouds rolled in, some black and some white
\nThe sky was soon tucked out of sight<\/p>\n

The rain came, fell drop by drop
\nFilling the homes’ pools to the top<\/p>\n

Sitting on flower petals
\nOn bonny buds it settles<\/p>\n

On stalks of wheat it douses
\nOn all the people’s houses<\/p>\n

Giving a bath to trees’ leaves
\nAs between branches it weaves<\/p>\n

The rain came, fell drop by drop
\nPattered down on the rooftop<\/p>\n

Sunlight, Moonlight<\/b><\/h3>\n

by Parvin Dolat Abadi<\/p>\n

Sunlight, moonlight, each color
\nAs pretty as the other<\/p>\n

One provides the day with light
\nOne illuminates the night<\/p>\n

One is bright like yellow gold
\nOne is silver, mellow, cold<\/p>\n

A beam from the sun is bound
\nTo splash down upon the ground<\/p>\n

One sent by the lovely moon
\nAll across the world is strewn<\/p>\n

Sunlight, moonlight, each color
\nAs pretty as the other<\/p>\n

Breeze<\/b><\/h3>\n

by Mostafa Rahman Doost<\/p>\n

I have got a friend
\nAs kind as can be<\/p>\n

Her home is the sky
\nShe\u2019s there eternally<\/p>\n

Her soft gentle hand
\nCaresses my cheeks<\/p>\n

My ears hear music
\nEvery time she speaks<\/p>\n

She\u2019s calm and joyful
\nThat\u2019s why her name\u2019s Breeze<\/p>\n

Call her good father
\nSir Wind if you please<\/p>\n

One Hundred Rubies<\/b><\/h3>\n

by Mostafa Rahman Doost<\/p>\n

One hundred rubies, all packed in a group
\nNeatly arranged, they form one great troop<\/p>\n

Crimson flushed, each one like the rest
\nAn ivory heart beats in each grain’s chest<\/p>\n

Gems tucked away, within a soft case
\nPlaced by God’s hand, kept under his grace<\/p>\n

Both sweet and sour, yet juicy all the same
\nSuch splendid scarlet; pomegranate is its name<\/p>\n

*The last two lines of this poem were switched to save the reveal of the pomegranate\u2019s identity for the last line.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

The artist\u2019s loyal device
