I came through the alleyways of Shemiran
The desert, and sand dunes of Pars Reciting Hãfez, Saâdï, and Rumï Through a thousand cities and towns I crossed many alleyways and streets Trying not to forget Ferdowsï There are alleyways everywhere in the world Some are lined with cobblestones and flowerpots Others reek of poverty and excrement Today, many are hoping for new pathways to walk through Mine's been a journey that has taken a lifetime Along the way, I have learned that our lives are molded, Not by the knowledge that we gain But by the choices that me make! I've been lucky to find a way out of adversity Learn medicine, and serve my fellowman All the while hoping not to forget The choices that brought me today. So I teach my children and students to be wary of their choices For the reason of the roundness of the world Is for the future to stay hidden beyond its curve Be careful in choosing your options And hope to walk the alleyways of happiness.
