Twinkle Twinkle Iran's Star

Twinkle twinkle little star How I wonder what we are Tomorrow is another day We will face it with dismay Today the flowers seem to bloom Tomorrow they will mourn with gloom Tomorrow we will do the same Past and future, silly game Today I bleed, tomorrow heal Summer and winter, hideous chill Twinkle twinkle little star Mock me and my constant war There’s a moon that shines so bright Baby sleep well, stop your fight Hold your doll and close your eyes They killed your day, bad bad guys To sleep, it’s your only way We both won’t see end of may Twinkle twinkle little star Sleeping pill, won’t heal the scar

Of course this is so much more than a nursery rhyme. I am sorry that any child in any part of the world would have these things as part of her life. Well done, Ebrahm. Poets of the world unite. Love, Joyce
