The Wind Will Carry Us - Collected Poems
The Wind Will Carry Us, with the translation from the Persian original by Makbule Aras Eivazi, brings together Furuğ's five poetry books, namely Prisoner (1952), Wall (1956), Rebellion (1957), Rebirth (1963), Let's Believe in the Beginning of the Cold Season (1974). .
Furuğ Farrohzad, one of the pioneers of modern Iranian poetry, who wrote poetry because he believed that only the sound would be permanent wherever the wind takes us, and who believed that he would not be able to live if he did not write poetry, said "I am a descendant of trees": I am naked, naked, naked / naked like the silences between words of love / and all my wounds are from love / from love. , from love, from love...
The poem “The Wind Will Carry Us” also gave its name and inspired a film by the famous Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami:
Listen / Do you hear the darkness blowing / I'm all alone, watching this happiness
He was only thirty-two years old when he left this world in a tragic car accident. It is possible to read the revolutionary poetry of Furuğ, who set an example for the Iranian society with her struggle and was a pioneer woman beyond her time with the poetry she wrote, integrated with her own nature, free from falsehoods, as a struggle for life that does not compromise on human sensitivity and lyricism:
The end of all powers is to connect, to connect to the bright essence of the sun and to pour into the consciousness of light.
