Artistic Director | Mahsa Salali

Inspired by Persian Poem "I Detest Your Faith" 
Painting "Parts" by Tasalla ​

"I Detest Your Faith" is a religious song, sang during the holy month of Muharram in Iran. Muharram is a month of commemoration in Islam. The song is often accompanied by the action of chest-beating as a form of austerity and a type mourning ritual. Women in Iran are not allowed to sing, therefore the song has never been sang by a women in public.

بیزارم از دین شما
نفرین به آئین شما
از پینه پیشانی و دلهای سنگین شما
دلهای سنگین شما
​
ای شهر بی آئین شده
ای مردم غمگین شده
ای عالمی بی دین شده
از عهد ننگین شما
از عهد ننگین شما
 
I detest your faith,
Curse your faith,
Of callus on your forehead and your stone hearts,
Your stone hearts,
 
O you faith lost town,
O you saddened people,
O you a world of lost faith,
For your disgraceful promise
For your disgraceful promise
