फिल्म ३०० के खिलाफ

मध्य एशिया पर लगाई गई गिद्ध दृष्टि में अगला संभावित शिकार है ईरान। जिसकी नींव सांस्कृतिक स्तर पर रखी जा चुकी है। यकीन न हो तो हालीवुड़ की फिल्म '300' देख लें। अचानक हालीवुड को 480 ईसा पूर्व थर्मोपिलई के युद्ध की याद क्यो आई इसे आप बखूबी समझ सकते हैं। फ्रैंक मिलर के उपन्यास पर आधारित इस फिल्म में 480 ईसा पूर्व हुए थर्मोपिलई के युद्ध का वर्णन है। निर्माता वार्नर ब्रदर्स की इस फिल्म में दिखाया गया है कि उस युद्ध में किस तरह स्पार्टा की 300 सैनिकों की एक छोटी सी सेना ने तत्कालीन पर्सिया (आधुनिक ईरान)को नेस्तनाबुत किया था।
दुनिया भर में जनमत बनाने की कमान सभ्यता के ऐसे ही लुटेरों और दंभियों के जिम्मे है। लेकिन इस सांस्कृतिक हमले का विरोध शुरू हो चुका है। इस फिल्म के प्रतिरोध में ईरानी संगीतकार और लेखक यास ने एक बेहतरीन गीत लिखा है...



अग्रेजी अनुवाद
Listen. I want to tell you my intent
They want to erase my identity
The history of the land of the Aryans
Is screaming until we come to it
So now is the time for you to hear
Iran is my land the
The country which after 7000 years
Is still standing
And the hearts of Iranians – still like the sea
Hear this, my fellow Iranian, from YAS
I too for my land stand like a soldier
Hold Iran like a gem in your hand and say
My complaint will burst out like a shot
Let's stand together and sing our anthem
My sisters, my brothers, my fellow Iranians
Iran's civilization is in danger
All of us are soldiers beneath our flag
We won't let anyone spread lies about us
For us Iranians it is our calling
That we wear the symbol of 'Farvahar' around our necks
Our unity against an enemy is the cause of their distress
Iran's name for us is an honor
And our respect for her is like a thorn in eye for those
Who want to injure her

CHORUS:

- Like the thirst of a seed [wheat] for water
- Like the dampness of rain, the smell of earth
- Like you, pure eyes, like the feeling of its earth, for you
- My land. Singing for you is in my heart
- Singing of my land, is my feeling
- My love - the earth of this land – Iraaaan.

You want to say that we came from generations of Barbarians?
So take a look then to Takht Jamshid!
You're showing Iran's name in vein
So yours could be written big on a cover of a CD [DVD}?
I'm writing down your intentions in my book
I know why you wrote this film "300"
I know that your heart is made of stone and lead
Instead of using your art to make a culture of peace
In this sensitive air and bad atmosphere
You want to start fishing in murky waters [profiting]
But this I tell you in its original language
Iran will never be spoiled and surrendered
God has given you two eyes to see
Take a look and read the books written by
Saadi and Ibn-e-Sina, Ferdosi, Khayam or Molana Rumi
Always throughout history we were the start [on top]
But now YAS can't sit down quietly
Let Iran's name be marred by a few tricksters
I'll shred your intentions with the "razor of hope"
Who are YOU to speak of the history of Iran?

- CHORUS -

It was Cyrus The Great that started the peace
Freeing the Jewish from the grip of Babylon
Cyrus The Great wrote the first bill of human rights
That is why I carry my esteem and great pride
For my Iran. The history of my land
For the earth of this land which my body is from
Whatever part of the world you live my fellow Iranian
And till your blood flows through you
Don't allow yourself to be satisfied
That anyone can fool around with your heritage
The history of Iran is my identity
Iran – protecting your name is my good intent
