Shervin - Baraye | شروین - برای

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baraye

"Baraye..." (Persian: برای..., meaning "For..." or "Because of...") is a 2022 protest song by Shervin Hajipour, inspired by the death of Mahsa Amini and its aftermath.

After the death of Mahsa Amini and the start of the protests, an Internet meme was spread through the social media (and Twitter in particular), by which (through phrases starting with the word "for") the users explained their personal reasons for protesting and wishing for regime change in Iran.

Trying to capture the essence of these sentiments, Hajipour wrote each verse of the lyrics based on a separate tweet. The resulting text touches upon several topics in need of change, including: low life satisfaction, women's rights, children's rights, the rights of refugees, animals rights, environmental concerns, recession and poverty, theocracy and outdated social and religious taboos, militarism and political corruption, local corruption, freedom of speech, and the government's hostility against other countries.

On 29 September 2022 Hajipour was arrested for the song "Baraye". He was forced to remove the song from his social media platforms by the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps's security agents shortly after his arrest.

English lyrics:

For dancing in the streets freely

For our fear of kissing our loved ones

For my sister, your sister, our sisters

For the renewal of the rusted minds

For embarrassed fathers with empty hands

For the sigh over an ordinary life

For the child of labor and his dreams

For this dictatorial economy

For this polluted air

For “Valiasr”street and it’s worn trees

For the extinction of Persian cheetahs

For the murdered innocent street dogs

For all the unstoppable tears

For the image of repeating this moment

For the smiling faces

For the students and their future

For this compulsory heaven

For elites in prison

For the Afghan kids

For all these non-repetitive “For’s”

For all these meaningless slogans

For all these collapsed buildings

For the feeling of peace

For sunrise after long dark nights

For the sedative and insomnia pills

For man, motherland, prosperity

For the girl who wished to be born as a boy

For woman, life, freedom

For freedom

For freedom
