Iransk kvinde viser vejen på YouTube
Det her handler ikke om Neda. Det handler om en 25-årig kvinde, som har postet en video på YouTube. En video, der giver et skærende indblik i hendes tanker. Det er den mest fængende video, jeg nogensinde har set, den giver mig lyst til at lære persisk. Du kan se den på YouTube eller i playeren til venstre i sin originale version, eller med engelske undertekster her hos Ekstra Bladet ( tak til Anders Kjærulff for lige at gøre opmærksom på det). Den er lagt op 19. juni, dagen før balladen for alvor tog fat, og prøv engang at sætte filmen i gang, mens du læser kvindens egen oversættelse her:
Tonight the sound of God is Greater can be heard louder and louder than previous nights
Where is this?! Where is this place where everything has been blocked?
Where is this place where people are just shouting the name of God?
Where is this place where the sound of God is Greater can be heard louder and louder?
Everyday Im just waiting to see if there will be more and louder voices at nights?
My body trembles
…and I wonder if God trembles too?
Where is this where weve been imprisoned so innocently?
Where is this where no one gives us a helping hand?!
Where is this place, where we are getting our voices heard worldwide through our silence?
Where is this place where the blood of its young people is shed on the streets…, where people stand and pray on their blood?
Where is this place where its people are named Gangsters & Thugs?!
Where is this?
This is Iran. This is my land and yours!
This is Iran
