How to Help Victims of Devastating Earthquakes in Syria and Turkey
Human beings are members of a whole In the creation of one essence and soul
If one member is afflicted with pain Other members uneasy will remain
If you have no sympathy for human pain The name of human you cannot retain
Iranian Poet “Sadee”
