As a tribute to the young Iranian women fighting for their rights in Iran, the inimitable Coldplay performed Shervin Hajipour's viral song "Baraye"
Also the beautiful Golshifteh Farahani has been part of the team that night.
Baraye means For...
For a dance in the alley ;
For breaking the taboo of kissing in public;
For my sister, your sister, our sisters;
For a change in the minds of the fanatics;
For the father’s shame for empty pockets;
For the longing for an ordinary life;
For the dreams of the dumpster kids;
For this command economy;
For this polluted air;
For the dying Tehran’s landmark(Valiasr) trees;
For the Persian cheetah(Pirouz) about to go extinct;
For the unjustly banned street dogs,
For the non-stop tears;
For the loss of the downed passengers;
For the faces that smile no more;
For the students, for the future;
For this forced road to paradise;
For the national elite imprisoned;
For the Afghan refugee kids;
For this list that goes on and on;
For these meaningless hostile chants;
For houses, collapsing like card ones
For feeling peace of mind;
For the rise of sun after long-lasting nights;
For the tranquilizers and insomnia;
For the man, the homeland, the prosperity;
For the girl who wished she was a boy;
For the woman, the life, the freedom;
For freedom;
For freedom;
Fore freedom.
