Todays Culture Corner... A Persian and a Turk walk into a bar... :) Beautiful, simple and haunting song, by Gureli, a most talented Turkish man who has starred here before on Culture Corner! The text is a poem by a great Persian, Omer Khayyam, (who i liken to Leonardo da Vinci because he knew and did way too much), and it loosely translates to: With regard to questions about the universe, nobody knows. The cloud passed Left tears on the grass Rose colored wine Suits the day Morning wind Tears the skirt of the rose Looking at the rose Flutters the heart of the nightingale (bird) These starry skies.
