I'm going to share a poem with everyone here who doesn't speak Farsi.
00:05:34.560
Thank you for caring! Thank you for caring about the people of Iran.

It was written by a very famous Persian author named Saadi, a medieval poet.
00:05:49.560
And as the poem goes, human members are essence of a whole, an essence of one creation and soul.
00:06:00.560
When one member is afflicted with pain, the others uneasy will remain.
00:06:05.560
If you have no sympathy for human pain, then the name of human you cannot retain!
