Goldie Ghamari - Morad Vaisi's Memorial to Iranian Martyrs explained and translated by Goldie Ghamari

00:00:00.000 This is, this reminds me of what Morad Vesey does.

00:00:09.080 And I've been, I've been wanting to speak about Morad Vesey for a little bit and explain.

00:00:16.060 So he spent, Morad Bessie spent his Friday evening reading the names, reading the names of 1,044 Iranians who were murdered by the regime.

00:00:46.060 so you see this video here so this video is over four like this one here it's over four

00:00:52.060 hours long it's almost four and a half hours long it has 395 000 feet so basically he he literally

00:01:01.980 just spends four and a half hours reading through the names of um 1044 names of iranians that were

00:01:12.700 murdered and when they did the math someone did the math and they were like

00:01:21.820 it took the regime less time to murder like 90 000 iranians than it then it does to read

00:01:29.180 out their names sorry guys this stuff this is the stuff that makes me a little bit um emotional okay

00:01:42.700 I'm going to play it once and then I'll go back and I'll translate, okay?

00:02:12.700 he alad, Adam kwabooki

00:02:16.700 abcadashan arame shijjibเห

00:02:18.700 hungry must have been

00:02:20.700 twenty wrong

00:02:22.700 today

00:02:24.700 we want one to give me

00:02:28.700 strangers

00:02:30.700 no one makes you

00:02:35.980 I have been

00:02:36.580 watching

00:02:37.740 there is something

00:02:38.700 that showsChef

00:02:40.700 ...

00:03:09.700 So for non-Iranians, that music is very triggering to us because the background music has

00:03:39.500 pretty much become synonymous with um mr morad veisi that that's the guy up top here not the

00:03:46.440 one who's speaking um that's become synonymous with mr morad veisi um saying the names of all

00:03:54.560 the um all the murdered iranians all the javid noms right so let me just go back let me just

00:04:00.520 translate this really quickly for you guys

00:04:02.160 so he's like

00:04:07.200 so he says mr morad veisi uh he's like a um like a like an um a reporter for iran international

00:04:28.920 You are one of the most honorable news journalists and, you know, news people that I've ever known, you know, that I've ever known.

00:04:46.860 In the last six, seven years that I've become familiar with you.

00:04:49.440 So in the last six, seven years that I've gone to know you,

00:04:58.200 every night, I listened to your voice.

00:05:00.860 I listened to your shows as I'm falling asleep.

00:05:09.280 And then he said, many of my friends have asked me, you know,

00:05:12.100 who falls asleep listening to the news.

00:05:14.040 And then he says, I told them that your voice, right, Mr. Morad Vaisi's voice has a strange

00:05:24.540 sense of, like, calming.

00:05:29.100 And then he's like, and then finally my friends understood what I mean.

00:05:32.580 So that part means child of Iran and then basically means a martyr of the homeland.

00:05:54.200 So before Morad Vaisi says the name of every single murdered Iranian, he always starts off with Parzan de Iran wa John Fadoye Mihan, which means the child of Iran and a martyr of the nation.

00:06:15.700 A martyr of the nation.

00:06:17.120 Mr. Morad Vaisi

00:06:24.360 He's like Mr. Morad Vaisi

00:06:27.380 The entire Iranian nation loves you

00:06:30.800 You have always stood behind the people

00:06:35.040 You've always been honorable

00:06:39.320 I personally, every night

00:06:47.120 watch your shows sometimes i'll even watch your shows twice and i saw even on those days where

00:07:01.940 you weren't feeling well or you were feeling down and you know you were sick

00:07:08.680 even though you had lost your voice and you could barely speak

00:07:17.120 But you still came and you still gave the news to the Iranian people.

00:07:26.540 Because you saw yourself as responsible.

00:07:30.640 He said, wouldn't it be great if like all of the news anchors and journalists and reporters

00:07:45.380 were as honorable and dedicated as you?

00:07:48.900 And he's like, which many of them are?

00:07:51.880 Or, no, wait, when he says that they're not too small, friends,

00:07:55.580 By the way, when my character says...

00:08:00.180 I would also think he as a agent would not sound familiar?

00:08:07.280 Or they would be in 2008...

00:08:13.980 I would like to give him something...

00:08:17.780 If you don't have any best to speak or alter your vaccines...

00:08:23.760 because you are the ones who are responsible.

00:08:27.760 All the soldiers and soldiers like you are with a human being,

00:08:33.760 who are not even less.

00:08:34.760 When they say they are not even less,

00:08:37.760 they say they are on their own or on their own?

00:08:40.760 They say they are on their own or on their own own?

00:08:47.760 Okay, many of them. Okay, that's what I thought. Okay.

00:08:50.760 Okay, alright, so I translated it right.

00:12:20.600 11 years old, 11 years old, 11 years old.

00:12:26.600 When he reached 700 years old, his heart was completely gone.

00:12:31.600 But he still had to go.

00:12:33.600 When he reached 900 years old, he still had to go.

00:12:38.600 But he still had to go.

00:12:41.600 Mr. Mr. Vaisi, you are very beloved for us.

00:12:45.600 In the days when some of the people who publish their prayers,

00:12:49.600 some of the people who are quitting the Qur'an,

00:12:52.600 you have to publish their name.

00:12:54.600 You have to finish their country's name.

00:12:59.600 You have to finish their country's name.

00:13:01.600 You have to do it.

00:13:07.600 Okay, so let me go back and I'll translate this.

00:13:10.600 So he's like, I don't know about you if you were watching Morad Vaisi's YouTube channel when he was reading out the names of all of the Iranian heroes who had been murdered by the regime.

00:13:31.400 And then, you know, these are all photos of Iranians who've been murdered.

00:13:36.580 He's like, I don't know if you were watching that. 0.59

00:13:38.620 And then he's like, but I did.

00:13:39.660 I was watching it.

00:13:40.600 He's like, with every name that Murad Vaisi announced, he had to swallow, he had to suppress

00:14:03.600 like his like like he would um he would almost start sobbing and he would have to like push it

00:14:09.780 down like he'd have to he'd have to stop himself from from sobbing no he would he would get like

00:14:17.800 a lump he would get a lump in his throat from like sadness and he had to like push down the

00:14:22.860 lump i don't know how to say that in english i know there's like a phrase for it but

00:14:26.840 every name that he offered after the tradition he said

00:14:33.600 So he's like, um, every name, every name that he would say after, after saying the number.

00:14:46.460 Yeah.

00:14:47.240 Swallowing his tears.

00:14:48.380 Yeah.

00:14:48.940 Basically like swallowing his tears.

00:14:50.760 Yeah.

00:14:51.680 So he's saying after, after every name that he announced and after every name and number

00:14:57.160 that he announced.

00:14:58.100 He would also say, which again, means child of Iran, and then again, a martyr for the nation.

00:15:16.240 Yeah, he would get, that's the right word. He would get choked up. He would get choked up

00:15:19.620 after saying every name. And so he would say that every time. So after every name,

00:15:26.360 he would say and he would say that um for each name to make sure that the name was not just a

00:15:42.180 number right like he wasn't just he wasn't just uh going through the names for the sake of going

00:15:48.000 through the names he was he was taking time to honor every single person um by referring to them

00:15:55.220 and because he wanted to make sure

00:16:06.640 that every single one of them

00:16:08.120 would be recognized as a hero

00:16:11.300 as a hero and martyr for the nation.

00:16:19.720 And then he's saying

00:16:20.840 for every name that he announced

00:16:23.600 if that person was under 18 years old.

00:16:31.840 So he's like, for any name that he mentioned

00:16:36.000 that was under 18, basically a child,

00:16:39.000 he would repeat the child's name three times.

00:16:46.720 So, yazdah saleh means 11 years old.

00:16:50.380 Yazdah means 11 and then saleh is years old.

00:16:53.260 So, 11 years old, 11 years old, 11 years old.

00:17:00.580 When he got to the, you know, 700s,

00:17:08.440 his voice had become very tired.

00:17:12.400 He was basically losing his voice when he got to like the 700s.

00:17:16.880 However, he still continued.

00:17:18.820 When he reached number 900

00:17:24.880 He himself was not only had he lost his voice

00:17:30.320 He himself was visibly tired

00:17:32.720 However, he still continued

00:17:38.800 Dear Mr. Moradavaisi

00:17:44.720 You are very dear to us

00:17:48.820 what's that

00:17:58.580 oh tazbi tazbi okay i see i see okay so he's saying dear mr morad veisi you have a lot of honor

00:18:16.580 um during these days it has been during during the days where you know people are are counting

00:18:25.380 their um their prayer beads right um it's like the equivalent to a rosary but it's like the

00:18:31.700 muslim version right so he's saying like in in those days where you know people are counting

00:18:37.120 the rosary like counting the beads the prayer beads the muslim prayer beads so he's basically

00:18:41.780 referring to um the the islamic regime right the people who've murdered the iranians right he's

00:18:49.060 like so in days where those people are you know praying to allah counting their muslim praying

00:18:53.460 beads and you know some of them some of them are reading the the quran they're reading the quran

00:19:01.860 Instead, instead of doing that, you are counting and reading out the names of our martyrs,

00:19:13.520 of our Javidnam.

00:19:14.520 He repeats himself, he's like, you are repeating the names, you are reciting the names of our

00:19:30.620 fallen martyrs or Javid nams. And then he says, which means I salute your honor. I salute your

00:19:41.300 Sharaf. There you go. And then it ends with Farzande Iran. Okay. So now that I shared those two

00:19:55.860 videos with you, I want to, I want to share with you a little bit of the actual video itself.

00:20:05.820 The one from Mr. Morad Baisi himself. So this is what, this is what he was doing on Friday night.

00:21:13.600 the date and time in america so he says today today in this live in this live stream i'm going

00:21:33.720 to recite the names of 1,044 martyrs, Iranians who've been murdered by the Islamic regime.

00:21:48.320 Before I start reading the names of these dear loved ones, I want to say a few points.

00:22:03.720 So these, you know, these are our beloved, like our beloved people, our martyrs, our heroes.

00:22:17.360 They didn't want to die or be killed.

00:22:24.600 They wanted to live.

00:22:27.460 With their hopes and dreams

00:22:34.820 Families

00:22:38.500 And so they wanted to live with their hopes and dreams

00:22:46.780 And their families and loved ones

00:22:49.020 And the future that they deserved

00:22:51.200 No, he's not in Iran, he's in the United States 1.00

00:22:53.440 But the criminal Islamic regime 0.97

00:23:02.080 So he's saying, but the criminal Islamic regime took that right away from them. 1.00

00:23:13.340 So the murderous Islamic regime took the right away from all of these Iranians 0.97

00:23:19.480 to have hopes and dreams and families and to live their life. 0.97

00:23:27.100 The regime took all that away from them.

00:23:28.980 So he's saying each and every one of them were a child of this ancient and beautiful

00:23:46.660 land of iran wait did i do this properly now there we go

00:23:53.260 um so they were all children of iran and because they were fighting for freedom and fighting to

00:24:09.340 to reclaim the land from the Islamic regime.

00:24:20.340 So in order to reclaim Iran and free and liberate Iran from the Islamic regime, they took to the streets.

00:24:32.340 They went to the streets to fight for freedom because they were owed freedom.

00:24:37.340 the streets because they're owed freedom and he said it was their right it's our right 0.89

00:24:46.940 to demand freedom they went to the streets to chant slogans against the islamic regime

00:24:59.900 which was their right. 0.96

00:25:16.600 Yeah, like fighting against the regime, speaking against the regime, it was their right.

00:25:20.780 because because people are supposed to be um the people are supposed to be in charge of the

00:25:32.620 government right the government is supposed to be answerable to the people and so he's saying

00:25:41.680 because um governments um and you know governments are supposed to be accountable to the people and

00:25:47.240 people don't want them oh yeah there you go thank you so you know the the right of yeah so so they

00:25:53.560 went to the streets to ask for regime change which is their right because people because the regimes

00:26:00.120 are accountable to the people and if the people don't want regime don't want that government it's

00:26:06.760 their right to say so and that government must go right and something new come in

00:26:17.240 And, you know, if and when people demand it,

00:26:23.560 they should be able to reclaim control of the country

00:26:27.720 from a dictatorship or a regime if they don't see it as legitimate. 0.84

00:26:36.200 He's like, so guys, the word haq means right.

00:26:41.400 So he says, this is the right of every nation.

00:26:44.500 and, of course, this is the right of the Iranian nation. 0.96

00:26:53.020 It's like, but the people that went to the streets

00:26:55.520 and survived and lived

00:26:59.300 So he's saying,

00:27:06.020 the people who went to the streets and survived,

00:27:11.660 um their work and their efforts are just as valuable um as those who um lost their lives

00:27:21.460 as am i doing okay with the translation um but i'm trying my best thank you

00:27:38.580 I know Armin's usually better at this, but I hope I'm doing an okay job, guys.

00:27:51.480 And then he says some of them, some of them sacrificed their lives for the country, for the میهن.

00:28:01.120 Aw, thank you, guys. Sipos. That's so kind of you, guys. Aw.

00:28:08.580 So he's like, tens of thousands of other Iranians are currently imprisoned and their lives are at risk.

00:28:28.340 And hundreds of thousands of injured Iranians are currently hiding, hiding in their homes.

00:28:38.580 I don't know. I can't take, I don't know what that is, guys. I can't take that off.

00:28:43.680 It's there. I don't know what that is.

00:28:50.140 I've already subscribed.

00:28:54.500 I can't take the symbol off. It's there. It's part of the video.

00:28:57.200 Anyway, so he says, and hundreds of thousands of injured Iranians

00:29:06.140 are currently hiding in their homes because as you guys know as we've said um those Iranians

00:29:13.380 who have tried to um who have tried to go to hospitals to seek medical attention

00:29:20.220 um the regime has gone and has murdered them there too like they did the regime just goes

00:29:24.360 and they just shoot people in the forehead right so many many Iranians um like hundreds

00:29:29.660 Hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands of Iranians need medical attention are not going to hospitals because if they go, they will be murdered by the regime.

00:29:59.660 So he says the sacrifice, the sacrifice of these heroes is a heavy burden on the rest,

00:30:06.320 a heavy burden for the rest of us who are on the path and on the road to, you know,

00:30:14.560 revolution and victory and liberation.

00:30:17.280 Then he says,

00:30:26.640 Tonight, I'm going to read the names of 1044 of these Javid Noms, these heroes, who have lost their lives.

00:30:40.840 and he's a so he says um this 1000 these 1044 names this is this 1044 is of the tens of thousands

00:30:57.360 of of um iranians who have been murdered so this is just a very very small um

00:31:04.460 small sample size right very very small fraction of the total number

00:31:09.980 So he's like, the names that I'm about to share with you are the names of those martyrs,

00:31:29.080 those heroes that I've shared with you in the last, you know, 40-50 days on Iran International

00:31:38.040 and on my youtube channel because again he's he's a host on iran international

00:31:41.920 and then he says dear families

00:31:46.920 he says dear families if the name of your loved one is not among the list of names that i'm about

00:31:59.180 to read?

00:32:06.960 So he says, Dear families, if the name of your loved one is not among the list of 1044

00:32:13.380 names that I'm about to read, I am sincerely and deeply apologizing to you.

00:32:29.180 He says, I will continue reading the names in the days ahead and in the weeks ahead, like new names.

00:32:41.460 So he says, I will continue this until I have read the name of every single hero who has lost

00:33:07.940 their lives to the regime so that we can make sure that their names are forever

00:33:14.900 recorded in history books and that and that they're not forgotten.

00:33:23.380 So,

00:33:26.420 means we will not forgive and we will not forget.

00:33:31.540 which means we won't forgive and which means we won't forget

00:33:37.940 and then he says um the the the greetings the greetings of the iranian people

00:35:44.100 of happening one of the you know it's like a almost like a cultural phenomenon is whenever

00:35:50.360 um Murad Vesey um whenever he he reads the names of Iranians who've lost their lives so

00:35:57.740 usually during his live streams you know he'll he'll give the news he'll talk a little bit about

00:36:02.680 you know, things, news updates. And then towards the end of his live stream, he dedicates a section

00:36:09.660 to reading the names of, you know, the honored, the fallen, right? So he takes, you know, he

00:36:19.620 dedicates this portion of his live stream to reading the names of Iranians who've passed

00:36:27.480 away he's been murdered by the regime and when he does that Iranians who are watching his live

00:36:34.840 stream no matter where they are in Iran or around the world they stand they stand and they salute 0.68

00:36:41.820 and I've seen videos of this on Instagram where you know Iranians are like you know filming their

00:36:47.560 parents or filming someone else and during the time when Morad Vesey is reading the names

00:36:53.620 um Iranians will stand and they'll salute uh in honor of of the fallen fallen heroes but what

00:37:01.740 he's saying here is that you know during during this reading because I don't know if it's going

00:37:08.120 to take one hour or two hours um please you know be comfortable to honor the the fallen heroes

00:37:15.720 however you see fit because it might not be possible to stand for you know two hours and

00:37:22.200 you know it's really heartbreaking here when he says two hours because he thinks

00:37:26.040 he thinks that it's going to take him two hours to read 1044 names and it actually takes him you

00:37:32.120 know over four hours so he says so so feel free to honor um however however you see fit

00:37:52.200 And then he wants, and then he says before reading, I want to thank my dear spouse for helping gather and organize the list of all of these names I'm about to read.

00:38:10.060 And then he also thanks his daughter for helping him write this little portion here

00:38:22.280 that he says at the beginning.

00:38:30.480 And then he also thanks his co-workers at Iran International for, you know, supporting

00:38:37.160 him in this endeavor.

00:38:40.060 So he says, I'm going to read the names in alphabetical order, of course, according to the alphabetical order of the Persian language, Persian alphabet.

00:39:04.200 it and then he says i apologize in advance if some names are out of order or if maybe i repeat a name

00:39:13.240 or if if there's like name repetition i apologize you know i i've tried my best to make sure the

00:39:18.680 list is um you know accurate

00:39:34.200 So he says, I'm now going to start reading all of the names.

00:39:38.560 I've written all of the names on these cards.

00:39:41.680 You see, he was holding like index cards.

00:39:43.880 So he says, I've written all the names on these cards.

00:39:46.720 And now I'm going to, with your permission, begin reading the names.

00:39:52.080 so this is aziz shumara yik iran which means aziz means like like dearest so um it's like

00:40:09.360 how do i how do i say that aziz shumara yik iran like um beloved okay yeah it's beloved so it's

00:40:19.280 like beloved number one of iran okay so beloved number one of iran and again beloved number one

00:40:26.820 doesn't mean um um like the most beloved right it's it's just a very respectful and polite way

00:40:35.360 of saying yeah beloved number one of iran so it's just uh it's just a very respectful and polite way

00:40:43.120 of referring to someone so basically instead of just saying you know number one and then saying

00:40:48.000 the name he always starts with beloved out of out of respect right so so he says beloved number one

00:40:56.160 again i've explained that so far than the iran means child of iran john fada

00:41:09.120 means martyr of of the country, martyr of the nation, the homeland.

00:41:18.640 So Javed Nam means eternal name. That's what we refer. That's, you know, an honorary way of

00:41:26.100 referring to the people who've been murdered. So he says Javed Nam Mohsin Ibrahim Zadeh.

00:41:32.000 Mohsin Ibrahim Zadeh, that's the name.

00:41:34.080 37 years old.

00:41:37.460 19 day, Tehran, Aziz.

00:42:13.140 So you're going to see.

00:42:14.140 So he basically follows this pattern for the rest of the four hours.

00:42:19.440 So he always starts off with Azize, Shomareyeh, and then he gives the number.

00:42:25.700 So Shomareh means number.

00:42:27.620 So he says, Azize, Shomareyeh. 0.94

00:42:31.100 Now he's going to go to Seh.

00:42:32.240 So, beloved number three,

00:42:35.340 and then he's going to say the name,

00:42:40.160 and then he's going to say the person's age,

00:42:42.460 and then he's going to say the city that they're from.

00:42:44.760 And then he does that 1,044 times.

00:42:51.880 Okay.

00:46:59.320 No breaks

00:47:11.940 978

00:47:16.440 Let's just go to the end now.

00:47:46.440 those those like those who know him those who watch him like we can tell that he's tired

00:47:52.420 because usually he has um you know he's very he's got like a you know he's got a lot of energy

00:47:58.540 he's you know very sort of boisterous he's very positive but here it's just you can you can see

00:48:04.160 the emotional toll on him right

00:48:16.440 So this is the second last one.

00:48:19.980 Now he just said 1043, which is 1043.

00:48:26.580 And then he says,

00:48:42.360 which means the name of the last beloved that i will read today right because we're now at

00:48:57.320 person number 1044 beloved number 1044 of iran

00:49:12.360 So Iraja Yusufi, that was his name.

00:49:18.420 He was 49.

00:49:20.740 He lived in the city of Arak and he was a father.

00:49:35.340 So he's like, these names, that took me about four and a half hours to read for you tonight.

00:49:42.360 So he's like, the names that I've read for you tonight are the names that I previously mentioned in the last, you know, 40-50 days, either on Iran International or on his own podcast here, on his own live here.

00:50:04.500 He's like, I apologize to families if the name of your loved one was not in the list tonight.

00:50:19.720 He's like, I will read more names, new names in the future.

00:50:25.980 He says, I apologize to families if I mispronounced a name or said it incorrectly.

00:50:44.780 Then he says, I also apologize if I accidentally repeated a few names that I may have read before.

00:50:55.980 and he says and last night my my um my dear spouse was helping me for about 10 to 12 hours

00:51:13.020 to prepare this list and get it ready and he said uh helped me to like go find

00:51:22.700 the the names and information for each person right so not just the names but you know the age

00:51:29.660 um where they're from and you know any other additional information they might have about

00:51:35.420 these beloved people who have been murdered by the regime means exactly that it means um

00:51:46.460 getting more detailed information about them.

00:51:56.200 And he says maybe there were some parts

00:52:00.740 where the information may not have been entirely accurate

00:52:03.180 or there was some repetition.

00:52:08.280 Again, you know, I apologize if maybe some of the information

00:52:12.060 was not accurate or there was repetition.

00:52:16.460 I will try to, you know, if that happened, I will try my best to make sure that in future readings of the names of martyrs, to do better with the research if I said anything incorrectly.

00:52:34.860 Then he says, you know, he goes back to the list.

00:52:41.520 So he's like, these were our beloveds who gave their lives on the path to freedom, on the road for freedom for our country.

00:52:57.800 And, you know, they were trying to reclaim Iran from the Islamic regime.

00:53:02.380 So, جمهوریه اسلامی, right, جمهوریه اسلامی translates to Islamic Republic. 0.58

00:53:13.820 So, he says, you know, the Iranian nation salutes every single one of our beloveds who have been murdered by the Islamic regime.

00:53:32.380 And he says, and also salutations to all of these heroes and martyrs.

00:53:39.860 John Fadon, right?
