About Us
Bridging cultures through the timeless beauty of Persian literature
Logo
Our logo is inspired by Pasargadae (Persian: پاسارگاد), the ancient capital of the Achaemenid Empire under Cyrus the Great (559–530 BC). This iconic site, renowned for its historical significance, is also considered the location of the Tomb of Cyrus, reflecting the grandeur and legacy of Persian heritage.

Literature Of Iranian
Started as a personal project with the mission of transferring some of the beauty of the Persian language to non-native speakers.
Overview
This project began as a personal passion, fueled by a deep love for the Persian language and a desire to share its beauty with non-native speakers around the world. What started as a simple initiative has grown into a meaningful mission to bridge linguistic and cultural divides.
Our journey
began with free-style translations, allowing us to express the rich meanings and cultural nuances embedded in Persian literature. These translations aim to go beyond literal interpretations, capturing the essence of the language in a way that resonates with those unfamiliar with Persian.
But
our vision extends further. We are committed to exploring not only the celebrated works of Persian literature but also the hidden treasures that have remained in the shadows. We seek to uncover and bring to light the lesser-known pieces, including those from poets and writers whose names may not even be recognized by many native Iranians.
Our goal
is to make these forgotten or overlooked works accessible and appreciated by a global audience, allowing the beauty and depth of Persian literature to be experienced by all.
We value your thoughts and feedback on our project. Whether you have suggestions for improvement, ideas for future translations, or simply want to share your experience, we'd love to hear from you. Your input helps us grow and ensures that we continue to make Persian literature accessible and engaging for everyone.

“All languages and cultures have their own beauty; you just need to read them!”
Chapter 1: The Whispered Tales of Childhood
In the quiet nights of my childhood, my grandmother would weave tales in Azeri, stories that wrapped me in their magic and kept me enthralled until I drifted off to sleep. Those whispered tales ignited a fascination within me, a spark that would grow as the years passed.
Chapter 2: The World Through Words
As I grew older, my love for stories led me to the rich world of classical Persian and Iranian literature. But I didn't stop there—I ventured further, exploring stories from other languages and nations, whether translated into English or Persian, or originally penned in English. Through these tales, I discovered a web of connections, a universal beauty where each story began and ended in a way that, though unique to its culture, felt strikingly familiar, like a dance of words that transcended borders.
Chapter 3: Bridging Cultures
The idea of translating Persian stories into English lingered in my mind for years. It became a quiet calling, a bridge I wanted to build between cultures, allowing others to taste the essence of Persian tales in a language more widely spoken. And so, I began. The first steps were small, but they were the beginning of a journey I've longed to take.

Chapter 1: Early Passion and Education
I was born in November 1999 in Tehran. From childhood, I had a deep passion for colors and painting, which led me into the world of art. I hold an associate degree in Graphic Design from Pars University of Architecture and Art and a bachelor's degree from Valiasr Technical and Vocational College.

Chapter 2: Artistic Philosophy and Inspiration
For me, art is the essence of life; I immerse myself in forms, colors, and details, seeing art as a means to express my emotions and inner state. Looking back, choosing art as my field of study was the best decision I made. Photography, painting, and other forms of artistic expression are present in every moment of my life, constantly inspiring me to discover the world from a fresh perspective and truly experience the beauty of life.
Chapter 3: Nature, Music, and Exploration
I am passionate about traveling to nature, which I consider a great teacher. I explore nature's colors and seek to incorporate them into my work. My faithful companion in these journeys and explorations is music, which doubles the joy of being immersed in life and art.
