BORDERS

Adored land, my country,

a love that I had lost..

if you had been remote in an inaccessible sky or at a summit of the world

I would have known how to run to you even with iron shoes.

But a narrow distance separates you from me..

The invader calls it a border.

Kurds are an ethnic group indigenous to a region called Kurdistan spanning parts of Turkey, Iraq, Iran, and Syria. They have long sought the creation of an independent Kurdish nation due to historic repression and the denial of autonom. Despite partial autonomy in Iraq and Syria, the demand for a separate nation remains unresolved, with Kurdish nationalism still actively suppressed in several countries.
