1963, Forugh Farrokhzad, “فتح باغ”, in تولدی دیگر [Another Birth]:همه میدانند
که من و تو از آن روزنهٔ سرد عبوس
باغ را دیدیم
و از آن شاخهٔ بازیگر دور از دست
سیب را چیدیم- hame mi-dânand
ke man o to az ân rowzane-ye sard-e abus
bâğ râ didam
va az ân šâxe-ye bâzigar-e dur az dast
sib râ čidam - everyone knows
that you and I saw the garden
out of that cold, grim peephole
and that we plucked the apple
from that playful branch far from our hands
