The First Republic as Turning Point for the Armenian Nation: A Conversation with Professor Richard G. Hovannisian

I read this clear article …I like every Armenian to read…
I like to send my poem about Human rights to Mr. Rupen Janbazian

A Human’s Rights

Do not seize me in your cave
Open your door let me behave
To see the world in its fight
To try to protect every human right!

Let me grasp a red pen in hot hands,
Writing poems to justify rationales.
Let me write to billions of inhumane breaths;
Let them feel ashamed of sinful fights.

Let the righteous rays shine on each brain cell
To guide spirits into the right light.
Let harsh minds listen every night
To symphonies praising human rights.

I am yours, always yours.
No one can grab me by force.
I like to scream very loud . . .
Human rights are everyone’s birthright.

Let my voice from my heartiest soul,
Reach farther than both polar sites.
Let tears of the speakers on human rights
Flow like waterfalls on starved lands.

Don’t hide me in an unsown cave
I’m kind and heartily brave
I have genes to know every right,
From sunshine to moonlight.

Let all raise the faithful flag of human rights
In the suppressed corners of Crying Crowds
To detect, narrate, and prevent birthing crimes.
Let slayers confess past deeds, thus prevent further genocides*.
