One “enemy of God’s” farewell letter to another

"Each night, they make a star to fall on earth
And the melancholic sky is crammed with stars"
 

Salutations, comrade!
 
How can I picture you? 
 
A slim young man on the gallows who smiles at the blossoming sun?
 
A barefooted kid from the exploited people of  a shantytown willing to be like bread on the empty tables of his people? Which crime can I associate you with?

The Besrani Group foundation was established by Kamaran Hasan in 2005. The foundation is attempting to introduce Kurdish mystic music and Tamoura in Iraqi Kurdistan.

Mr. Kamaran Hasan has invited some of his students who are playing the Tamoura in order to gradually obtain knowledge and experience on how to play the Tamoura as a band. The purpose of developing those students is to re-introduce the ancient Tamoura tunes. The group now tries to present the Tamoura as a model of Kurdish music. The works are influenced by the ancient Tamoura music, Tamoura Masters’ compositions, and new tunes created through the use of famous Kurdish poets.
