From Abdanan to Rasht, from Mashhad to Tehran and Abadan

From the thick fog of London’s streets to the snowy streets

Of Toronto, from the heart of Paris to the squares of Berlin, a voice of protest

Iranians and the cry of “Death to Khamenei” across the whole world

Have been resonating—Death to Khamenei. These

Days, the geography of the world has changed, the map of the cities of

The great metropolises of the world is being drawn by the steps of protesters who

Shout a shared name: Iran, Iran, Iran

But this cross-border roar is not just a simple gesture of sympathy

It is the direct echo of a fire that has blazed up inside

On the eighteenth and nineteenth days of Dey, when the call

Of Prince Reza Pahlavi set an ocean of people in motion inside Iran

The regime’s response was bullets and a crackdown of a kind

That contemporary history does not remember. Khamenei,

This crime is yours, we will drag you under the ground. Do not be afraid,

Do not be afraid, my sister, breathe

Reports spoke of tens of thousands of people killed

A bloody crime that was supposed to silence the people’s voice

to choke it in the throat, but instead, its echo in that

direction of the borders turned into a political explosion

You bastard, get lost. Woman, Life,

Freedom. I know many of you want to remember the

thousands murdered

on Iran's streets. But the people of Iran do

not need silence. They have been kept forcefully

silent for forty-seven years. So today I will ask you

to do something a little bit different, I ask…

I'm here in front of you. You tried to kill me,

but you couldn't.

You cannot kill all the people.

The relationship between these two populations is like lips and a cry Iranians

abroad say when in the homeland breaths are cut off

the lungs of the diaspora must inhale with all their strength The goal

is clear, to break the wall of censorship and turn the blood

shed in the alleyways of Iran into political pressure

in global capitals. These pressures are no longer merely symbolic

Lobbying that has risen from the streets of the West is a machine

The diplomacy of the Islamic Republic has been run aground by

everything from the closing of consulates and centers of regime influence to the tightening

of the noose to have the Revolutionary Guard Corps declared terrorist

These are victories that were achieved not in closed

rooms, but under the rain and cold of protest gatherings

The change in the global narrative can even be felt

in cyberspace, where major platforms

like X, by removing the emblem of the Islamic Republic and replacing it

with the authentic Lion and Sun flag, have practically stripped the regime’s shaky legitimacy

challenged the ruling power in world public opinion but

these gatherings, beyond being a protest, are drawing

the roadmap for the future, introducing an alternative this

voice is the voice of Iran’s beating heart that flows in the veins of these

gatherings, the supporters of this movement see Prince Reza

Pahlavi not only as a leader but as the only legitimate option

for the transition period, a message that is heard the same from the streets of

Tehran to Brussels: Reza Shah, rest in peace

Maybe this path has no way back and the destination is the end of the Republic

Islamic system
