To think of you is a wonderful thing,
a hopeful thing,
something like listening to the most beautiful song
from the best voice in the world.
But hope is no longer enough for me,
I no longer want to listen –
I want to sing the songs...
Nazim HIKMET, 1945
Invitation
of the event for May 2nd 2002:
The program will include Opening Reception with live music,
Remarks and a brief speech on NAZIM Selections of Nazim's
poems by readers in TURKISH and in ENGLISH Poems written
in the honor of NAZIM, A solo and group play by two anticipating
musicians.
By creation of this special event, we hope to share all
ambitions & poetic passions of all ages by reading
and/or listening of poems by Nazim (and for Nazim), one
of the most important figures in the 20th century Turkish
literature and one of the first Turkish poets who was
a fervent nationalist patriot, a socialist whose humanistic
views tran-scended barriers of race and country alongside
of a universalism and compassion which finds its roots
as much in Sufism as in ``socialist internationalism.''
