Enough is a dark and atmospheric electronic music adaptation of a powerful poem by renowned Iranian poet Fereydoon Moshiri. Created by Tony Zohari, the track transforms Moshiri’s words into a haunting blend of downtempo, progressive electronica and trip-hop, combining cinematic electronic textures with an emotionally charged vocal performance.
The poem is a passionate plea against oppression, cruelty and violence. Through its recurring cry of “Enough!”, Moshiri gives voice to grieving mothers, innocent children and people enduring injustice. The music follows that emotional journey—from quiet sorrow and reflection to anger, resistance and finally a desperate plea for compassion.
This English-language adaptation aims to preserve the spirit, imagery and emotional intensity of Moshiri’s original Persian poetry while presenting it through a contemporary electronic sound.
Lyric: Enough
Shame upon you,
O lords of power…
Enough…
Enough of all this
Oppression and cruelty…
Enough.
O guardians of freedom!
Keepers of peace!
O you whose kindness
leads the world
down to the very depths of hell!
It is molten lead
That you rain upon
The hearts of the people…
Molten lead…
It is a wave of blood
Upon which you steer
Your ship of tyranny…
A wave of blood!
If you are neither blind nor deaf,
If your machine guns
Fall silent
For but a moment—
Listen…
And look.
Listen…
Listen to this “Woe!”
Of the broken-hearted mothers,
who through these nights of terror
mourn and grieve.
Listen to the cries
of children whose mothers have died,
who in every corner
weep beneath your oppression.
Look upon these fields,
Which your mercenaries,
Day and night,
Water with the blood of the people!
THE BLOOD OF THE PEOPLE!
Look upon all these people of the world,
Who, with their teeth
Clenched upon their hearts,
Moment after moment,
Endure your injustice!
Endure…
Your injustice!
From your hands,
O stone-hearted ones,
All hands are raised
To God.
Though I know…
That which knows no awakening…
Is the death-sleep
Of the innocent…
And your conscience.
With all my tears,
Again—
Despairingly—
I beg you…
Enough…
Enough…
Think of the worried mothers.
Have mercy
Upon these tender,
Newly-blooming buds of light.
Have mercy…
Enough.
