“Every family that illuminates the soul leaves eternal beacons upon the world.”
Across the waters distance sings,
and a blue lighthouse awakens the morning;
the light advances noble and sovereign
like a lineage filled with elegance.
The black branches rise toward the sky,
tracing infinite memories;
they are ancient voices, gentle and blessed,
still blooming beyond grief.
The horizon burns in yellows,
blending the vivid red of life
with the eternal radiance of brilliance.
And the sea, like an illuminated page,
reflects within its humid gleams
the faith of a soul steadfast and never wounded.
The ancient star guards the pathways,
uniting earth, spirit, and memory;
it is a symbol of covenants and glory,
of parents, children, dreams, and destinies.
Oh Khalili, luminous family,
your name endures within the shadows;
for wherever true love grows,
eternity, in eight branches, blossoms silently.
