Zan is a Persian song about the pain of being a woman. In the cruel world of men, there is no space, peace, and comfort for many women. I have been seeing and feeling this from my childhood which I had much more freedom than my older sister because society, education, law, constitution, and religion all is about condemning women and praising men.  Here in this song, She talks about the pain in her heart. About the suffering and tears that she feels and she complains about her destiny and talks to god that why she became a female with all of this craziness around her. I wrote this for my mom and sister, but this is about all the women.

Here are some videos from my final concert in Black Box on the 11.12.2019
