ترانه‌ی «فریاد زیر آب»- آهنگ: بابک بیات - شعر: ایرج جنتی‌عطایی - تنظیم: واروژان - صدا: داریوش - ۱۳۵۶

Composed in 2023 for soprano Claire Fedoruk, “Living the Aftermath” is a song cycle that takes the listener through the human cycle of emotions that follow tragedy: grief, loss, heartache, denial, acceptance, meditation, peace...

The gentle lilt of meter that frameworks this charming poem seems to lend itself to the cyclic nature of life and human experiences. We continue to travel forward: “Round and round the little way, Up and down the little hill.” Dorothy Parker speaks of finding love again below “renovated skies”, of continuing to write our story over the paling ink of old lies. We never know for certain what lies ahead of us on this road, whether we shall love more or less, be a little better or a little worse. But we can be assured that “Where, unwilling, dies the rose, Buds the new, another year.”

The emotions and reactions embodied herein are: thoughtful, acceptance, resolute, grave, free, wistful, faith, cyclical.

Poem by Dorothy Parker (1893-1967).

We shall have our little day.
Take my hand and travel still
Round and round the little way,
Up and down the little hill.
It is good to love again;
Scan the renovated skies,
Dip and drive the idling pen,
Sweetly tint the paling lies.
Trace the dripping, piercèd heart,
Speak the fair, insistent verse,
Vow to God, and slip apart,
Little better, little worse.
Would we need not know before
How shall end this prettiness;
One of us must love the more,
One of us shall love the less.
Thus it is, and so it goes;
We shall have our day, my dear.
Where, unwilling, dies the rose
Buds the new, another year.
[Thus it is, and so it goes;
We shall have our day, my dear.
Where, unwilling, dies the rose
Buds the new, another year.]
