love song lyrics

"Dov'e L'Amore"


I cannot tell you of my life
Here is my story

I'll sing a love song
Sing it for you alone
Though you're a thousand miles away
Love's feeling so strong

Come to me baby
Don't keep me waiting
Another night without you here
And I'll go crazy

There is no other there is no other
No other love can take your place
or match the beauty of your face
I'll keep on singing till the day
I carry you away

With my love song


Where are you now my love?
I need you here to fold me

Whispered so sweetly
Feel my heart beating
I need to hold you in my arms
I want you near me


I sing for you
I Sing for You..

CHER

global warming





Goodbye earth:


The poster that I designed has two meanings

First: showing the earth that is going to be hot (showing it in the place of the sun)

Second: as we know the earth and all of its belongs will die by the high probable effect of global warming and sunset is a symbol of die.


So I combine these two ideas in the poster that you see.
Another thing that is considerable in this poster is two small boys who watch the sunset.
It shows that our children will face this problem that we make it now.

Overall I make a sad scene to show the feelings about GLOBAL WARMING.

Wing symbols






1) Wings, often associated with birds, represent speed, elevation, freedom and aspiration.


2) Wings associated with angels are spiritual, symbolizing enlightenment, guidance and protection - to be taken under the wing - and inspirational.


3) Wings associated with butterflies, dragonflies, fairies, mythological winged creatures like dragons, griffins, and the winged-horse Pegasus, have an element of the magical about them. As in alchemy and magic, wings can be transformational, allowing an individual access to a previously unattainable state. The presence of wings allows the combination of different elements, earth and sky, wind and fire.

The haft sin


Haft Sîn (هفت سین) or the seven 'S's is a major tradition of Nowruz. The haft sin table includes seven items specific starting with the letter S or Sīn (س) in persian alphabet. The items symbolically correspond to seven creations and holy immortals protecting them. Originally called Haft Chin (هفت چین), the Haft Sin has evolved over time, but has kept its symbolism. Traditionally, families attempt to set as beautiful a Haft Sīn table as they can, as it is not only of traditional and spiritual value, but also noticed by visitors during Nowruzi visitations and is a reflection of their good taste.
The Haft Sin items are:
1)sabzeh - wheat, barley or lentil sprouts growing in a dish - symbolizing rebirth
2)samanu- a sweet pudding made from wheat germ- symbolizing affluence
3)senjed - the dried fruit of the oliester tree - symbolizing love
4)sīr - garlic - symbolizing medicine
5)sīb - apples- symbolizing beauty and health
6)somaq - sumac berries - symbolizing (the color of) sunrise
7)serkeh - vineger - symbolizing age and patience
Other items on the table may include:
Sonbol - hyacint(flower)
Sekkeh - Coins - representative of wealth
traditional Iranian pastries such as baghlava, toot, naan-nokhodchi
dried nuts, berries and raisins (Aajeel)
lit Candles(enlightenment and happiness)
a mirror(symbolizing cleanness)
decorated eggs, sometimes one for each member of the family (fertility)
a bowl of water with goldfish(life within life, and the sign of pisces which the sun is leaving)
a bowl of water with an orange in it (the earth floating in space)
rose water for its magical cleansing powers
a holy book (e.g., the Qur'an, Avesta, Bible, Torah, or kitab-i-aghdas,) and/or a poetry book (almost always either the shahnama or the Divan of hafez)

islam symbol



The crescent moon and star symbol actually pre-dates Islam by several thousand years. Information on the origins of the symbol are difficult to ascertain, but most sources agree that these ancient celestial symbols were in use by the peoples of Central Asia and Siberia in their worship of sun, moon, and sky gods. There are also reports that the crescent moon and star were used to represent the Carthaginian goddess Tanit or the Greek goddess Diana.

heart symbol










This sign commonly used to represent the heart has actually been around for thousands of years. Have you ever wondered where it came from? The symbol, it turns out, is actually a combination of other ideograms. It incorporates the symbols for fire/flight (from the middle ages) along with its equivalent counterpart from the open sign structures. The heart symbol also incorporates the symbol which represents togetherness. These symbols can all be seen below.








The heart symbol has a meaning amongst religions as well. Among Christians, it stands for charity and hope. Buddhists, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Taoists, and Celts see the symbol as having a positive meaning as well. Some signs are commonly associated with the heart symbol. For instance, a heart with an arrow through it represents directed energy, flow, or penetration (a relationship with Cupid, god of love). The combination of the star and heart signs represent happiness or joy.
The heart symbol has so many meanings and has been around for thousands of years, but why has it become such a popular sign? It's popularity most probably stems from the romantic view that early cultures had of the heart. The heart to them was not simply a mechanical pump but the center of all thought and emotion.




The symbol of my character




Each person has many characteristic features. Sometimes some of them are special or unusual. We can show each of these features by using the symbols that are related to them. Most of the characteristic features has their own symbol but for some of the special ones that you can’t find any famous symbol, you can make it by your own idea But it should made thoughtfully and be clear enough to show the feature as well as possible.
I decide to describe each feature separately and choose a symbol for that and at the end
Combine all of them with each other in a single shape and present it as a logo.

logo design








  • Logo design is an important area of graphic design and one of the most difficult to perfect. The logo (ideogram), is the image embodying an organization. Because logos are meant to represent companies' brands or corporate identities and foster their immediate customer recognition, it is counterproductive to frequently redesign logos.

    A fictitious logotype: Narrow colour range and recognizable design.
    When designing (or commissioning) a logo, practices to encourage are to
    1)avoid going overboard in attempting uniqueness
    2)use few colors, limited colors, spot colors avoid gradients (smooth color transitions) as a 3)distinguishing feature
    4)produce alternatives for different contexts
    5)design using vector graphics so the logo can be resized without loss of fidelity
    6)be aware of design or trademark infringements
    7)include guidelines on the position on a page and white space around the logo for 8consistent 8application across a variety of media (a.k.a. brand standard manual)
    9)not use a specific choice clip-art as a distinguishing feature
    10)not use the face of a (living) person
    11)not use photography or complex imagery as it reduces the instant recognition a logo demands
