This song honors refugees and those displaced by conflict. It was released on Feb 7, 2025 as the second single from Shervin Boloorian's forthcoming album, "Unbroken". While the original song was penned by Boloorian, it is inspired by a touching poem by peacebuilder and Ted X speaker, Manal Omar called, "Let this Little Girl Win."

Song.Notes
2020 Global Peace Song awardee Shervin wrote this song after joining a "peace through music" project during Covid. After the project and the song process stalled, Shervin still felt motivated to complete the song on his own. It spoke to his own refugee journey and contained a powerful universal message of overcoming the odds. Shervin later came up with a new chorus and reworked a lot of the lyrics so that they paralleled his own personal experience of coming to terms with his past. Throughout the songwriting process, Arab American Manal Omar's poem “Let This Little Girl Win” was an inspiring force for the song. Shervin plays Persian Ney on this record and Grammy winning producer, Kipper Mark Eldridge helped Shervin simplify and add elegance to the song. Kipper's creative advice enabled the song to finally find its way to completion.
The first time this song was performed in Bali in Dec 2024, it was arranged and conducted by aJewish American choir leader, Dan Kohane. During a time of so much bloodshed and forced displacement in the Middle East, Dan instantly joined the project. The result: a Palestinian, a Jew and an Iranian all united as artists and humanitarians to share a song with a message of peace to a live audience, instantly making it a career highlight for Shervin, who is also an experienced healing-music artist as well as a singer-songwriter..
