A man standing in front of a map of Afghanistan.

نام من مالک است و من سی و نو ساله هستم. من در افغانستان تولد شدم. دین من از دین اصلی افغانستان فرق می کند.

My name is Malik and I am 39 years old. I was born in Afghanistan. My religion is different from the main religion in Afghanistan.

برای سال های بیشتر، مردم که هم دینم هستند، با تعقیب قرار گرفته اند. این با خانواده من بسیار سخت بوده است.

For many years, people who belong to my religion have been persecuted. This has been very difficult for my family.

چند سال پیش در آنجا یک جنگ بود. من ترسیده بودم که شاید کشته شوم. من خانواده ام را ترک کردم و برای آغاز زندگی نو به اروپا رفتم.

A few years ago there was a war. I was afraid I would be killed. I left my family to go to Europe and start a new life.

من با کیلومترهای بیشتر قدم زدم. بعضی اوقات من نه نان داشتم و نه جای برای ماندن. . بعضی از مردم که من همراهش سفر کرده بودم، مردند.

بالاخر من رسيدم. من با چند هم کشورم ملاقات کردم کسانی که با من کمک کردند. من نمی فهمم که بدون آنها من چه می کردم.

Finally I arrived. I met some people from my own country who helped me. I do not know what I would have done without them.


A man sitting at a desk studying.

من به یاد گرفتن زبان را آغاز کردم، مگر بسیار سخت بود. من می فهمیدم که ياد‌ گرفتن زبان برای وظیفه گرفتن مهم است.

A man sitting at a desk studying with a clock on the wall.

من در چندين سال های اول درس خواندم، تا که زبان را ياد بگيرم. اين کاری مشکل بود، مگر من خوش دارم که چیزهای نو را ياد بگيرم.

I studied for several years, at first to learn the language. It was hard, but I enjoy learning new things.


A man teaching angles.

بعد از درس خواندن من کار را شروع کردم. من اول در یک رستورانت کار کردم و بعد از آن من استاد شدم چرا که من ميخواهم با ديگران کمک کنم.

After studying I started working. First I worked in a restaurant, and then I became a teacher because I want to help others.

من آرزو دارم که یک روز پس به افغانستان بروم. آنجا زياد‌ مردم به کمک نياز دارند، و من ميخواهم با آنها کمک کنم.

I hope to go back to Afghanistan one day. Many people there need help, and I want to help them.
