Discover "Hand in Hand," an Azerbaijani Turkic children's song featuring poems by Alireza Nabdel (pen name: Oxtay), featured in Turkic Stories by EnglishAzerbaijani, Season 3, Episode 2. Born in 1944 in Tabriz, South Azerbaijan (Iranian Azerbaijan), Nabdel was far more than a poet — he was a passionate teacher, fearless social critic, and devoted activist who stood against the Pahlavi regime. A close friend of the legendary Samad Behrangi, Nabdel also penned a moving tribute song in Behrangi's memory following his tragic death in the Araz river. This powerful poem calls on children to unite against adversity, and his writings became anthems for activists across the region. Executed at just 27 years old for his brave defence of Azerbaijani ethnic identity and resistance against oppression, Nabdel left behind a legacy that continues to inspire. This video explores his remarkable life, his courage, and the enduring impact of his words on Turkic cultural and political history. #AzerbaijaniMusic #TurkicStories #AlirezaNabdel #KidsSong #SouthAzerbaijan #Lykstage #LykstageVideo #LykstageCreator #LykstageCommunity
