 Amir-Hushang Ebtehaj AKA  A.H.Saye. A Contemporary Iranian poet who recently passed away at the age of 94, Aug 10, 2022. 
امیر هوشنگ ابتهاج ملقب به سایه. شاعر معاصر فارسی که در سن 94 سالگی در 10 آگوست 2022 چشم از جهان فرو بست. 

متن اصلی شعر هرگز:
 
خانه دلتنگِ غروبی خفه بود
مثلِ امروز که تنگ است دلم
پدرم گفت چراغ
و شب از شب پُر شد
من به خود گفتم یک روز گذشت
مادرم آه کشید؛
«زود بر خواهد گشت.»
ابری آهسته به چشمم لغزید
و سپس خوابم برد
که گمان داشت که هست این همه درد
در کمینِ دلِ آن کودکِ خُرد
آری، آن روز چو می رفت کسی
داشتم آمدنش را باور
من نمی دانستم
معنیِ «هرگز» را
تو چرا بازنگشتی دیگر؟
آه ای واژه ی شوم
خو نکرده ست دلم با تو هنوز
من پس از این همه سال
چشم دارم در راه
که بیایند عزیزانم، آه

the poem's English translation 

The home was like a suffocated sunset,
like today that I miss you,
my father said light and then suddenly the night became full of night (darkness),
I said to myself one day passed,
my mother sighed "she'll come come back soon",
a cloud slowly slipped into my eyes and then I fell sleep,
who would've thought there were such pains in the ambush of the heart of that poor child?
in those days if anyone left me, I believed they'd come back,
I did not know the meaning of "never"... why didn't you come back, though?,
oh ominous word (never),
my heart isn't used to you yet,
after all these years,
my eyes are still on the way to see my loved ones.

TRANSCRIPTION (includes explanation)
These expressions of importance cover a spectrum of formality and tone. In everyday conversation, one might refer to something as "important," "significant," or even employ a casual "crucial" to stress its significance. When something is truly crucial, phrases like "This is absolutely crucial" and "This cannot be overstated" underscore its critical nature. In informal settings, a more relaxed approach may be taken with expressions like "This is a big deal" or "This is a game-changer," indicating a noteworthy event. For matters necessitating decorum, a formal approach may involve phrases like "This holds great significance" or "This bears immense importance," emphasizing the gravity of the situation. Politeness tempers the description in expressions such as "This is very important" or "This holds a lot of weight," demonstrating a respectful acknowledgment of its significance. A touch of wit adds a layer of playfulness to the importance, as seen in expressions like "This is kind of a big deal" or "This is a real game-changer." In more refined circles, the upper class might communicate the weight of a situation with statements like "This is of considerable importance" or "This holds a certain gravitas," maintaining an air of sophistication. For royalty, the gravity of a matter is conveyed with grace and dignity, as in "This holds great import" or "This is of profound significance," underscoring the formal nature of the description. Ultimately, the choice of expression hinges on the context and the level of decorum required for the situation at hand.

How To Say Important In Various English Registers

Всем привет! В прошлом выпуске мы говорили о суевериях и традициях, о том, что делают русские перед тем, как выйти из дома. Сегодня вы узнаете продолжение истории о детективе Иване и преступнике Саше, и мы с вами поговорим о деминутивах в русском языке.
Иван и Саша стояли вместе в подъезде. Только сейчас Саша заметил, что всё это время рядом с ним находился незнакомый человек.
- Ты кто ещё такой? – злобно посмотрел на детектива Саша. Вдруг у него зазвонил телефон. – Минуточку! – сказал парень и ответил на звонок.
Детектив услышал женский голос в трубке:
- Солнышко моё, мой сладенький. Я жду тебя уже два часа, ты где?
- Бегу, моя конфетка, бегу.
- Паспорта взял?
- Да, они у меня. Вечером самолёт. Поедем заграницу – и все проблемки решатся.
- Проблемки… Да у тебя не проблемки, а огромные проблемы! Мне из полиции сегодня 4 раза звонили, тебя искали.
- Знаю, знаю, котёночек. Не волнуйся, собирай вещички пока, скоро перезвоню. Целую тебя, зайка.
- И я тебя, зайчик. Пока.
Саша положил телефон обратно в карман.
- Дааа уж, миленький разговорчик, - засмеялся детектив.
Тут Саша понял, что этот незнакомый мужчина был у него в квартире, видел его ненастоящий паспорт и полностью слышал разговор про поездку заграницу. Ему стало страшно.
- Так Вы расскажете, кто Вы?
