Our distinctive DNA

That G6PD deficiency is a trait Parsis share with Iranians has been proven by researchers:
Our skin fair and nose long, is what most outsiders often note./So also our dagli-pheto-pugree and sometimes a coat./ Our stature tall and stately, relates us to those Iranian boat(s)./ Our marriage to humdins, is the very reason that keeps us afloat.

"Proud to be a Parsi" is and shall always be, my favorite quote./ About our Caucasian genes, many times I did affirm and wrote./ Other medical facts like G6PD and hairline in Parsi girls, one should note. /However, about these facts or looks I do not gloat.

To preserve our DNA wish, we must build a moat./ "Marry a humdin early in life" should be the idea we must float./ To have children three, we must definitely promote./ Only for trustees who encourage this, we must vote.
