I Love That Land

A: "I want to go to Iran. Not because it is smelly [he means polluted thanks to awfully refined gas"; not because people talk a different language [i.e. his mother tongue!!]; not because it is on the other side of the world; but because my grandparents are there."
Ah!
"Even if Iran is nothing but a damaged land
Still, I love that damaged land"
Or something like this:
اگر ايران بجز ويران سرا نيست
من آن ويران سرا را دوست دارم
