少女用音乐治愈自己 她还登上了“英国达人秀”

Sirine Jahangir can’t see anything, but she uses her love for music as a way to help her through. Her passion(酷爱) got her through some difficult times. It also brought her to the “Britain’s Got Talent” stage (舞台) when she was 14. Her performance shocked everyone there.

Sirine lost all her vision in one eye when she was 5. She was completely blind by the time she was 10 years old. While her parents and doctors have tried to help her see the world again, there isn’t much they can do. So her parents tried to help her adjust to her new life. That was when she was first introduced to music. “I remember one day, we were driving in the car. Sirine couldn’t look out the window anymore to see things. I didn’t know what to do, and I just put the music on really loud. She just started singing in the car, and she was so happy. And then she just found happiness every time you put music on,” her father said.

It didn’t take long for them to realize Sirine has great talent! When she appeared on “Britain’s Got Talent”, she told everyone just how much her passion means to her. “I guess music is my eyes,” she said. “That’s just what I live by, and music is my thing.” Then she walked over to the piano. She played the piano and sang beautifully enough to make everyone cry!
