Love in loud voice is a translation of a selection of poems by Nazar Qobbani, a famous Syrian poet, which has been translated by Ahmad Pouri from English into Persian language. In the process of this literary translation from Arabic into English, and then into Persian, there have been some changes in the dominant discourses on the text that can be observed, including religious, national- ethnic and structure-breaking and political discourse that have been changed or eliminated in the process of the translation. In this paper, we are going to examine the original and translated text based on discourse analysis and then, analyzing the change of Socioculturalelements in the process of translation. What we see in this study indicates that in this translation, in the discourses such as national, ethnic, political, structure-breaking and religious ones, the changes like deletion, selection versus an inappropriate equivalent, and sometimes changes to eliminate the tension existing in the original text has been made consciously.
