Tweet, proudly, with your wound
Tweet, proudly, with your wound
By :
Dr. Ahmed Salah Kamel
Translated by:
Hassan Hegazy Hassan
Egypt
***
Even if you are betrayed
by a beautiful belle,
Sold by an intimate friend,
and banished from your homeland
to outdoors.
Even if they, stealthily, steal your tongue
Or they exchange you with a commodity
Or you are falsely accused of a big charge
And instructed the tribe's fools to mock at you
and give you bad names with the foolish
Do not weep from pain and proudly tweet
And pour on the sorrow the oil of pride
Even if it were a plot to kill you naked
To watch you on television disgraced without cover
Tweet proudly with your wound
You can do nothing but to encounter
with singing
Oh .. bird!
Your voice is stronger than a thousand swords
When the discordance blindly takes command
of the space
