The spear and love
The spear and love
By :
Turkia Loucif
Translated

///
We built the house of love and opened it wide
We also entered a house we have not built or erected
The sleepless of night near us, by the way,
Is pleading to come in, but we left him out
*****
We accepted entertainment and bitterness
But for our sweet words we do not enjoy
We begged for the one who neglected us
And who wanted to be near we blame and scold
*****
The hunting of the elusive deer is our aim
We hit the spear and hurt it in heart
So, take care of us and we will do the same
The spear has caught what we intended and want
