These tears
These tears
By:
Mahmoud Abdel Hafeez
Translated by:
Hassan Hegazy Hassan
He is now recovering some health
Once again, he sees the things he knows
The memory may come back as it was before
Those good fellows do not leave the place
in his hardships,
they often take the price of roses
before they leave and the fruits they often eat
and the cost of the ticket.
These tears in the eyes are often misled him
He is still able to wait for them
They ask permission to leave.
This scented tissue box, the one that always
helps with obstructed labour.
With a tear, they send it to him with best wishes,
In an immoral dignified card
When did they see him deny their affection??
And how he denies the mods that the merchants ,
magicians and the brokers holding in their markets?
All that is:
Who fired shots at the moon's chest yesterday??
Slowly with cold blood, without shaking his eyelid
or a hair in him managed this plot??
How, when he pulled the trigger, it did not cross
his mind,
A finger on the trigger now was with her girlfriends
extends yesterday towards
a generous and full table!!
And who helped him to escape does not see him
now among them?
The answer soon will come to him,
One of them will bring it tomorrow
or the day after tomorrow
May they all come when a doubling is
announced of the determined reward.
