The Fire and the Lantern
The Fire and The lantern
By :Nameq Abed Theeb
Translated by :Laith Seher
-----------------------------------------------
All the seasons are absorbed or exhausted ,
by the cloud who is being in love with the mountain .
-----------------------------------
The blood of the poet is a carnation of the female.
-------------------------
Don’t laugh at me ,
I am the ash.
My father is the thunder,
and my mother is the wood .
-----------------------------
Her lips are blue,
this girl kisses the sky .
-------------------------
How much coal does this fire need so as to dance .
How many flowers does this girls want to be wet.
-----------------------------------
The fire is cold
Ibrahim enters it .
-----------------------------------
The female of the carnation closed the market ,
It is the complaint of a merchant
Who didn’t sell anything .
-----------------------------
The dance of the fire
makes the lantern oozes the light .
--------------------------------
"I am dancing
so you are existed " .
this is an excuse
of the fire
who is entangling the lantern .
