To My Son Seperated From Me

TO MY SON SEPARATED FROM ME Fly now o soul! And whisper in his tiny ear The beautiful lullaby He sings with his uncle , on swing , "shung-e shung-e gubrey Allaho...!" Kiss like rose the red cheek! Carefully! Bite the ear and lick the sweating hair. Then pat the thighs and press the feet. He must have fallen sound asleep like the star which sets last...!
