VEIL

Great loves

Never wear veils

The fate of life remains

Shadow of memories

Without crown…

***

WE LOVE EACH OTHER

I loved you my way

You loved me your way

We were not satisfied,

The way we loved each other!

Most important

We loved each other

How: yesterday

Today, tomorrow

We love each other…

***

LOVE

Took a long time to say

I love you

Very briefly to say

I don’t love you

The sea wave takes the word

Back by the course of the river

Swinging the Swallow wings

Do not hurt the lovers

(Translated by Naser Qamili)
