Recital of Words
By: Nuha Zurub Kawar
Translated by: Adib S. Kawar
Words with pride dance when I write them
and sends thanks a melody to its creator
letters magically fall like a shadow
on my pads to beautify them
wished they speak to hear them
narrate peoples tales that I used to
as if life crept into its gardens
then spirit become roses on its hillocks
in hardly heard whispering she talked to me
to awaken in me a love that in me it lives
with longing I crept even I could hug
and kiss the ground even confide to it
I wish a king I were and craving prompts me
To relate love singing in its rhymes
with ecstasy he exhilarates for warbling enraptures him
he sang singing entrances
singing is soliloquy with God
we astounds the world with a letter that I was noting
on lines that I feared ink shall innervate it
the tears he sheds are black
extracted secrets from my heart and revealed
