That’s what I do. I read books, drink tea and know unimportant things.

In Arabic we don't say I love you.
We say instead Yaqburnee,
Maybe you bury me before I bury you.
Because there is no place for me in this world without you.
Yaqburnee,
May I never experience a life without you in it.
And I think that is really beautiful

If God gave the sun the weekend off
people would know how you shine all the time
even though I am the only one who notices.

“Enough for me to die on her earth
be buried in her
to melt and vanish into her soil
then sprout forth as a flower
played with by a child from my country.
Enough for me to remain
in my country's embrace
to be in her close as a handful of dust
a sprig of grass
a flower.”
Enough for me by Fadwa Tuqan //translated from Arabic

“Do not fill postcards with memories.
Between my heart and the luxury of passion
stretches a desert where ropes of fire
blaze and smolder, where snakes
coil and recoil, swallowing blossoms
with poison and flame.”
Excerpt from ‘Face lost in the wilderness’ by Fadwa Tuqan//Translated from Arabic

thus you
would stay in my heart
while I lived;
and at my death
you too would die in the
entrails of my core,
in the shadow of my tomb.

Your love has taught me… how to be sad.
And I have needed, for ages
A woman to make me sad
A woman in whose arms I could weep
Like a sparrow,
A woman— to gather up my pieces—
Like shards of shattered crystal
Excerpt from an ode to silence-by Nizar Qabbani [translated from Arabic]

Out of jasmine the night's blood streams white.
Your perfume,
my weakness and your secret,
follows me like a snakebite.
And your hair is a tent of wind autumn in color.

She said: My Love .. You will forget me
And you will forget that I, one day,
Have granted you my heart
And you will adore another wave
And you will leave my beaches warmth
And you will sit, as we used to
To listen to some of my tones
And you will not care for my sorrows
And my name will fall as hope
And my address will get lost
So, my Love, will you say
That you (once) loved me!?
So, I said: Your love is my faith
My forgiveness and my disobedience
I met you with hope
Remaining in my arms
Like spring without a bird.
On the ruins of a garden,
The winds of sadness squeeze me
And laugh in my chest.
I Love You .. like an oasis
On which all my sorrows have calmed down
I Love You, like an aura that tells
My songs to people’s silence
I Love You .. like ecstasy that runs
And fires my volcano.
I Love You .. you, Hope
That like morning light meets me.
Love has killed many lovers,
And your love has given life to me.
And if I were to choose a home,
I would say; my home is your Love.
And if I were to forget you,
My heart would forget me.
If I lost my way,
I would live in your eyes.
(i wanted to translate only an excerpt but which part do i even chooooooose)
[I would live in your eyes]-by Farouq Jwaydeh//translated from Arabic

Confused and drenched,
My hands torn attempting to embrace mountains, valleys, plains.
And the sea that I loved drowned me over and over.
This lover’s body has become a corpse
Floating on the water Confused and drenched
My corpse too,
Stretching out its arms,
Dying,
To embrace the sea that drowns it.
Embrace-by Najwan Darwish//translated from Arabic

There is a woman in your life, my son
Her eyes are so beautiful
Glory to God
Her mouth and her laughter
Are full of roses and melodies

I do not resemble your other lovers, my lady
should another give you a cloud
I give you rain
Should he give you a lantern, I
will give you the moon
Should he give you a branch
I will give you the trees
And if another gives you a ship
I shall give you the journey.
