LOVE MELODY is one of Charbel Baini's books translated from Arabic into English

Embers' Remains

 

-1-

The stars of the sky covered the sun; Jaffa

White birds carried my net

And the fog that was in my eyes

Evaporated... as if I hadn't cried

-2-

And after the weariness... I saw joy coming

I washed my face and the mirror smiled

It's been waiting for joy for a long time

The dust of a story has settled on it

-3-

What do you think... 

I'll keep crying forever My life

And the red sighs have aged on my lips

From the fire, I rise like a firebird

Carrying on my wings the remnants of embers
