جسد
جُثَّةُ طائرٍ بِفَمِكْ
تَبْعَثُ الأُغْنية.
نَيِّئاً
من عيونِكَ ينطلقُ الضّوءُ
في عُرْيِهِ الكامِل
عليكَ أَنْ تُرْسِل َالأُفْقَ، مَرَّةً كي تُفِيقَ، عليكَ
أَنْ تبعثَ نافذةً تِلْوَ أُخرى
تَسْنِدُ الجِّدارْ
أَتْرُكُ الأَبجديةَ تتعلَّقُ بي
وأَنا أَتسلَّقُ خيطَ اللُّغَةِ الرَّفيع
بيني والعالم.
أَتَجَمْهَرُ في فَمِي
معلَّقَاً بين اللُّغةِ والعالمِ
بين العالمِ والأَبجديةْ.
أَترُكُ رأسي
يُنْصِتُ للخرافةِ
أُصغِي لمديحِ الجِّهاتِ لبعضِها
وأُزمجِرُ للرِّيحِ من فُوَّهَةِ الجَبَل
ما لساني يقولُ لِيَ اْصْعَدِ المسافةَ
ما المسافةُ بين صوتي وحنيني
ما هناكْ ؟!
جَسَدٌ يترفَّعُ عن جسدي
جسدٌ تَنْفِيهِ الرَّغبة
جسدٌ تَعْلُوهُ الرِّيح.

Great poem. I will look into this poet and I was really touched by the care and bravery they seem to possess. You know I think the literal translation has more poetic power. I think that the final translation missed the point of some phrasings.

Thank you so much for this website! It’s a great help to people like me who cant read Arabic, but still want to experience its literary beauty. I want to learn classical Arabic so I can recite Quran Inshallah, and i also want to be able to communicate with people all over the world in modern Arabic, and maybe Chinese too. Thank you for making this available to me : ) Allah Hafiz-Jess

Beautiful poem, as an Arabic student I love that there is a literal as well as final translation of the poetry! It makes it a lot easier to figure out the phrases if you understand the words in their literal meaning as well.
