TARANA TURAN RAHIMLI

 


Winter Scenery

 

Remove the rainbow from the cloud

Leaping the snow to the street

The cloud put on the white curtain

 on the day and on the night

 

The white shining of fate gets Baku

The city wearied on bride dress

Birds talking about winter secrets

 on the snow early in the morning

 

"White flowers" scattering

desert-straight petal as petal

Snow tracery on my window

Star as star, flower as flower

Iicicle one by one

as earrings of the tree

 

The sea comes up sleeping

from the breath of nature

The first smell of love coming

 

The heavens send blessings

dumping snow on the ground.

It needs Sattar”s  drawing brush

for painting of this winter scenery

 

You Wrote A Letter

 

You wrote a letter,

No breath, no smell.

In any of the lines

There is no voice of your heart.

 

You wrote a letter

reluctantly, desperately

Without the pleasant words

How did you send it?

 

You wrote a letter,

unfeeling, senseless.

My thoughts so  wandered

I was left without sleep

 

You wrote a letter

 As a stick of the blind

scratched the land

as engraver….

 wrote tombstone

 

When  You  Say  Azerbaijan

 

Crazy river is my Kura, Araz is my dam-channel,

My Derbent,Borchali,Goyjem,Qaryaza

It was mugham, burned by heaven and earth

When you say Azerbaijan.

 

The land which divided into two, both side- all of them my native

How many time were you felled , you are standing on still

Rise up my wounded lion, wake up my gray wolf

When you say Azerbaijan.

 

İt is a song about the love of my native language,

bravely got out of the fire of history trace

it is sacred excuse - of living and death

When you say Azerbaijan.
