TAGHRID BOU MERHI

 


 

Death And Silence!

 

To those whose heads dance in front of the tongues of fire,

And their bodies are covered with silk…

 

There are palms that are covered with cold bites,

And souls that their bodies froze from frost…  

 

Chatter does not delight silence, while the owl is hovering everywhere…

Its shadow is wiping the sleeping faces…

 

Who said Death comes only once?

Who said graves do not gnaw on worn out bones?

 

His eyes still cover half of the earth’s nakedness,

While the wind splits the screaming chest,

 

Cracking the silence’s ribs with a whip that scurries madly!

 

Sickness And Defead!

 

Like a carcinogenic syringe sitting in a far corner, stretching out a trembling hand tied with blatant boredom.

In the long run, we are all dead.

The moment you drive away the shiver of fear,

Your inner self will cool down with a ray of light.

Otherwise, it would be a disaster,

To not take a deep breath, and lose your dignity.

To look out the window of the tomb, to raise the whip against the face of the air and bid farewell.

Tell me… what’s the result?

And What is the difference between dying of starvation and dying of thirst?

While you gather your ending,

Remember the series of your silence, your coldness and the rattle of your boredom,

For nothing will remain but the roar of the night,

And a foolish nightmare in the form of defeat sitting in a far corner.

 

Death!

 

When death surrounds you and pulls your soul to sky

The breath stops, the body fades and becomes lifeless..!!

Death is one of the mysteries of life!

No one can know this great divine secret!

When a person dies, he loses all his senses and his body turns to dust

When a person dies, only memories, pictures, and good deeds that people pass on remain

Although I know that everyone will die

Death is very painful!

 Grief for those who die remains in the heart for a long time..!
