TARANA TURAN RAHIMLI

 


It Would Be Better Only For A Day

To Be A Child In The Arms Of God

 

It would be better if one turns to a bee,

And settle on the flowers of the world.

When your lips tremble because of happiness,

You won’t be able to find a word.

 

Let your breath become dry

Because of the excitement.

When you forget the earth and the sky,

Let the great God protect you.

 

It would be better if you are splashed like stars,

Then to be gathered together for to be the sun.

To delete the world from your memory

And to start to get acquainted with it again.

 

Let you holding the hand of the God

The light of the God in your heart

It would be better only for a day

To be a child in the arms of God.

 

Oh, My God

There Are A Lot Of Poets

 

Oh, my God, there are a lot of poets

See, how many poems come to life.

See, how many poems are suffocated

The rope of a word around its neck.

 

When the price of the words is so cheap,

All are like the shah on the throne of word.

Some fall from their destiny.

Some fall from their words.

 

We turned to a slave in a slave world,

There is no way to be escaped from here.

Oh, my God, in the world, full of poets,

I don’t feel myself well.

 

I Fall On The Road 

Where You Fell Out Of My Eyes

 

You didn’t know me because I was a small tree,

They cut me untimely, I didn’t have any shadow.

Stumps are left after huge trees are cut

Any of my tracks isn’t left in the height of a tree.

 

From where you could know I feel cold,

The clothes of my spirit are rotten long ago.

You cut such a grief it doesn’t fit to my frame

I am covered with the grief of my future.

 

How to look at the face of justice

Such partings are sorrow for the God.

I fall on the road where you fell out of my eyes

I am going to look for you there.
