Narcissus & Jasmine Orchard

Abdallah Gasmi

 

1

 

Alone with the night, I embark a cloud of wild violet

My father, who rode the bronze horse of death, left me

For the cotton stones and snowy mountains

I crawl between crowds of hungry people 

Like a weak mist, I encircle the roads and cry at night on my mother's chest

No wave in my hand 

In my palm hand, a sad willow tree grew 

Alone with the night, I embark a cloud of wild violet

O’ Bulbul that got drenched in the moonlight go and fly away

 

Out of my hands, a storm of orange suns blows 

My eyes are two boats wandering in the ocean

My heart is a cold winter

I used to flow with the pain between the letters and walk to the sea 

I walk and jasmine grows vigorously between my steps 

 

The streets are crowded with lovers' sighs 

O my beloved woman! Let me grow inside of you as a wild herb 

Let me harvest the wheat from your breasts

When the winter comes, I used to take my words to the bar and get drunk from drinking pain 

When I get back to my office, the letters used to whip me   

And the words turned into gallows and the odes into orchards of slat 

When the spring comes, I used to accompany my pen to the old cottages  

And get drunk from drinking pain

When I go back home, the odes used to whip me because I took off my virgin dress

When summer comes, I used to look for an orphaned rain between my beloved’s breasts    

When autumn comes, the blood becomes yellow between my lips 

And the shadow of a God inside me rises so that I may to be sweeter than sugar

My body is a cold lake and my soul trembles like a bare willow tree 

Uproot the rock out of my ribs! 

Put your perfume in the swamp of memory! 

Bathe in the cavities of heart and construct churches and then pray on the dream carpet as a nun

Play a wild tune 

My eyes are two roses of pearls

My fingers are flocks of wild gazelles running between tragedies

My body is a forest of mist

Like a breeze scented with joy, light the walls of my realm   

Let millions of suns erupt from my stars and dance your favorite dance

So that the bare trees inside me may come to leaf
