در کجای جهان
شکسته است
که هیچکس به خانه اش نمی رسد”

“Jerusalem! My Love,My Town

I wept until my tears were dry
I prayed until the candles flickered
I knelt until the floor creaked
I asked about Mohammed and Christ
Oh Jerusalem, the fragrance of prophets
The shortest path between earth and sky
Oh Jerusalem, the citadel of laws
A beautiful child with fingers charred
and downcast eyes
You are the shady oasis passed by the Prophet
Your streets are melancholy
Your minarets are mourning
You, the young maiden dressed in black
Who rings the bells at the Nativity Church,
On sunday morning?
Who brings toys for the children
On Christmas eve?
Oh Jerusalem, the city of sorrow
A big tear wandering in the eye
Who will halt the aggression
On you, the pearl of religions?
Who will wash your bloody walls?
Who will safeguard the Bible?
Who will rescue the Quran?
Who will save Christ, From those who have killed Christ?
Who will save man?
Oh Jerusalem my town
Oh Jerusalem my love
Tomorrow the lemon trees will blossom
And the olive trees will rejoice
Your eyes will dance
The migrant pigeons will return
To your sacred roofs
And your children will play again
And fathers and sons will meet
On your rosy hills
My town
The town of peace and olives”
― Nizar Qabbani

“You teach me now how cruel you've been - cruel and false. Why did you despise me? Why did you betray your own heart, Cathy? I have not one word of comfort. You deserve this. You have killed yourself. Yes, you may kiss me, and cry; and wring out my kisses and tears: they'll blight you - they'll damn you. You loved me - what right had you to leave me? What right - answer me - for the poor fancy you felt for Linton? Because misery, and degradation, and death, and nothing that God or Satan could inflict would have parted us, you, of your own will did it. I have no broken your heart - you have broken it; and in breaking it, you have broken mine. So much the worse for me that I am strong. Do I want to live? What kind of living will it be when you - Oh, God! would you like to lie with your soul in the grave?”
― Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

“چنان که از قفس هم دو یا کریم به هم
از آن دو پنجره ما خیره می شدیم به هم

به هم شبیه ، به هم مبتلا ، به هم محتاج
چنان دو نیمه سیبی که هر دو نیم به هم

من و توایم دو پژمرده گل میان کتاب
من و توایم دو دلبسته از قدیم به هم

شبیه یکدگریم و چقدر دلگیر است
شبیه بودن گل های بی شمیم به هم

من و تو رود شدیم و جدا شدیم از هم
من و تو کوه شدیم و نمی رسیم به هم

بیا شویم چو خاکستری رها در باد
من و تو را برساند مگر نسیم به هم...”
― فاضل نظری, گریه‌های امپراتور

شاعر کنار دفترش افتاد از نفس...”
