“لا تسألي العين الحزينة
كيف أدمتها المقل
لا تسألي النجم البعيد
بأي سرٍّ قد أفل
مهما توارى الحلم في عيني
وأرقني الأجل
مازلتُ ألمح في جبين الأفق
نجمات جديدة
وغداً ستورق في ليالي الحزن
أيام سعيدة
وغداً أراك على المدى
شمساً تُضيءُ أيامي
و إن كانت بعيدة”
― فاروق جويدة, لو أننا لم نفترق

“The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.”
― William Shakespeare, As You Like It

“I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed--and gazed--but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.”
― William Wordsworth, I Wander'd Lonely as a Cloud
