lyrics

I tell with a fugitive’s tongue
of a human’s end and the birth of something
Less cruel and more forlorn
from instant to instant the cosmos lost in a grain of time
sadness contaminating my heart traversing
arteries east and west to limbs that know no land of rest to eyelids that know no sleep
from a bedtime story from the perfumes of the book of dreams
to drifting between a time that’s been and space eternal
I found sorrows and darkness that endure
I tell with mind absent heart cold and faith unquestioning
that my departure will be a return to dust
no toil beyond the body
no struggle no tears
I recall a day I ached for lack of love longed for riches and glory
I recall a day I abandoned love loved the drawn-out abandonment
in a habit to repeat the habitual in leaning on the inanimate to prop up my reason explain my unbelief
I found sorrows and darkness that endure

أحكى بلسان هارب
نهاية إنسان
و بداية كيان
أكثر بؤساً و أقل طغياناً
و من بين آن و آن
و نسيان الكون فى ذرة زمان
وحزن لوث مكانا فى قلبى
فسلك شرياناً شرقاً و غرباً
لأطراف لا تطأ أرض راحة و أجفان لا تنام
و من بين قصة ما قبل المنام
و تعطير الأنام فى تفسير الأحلام
و تيه بين زمان قد كان و مكان لا يحول
وجدت أحزاناً و غيوماً تدوم
أحكى بعقل شارد
و قلب بارد
عن يقينٍ فى دينى
أنه يوم رحيلى
أرجع للطين فلا عناء بعد هلاك البدن
ولا شقاء و لا بكاء
و أذكر يوم تعست من فقر حب و شوق لجاه و مال
و أذكر يوم يأست من الحب و أحببت طول الخصام
و فى إعتيادى لإعادة المعتاد
و فى إعتمادى على قوة الجماد
كعماد عقلى و تبرير إلحادي
وجدت أحزانا و غيوما تدوم
