Oh, Light of My Eyes
A Song of Longing and Love

By Ali Sadeek
Come close and take me… your absence is sorrow.
Listen to me once, don’t be so stubborn,
Your heart is aching from sleepless nights,
It cries once for the endless distance,
And once again for the taste of pain.
Why do you wrong it and harden your heart?
Listen to me once, don’t be so stubborn.
My heart blames me,
It says you visited me once…
My heart whispers,
Of you… my beloved.
Why, when it aches, does it hide and conceal?
Sleepless nights, tears overflow,
Longing calls with no retreat.
And if we part, my heart will break.
And if I say I'll forget… I lose myself,
Not every love stays with me,
But your love is my greatest tale.
Oh, Light of My Eyes… and Pulse of Longing,
Come close and take me… your absence is sorrow.
Listen to me once, don’t be so stubborn,
Why the distance? Why the pain?
Just listen once, without resistance,
And don’t conceal the depth of your wounds.

Voice of the Earth
We think with the mind No poetry is repeated And no words are scattered Rather, we speak wisdom And hope increases in it We do not neglect any plantation Not a morsel to throw away My country is sacrificed for my soul Even if my wounds increase Whatever it was and whatever it was My death will be in it And with my soul I redeem it Or peace and security And protection of homelands Or defeat the aggression Or I will die with a decent title For human dignity I am not a coward And a testimony to the religion And protection of homelands
