Your beauty doesn't compare with the women, but with the sky
And when you smile,
As Nizar Qabbani* I know the difference between you and the sky :
"When you laugh, my love, i forget about the sky"
I look to a woman, the night gets jealous of her hair's blackness
And the day gets jealous of the prettiness on her face
I see her shining like a pearl...
All the seas come over her
And I as a sailor
As a pirate
As a Boat
As a fish
As an octopus
As a mermaid...
Swim in your eyes without decision !
*Nizar Qabbani : a Syrian poet (1923 – 1998).
