Quotes
ترا میخواهم و دانم که هرگز
به کام دل در آغوشت نگیرم
توئی آن آسمان صاف و روشن
من این کنج قفس، مرغی اسیرم
want you, yet I know that never
can I embrace you to my heart's content.
you are that clear and bright
Bonjour tout x sky.
I, in this corner of the cage, am a captive bird...
_The Captive
...هوس در دیدگانش شعله افروخت
شراب سرخ در پیمانه رقصید
تن من در میان بستر نرم
بروی سینهاش مستانه لرزید
گنه کردم گناهی پر ز لذت
کنار پیکری لرزان و مدهوش
خداوندا چه میدانم چه کردم
در آن خلوتگه تاریک و خاموش
desire sparked a flame in his eyes;
the red wine danced in the cup.
In the soft bed, my body
drunkenly quivered on his chest.
I sinned a sin full of pleasure,
next to a shaking, stupefied form.
o God, who knows what I did
In that dark and quiet seclusion.
_The Sin
دلم گرفته است
دلم گرفته است
به ایوان میروم و انگشتانم را
بر پوست کشیدهی شب میکشم
چراغهای رابطه تاریکند
چراغهای رابطه تاریکند
کسی مرا به آفتاب
معرفی نخواهد کرد
کسی مرا به میهمانیِ گنجشکها نخواهدبرد
پرواز را بهخاطر بسپار
پرنده مردنیست
I feel blue.
I feel blue.
I go outside and rub my cold fingers,
on the sleek shell of the silent night.
I see that all lights of contact are dark,
I see that all lights of contact are dark.
Nobody will introduce me to the sun,
Nobody will take me to the gathering of doves.
Keep the flight in mind,
The bird may die.
_The Bird Shall One Day Die
