The rooster sees a large egg one day
It has two colours white and gray.
He steals it from a poor bird's nest.
When he comes back from another way

The rooster asks the sparrow, is it yours?
The sparrow astonishes and flees away.
Staggering, cursing the occasion of that day

Iraq is the symbol of honour.


Many years ago, I have claimed the victor
Nothing had I taste but only the bitter.
Your naked blossom appears as a shadowy olive tree.
I wish I got rest at thy shadow and drank a cup of tea.
Didn’t you tell me to look to the flying bird?
Didn’t you see the falcon and you

O, lover who confined my way
As a faded flower, the wind blows it away

I stand by the door scratch my wrist
My elbow becomes necrosis since they leave

Mosul – Iraq




Scheherazade would relate her story
Not to sultan's temper, turns worry.
The unlucky girl perhaps wishes death!
However, sultan struts in his glory…
All night Scheherazade would talk.
All her grace to Sultan would hock…
Never was she grieved thirty years
But from his scepter
