Nostalgia (When I return home…)
When I return home
mother expects me,
she stands with water, mirror and the Quran at the doorstep,
Nostalgia (When I return home…)
When I return home
mother expects me,
she stands with water, mirror and the Quran at the doorstep,
and father
has gone for expedition many years ago;
my sisters and brothers have immigrated elsewhere,
and your sisters
and brothers
have escaped the songs of their homeland,
and our neighbors
are sleeping at the bridal chambers at the cross-roads,
the town is thus
adorned
with silence and death.
When
you return home.
