Poem by Fadi Tofeili

كتل خرساء
صامتة لا تجيب على أسئلة الهواء المكهرب،
ولا تحدّث أحداً.
تجثو الجبالُ ككتلٍ خرساء،
تغفو في سكينةٍ ارتسمت فوقها
كبشًا عملاقًا من بخار،
أو فأرًا بحريًّا بحجم كوكبٍ
تكوّن في دهور متلاحقة.
السماء حافلة بالسهول
وكثبان الهواء والمراعي الطائرة،
وعلى الأرض مساكن حشرات تحجّرت
وغدت منافذ إلى عوالم لا ضوء فيها.
في تلك
اللحظة
فقط
أحسّ
المطرُ
أنّ
ساعتَه
قد
حانت
من
جديد

Mute Masses

Silent, they disregard the queries of the electrified wind,
speak to no one.
The mountains kneel like mute masses,
slumber in quietude
beneath a giant ram outlined in vapor,
or an aquatic mouse the size of a planet,
fashioned during successive ages.

The sky is rife with plains,
wind dunes and gliding pastures,
and on land the dwellings of insects have petrified
and become openings to tenebrous worlds

At that

moment

only

the rain

sensed

that its hour

had

come

once more
