Ali Hameed Alhemdani
Translated by Hamid Alshammari
One day
We sat together
At a table
I caught her fingers
As if I
Caught a flock of nightingales
Her fingers
Were trembling and warbling
We weren't falling down
but flying in the sky
We became a song
On the lips of angels
How much we wished this moment
How much we love it
We held it well
It is an unrepeatable moment
In the life of a woman or a man
After it departs
