Wait for her by Mahmoud Darwish.

Part 1 of 2.

With an azure

drinking cup studded with lapis, wait for her
In the evening at the spring, among perfumed roses, wait for her
With the patience of a horse trained for mountains, wait for her
With the distinctive, aesthetic taste of a prince, wait for her
With seven pillows stuffed with light clouds, wait for her
With strands of womanly incense wafting, wait for her
With the manly scent of sandalwood on horseback, wait for her
Wait for her and do not rush.

If she arrives late, wait for her.
If she arrives early, wait for her.
Do not frighten the birds in her braided hair.

    @Shamus you have no idea how much I liked it. I took a break in the office to walk, listen and then listen again while following the reading. I'm looking foward to listening part 2.

    It's worthwhile to wait for who deserves u,loves u and values u.Or it's painful,suffocating and fidgety.

    "تحدّث إليها كما يتحدّث ناي إلى وترٍ خائفٍ في الكمان. كأنكما شاهدان على ما يعد غدٌ لكما..وانتظرها." Talk to her as if u were a flute talking to a frightening string of violin. As if you both standing there witnessing what tomorrow may bring, and.. Wait for her. -Mahmoud Darwish Amazing post 👌
