Poetic Verses About Fathers
- The poet Mohamed Abu Al-Ala expresses in his poem “Farewell, Father”:
Your memory has become a distant dream,
And you have been removed from us.
When we lost you that day,
We came to you,
We cried for you,
For you were in our midst like a songbird,
With love that sang,
And you were in our thoughts like a dream,
Our lifetime, without you.
And you became a distant memory.
Once, it was a difficult day for us;
Oh, how sorrowful the day when youth was lost!
For you were like the sun, appearing.
So how did you disappear,
And in the dawn vanish?
Now, it’s become like a dream we long to pursue.
We shall find you where we conclude,
Like a mirage.
And I never thought that nights
Would strip us of their intoxication.
And that the bright stars of the sky
Would fall,
And dust would cover their peaks.
And he who once walked gracefully
Shall soar like a bird,
Indeed like a meteor.
And sorrow floods us until we feel as if
We are a small ship
Stranded in stormy nights.
Farewell, Father,
Farewell, for death leaves a profound wound.
Farewell, for death is a claw and a fang.
Farewell, Father, may you reach
The highest heaven and a good abode.
- The poet Abdullah Al-Faisal speaks in his poem “How Can I Forget You, Father”:
What memory returns to me after a year,
Having not yet healed my wounds?
What month, the spring of my youth, has slipped away,
In which my pain finds rest in my chest?
What terrifying event was it that I feared,
It consumed my determination and dulled my weapon?
What orphanhood humiliated my enduring lament
As the night descends upon my morning?
What day was it that I said goodbye to my beloved,
And then surrendered my heart to mourning?
It was the day of my death before my death,
And the flickering light in my lantern.
It was the day of a moment when he prostrated to God,
Surrendered, without a sound.
A day in which he was the existence for existence,
Full of piety and virtue.
I wish I could be a sacrifice for the one who did not,
For after his departure, my happiness faded.
“In my prayers!” You, O blade, whom I did not love,
Ever, nor did I satiate my thirst for glory.
O sword in the grip of truth and faith,
Your heroism is the highest boon.
The portrait of “Abdul Aziz” is an epic of glory,
And a legend of excellence and struggle.
How can I mourn you, Father, with verses,
When my verses fall short of flight?
How can I weep for you when eternity converges in you,
As a martyr embodying success?
How can the smile of tranquility grace my lips,
How can life be sweet for the destined?
How can I not perceive existence as a hell,
That encompasses me in my being and delivering?
How can I hold back my tears,
When I fear no bitterness in you?
How can I forget you, my father… how can I erase,
From my imagination, the sweet memory of you?
No one is with me, and oblivion has become my companion,
As the grief, despite its apparent soothing, is intense.
Other than my Lord, I ask for support,
For patience and meeting you in the gardens of paradise.
