Poetry About Mothers
- Badr Shakir al-Sayyab’s poem “Jikur, My Mother”:
This is my mother, even if I come to her limping,
kissing her flowers and the water within, and the earth.
Shaking off with my eyes her nests and the wilderness.
Those blue and grey birds of tomorrow flutter over the rooftops,
or spread their wings like a flower, opening their mouths wide.
Here, at dawn, was the meeting,
and the sun was breaking light on her lips.
How do I walk, traverse those green paths, and knock on doors?
I ask for water, and she brings me a jar from clay,
the shadow drips with sweet drops.
Gradually, the jar extends to me hands that spread fragrant air around my head.
Is she the mother of (Wafiq) or (Iqbal)?
All that’s left are names,
from a passion like thunder in my sky
without any rain.
How do I walk, my steps torn by illness like I am a column
of salt moving?
Is she a dweller of (Al-Ghuyah) or (Sodom)?
Far from it; it is Jikur—
Heaven where a boy played, lost when he lost it.
Oh, if the black years could transform into wheat or soil,
on my back, I would carry them to shake off Jikur,
of its trees, the dust that covers it, embraced by a moaned tune,
tearing through love with a melody, full of farewells.
- Mourid Barghouti’s verse “To My Mother”:
I long for my mother’s bread,
and my mother’s coffee,
and my mother’s touch.
And the childhood in me grows,
day upon day.
And I cherish my life because,
when I die,
I will feel shame from my mother’s tears.
Take me, if I return one day,
with a scarf for your lashes,
cover my bones with grass,
sanctified by the purity of your heel,
and tighten my bonds,
with a strand of hair,
a thread waving at the hem of your dress.
Perhaps I will become a god,
a god indeed,
if I touch the heart’s core.
Place me, if I return,
as fuel in your oven…
and a clothesline on the roof of your house.
For I lost the stance,
without the prayer of your day.
I have aged; return me the stars of childhood,
so I can share
the path home…
to the nest of waiting for you.
