The mega anthology is a cultural project to offer global poetic voices a space to sing under an umbrella of the world theme ―Arabian Nights‖ .Arabian Nights is a literary work inspired the world‘s creators, whether they were poets, novelists, painters, or film, theater makers and music composers. It is a world that mixes history and legend, a space to travel between illusion and reality.

Ashraf Aboul-Yazid, editor of the international multi-tongues publication said that both parts will be available for free to read as an online copy. While these two parts are approximately 900 pages altogether, the print version will come in one book, and will be released in different cities on the real Silk Road.

Few months ago, the editor asked world poets: ―Have you read the Nights, or just some of its tales? Have you thought about expressing your admiration or discontent with them? Have you thought of writing a poem about Arabian Nights; characters, heroes, narrator, and the paths of their women and men?‖ He also requested them to ―be Scheherazade or Dunyazad, act as Shahryar or Shah Zaman, do as Aladdin or Ali Baba, create your own poetic nights‖. This was the theme for the new issue of the Silk Road Literature Series Anthology. Being the coordinator of World Poetry Movement in Egypt, Ashraf Aboul-Yazid announced that the publication will be a part of activities raised by the WPM in Egypt.

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Few books have evoked the visual imagination as The Thousand and One Nights — an exceptional, even aberrant work, with respect to some of the most important conventions of medieval Arabic literature. Princess Scheherazade, Aladdin, Sinbad the sailor and Ali Baba have acquired the status of cultural icons. Genies, flying carpets and magic lamps, once curiosities of medieval Arab and Persian mythology, are now stock-in-trade of Occidental fantasy. There have been musical interpretations by Rimsky-Korsakov and Weber; cartoons by Disney, and lavish Hollywood films.

Robert Irwin‘s Visions of the Jinn: Illustrators of the Arabian Nights, is a remarkable tome that

The reason, perhaps, lies in the genesis of the stories. As Borges said of one of his favorite books, Seven Nights, ―To erect the palace of The Thousand and One Nights, it took generations of men, and those men are our benefactors, as we have inherited this inexhaustible book capable of so much metamorphosis.‖ The ‗palace‘ of the Nights is based on 19th century editions from Egypt, India and Europe, that have served as the basis for all but one translation since Galland‘s first. With its spacious pavilions, charming recesses, secret chambers and mysterious passages, it must have been the work of many literary hands, and the result of seven or eight centuries of development in Arabic alone.

provides us the visual history of this timeless story. Part bibliographical exposition, part dazzling magic lantern show, its 164 colour facsimiles, photographs and B&W images, and their accompanying analysis, offer a stunning and sensitive account of the European response to this titillating text. The first edition contained no pictures, but the late 18th century saw illustrated editions flourish. The first was a widely pirated 1714 edition with engravings by Dutch artist David Coster, who portrayed the characters in European dress, and on European furniture amid European architecture.

The first imaginative edition, titled Dalziel‘s Illustrated Arabian Nights Entertainments, came in 1865, with engravings by a number of notable artists, including Sir John Tenniel, famous for his whimsical illustrations in Lewis Carroll‘s Alice‘s Adventures in Wonderland. Walter Crane, in his 1876 Aladdin‘s Picture Book, introduced colour, and was among the first to consider children.

It wasn‘t until the 1839-1841 translation by Edward W Lane, that the stories began to reflect the Arab world with some accuracy. Lane hired British engraver William Harvey to do the artwork, and gave him historical engravings of Egyptian and Moorish architecture to copy, approaching it as an educational primer rather than a visual journey.

Even though editions since Lane‘s scholarly work progressed in visual imagination, the content remained rather sterile. It wasn‘t until the 1885-1888 Richard Burton translation, that themes of sexuality and bestiality emerged. Burton‘s original had no pictures, but shortly after his death in 1890, Albert Letchford created 70 paintings, which became the basis for the next edition of Burton‘s translation. In the early 1900s, Edmund Dulac illustrated Stories from the Arabian Nights (1907), Princess Badoura (1913), and Sindbad the Sailor & Other Tales from the Arabian Nights (1914), blending British tradition of illustration with vibrant colours of Persian miniatures and motifs from Chinese and Japanese art.

It is towards the end of the century, and of Irwin‘s book, that things really get exciting. Recent illustrations combine contemporary knowledge with indigenous design and an explosion of colour. Among these are British artist Errol le Cain. Visions of the Jinn explores these and

By the early 20th century, artists had abandoned ethnographic accuracy. Illustrators like Danish artist Kay Nielsen looked to fantastic monsters and whimsical landscapes of Asian folklore, weaving Buddhist iconography, Chinese cloud bands and surrealist elements into the stories.

Errol Le Cain (1941 – 1989) was a British illustrator who was awarded the Kate Greenaway Medal for Hiawatha’s Childhood in 1984. These images from Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp, retold by Andrew Lang (Faber, 1981) are perhaps my favourites of the illustrations I have found so far. They capture the ideas of infinity and symmetry that are imbued within the tales and their structure.

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Eldar Akhadov А fairy tale about money No wonder they say ―who gets up early, God gives him.‖ Yesterday I came to work early, early: two hours before the start of the working day. I look, and on my desk is a bundle of money. And next to it is a note: ―Take it.‖ I took it with pleasure. Today I came even earlier. There was no money yet, but hope remained.

The Good and the Bad The good words and the bad words once met. The bad words were just spoiling for a fight, but the good words wouldn‘t notice that. How come? The worst words got into a rage, they were shaking fists, crying loudly, hearing nobody around. But the good words were smiling. Then the bad words decided to attack the good ones and beat them. They ran up well… And missed the ears. But the good words remained.

Once upon a time, a wonder with feathers was born. Small. Tousled. Everybody had been simply wanting the wonder—the normal, serious wonder. But along came such a thing and with feathers at that. They began to laugh at it. They had been laughing long until they got completely out of breath. And suddenly it started singing. Just then they somehow forgotten

A Wonder with Feathers

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

that it is small, and they also forgotten that it is tousled, and all the laughing was forgotten as well. In memory remained the wonder only—natural, alive, unique…

Two and the Stars ―Who are you?‖ ―I‘m a lord of winds. And you?‖ ―I‘m a king of madmen. Let‘s be friends!‖ ―Okey.‖ So they became friends. And a mad wind arose soon afterwards. But they didn‘t notice it. They were catching the stars to get them back. Nothing came out of it. But it was funny.

Page

Near a river, near a mountain, near a forest, in the middle of a land with nice fruits, flowers, birds, under the wonderful clouds, under the bright stars, under the warm and sweet sun, there lived you. Little, ingenuous and amusing. The Sea laughed at you, the mountain Echo rocked with laughter at you, the Brooks giggled at you, and the Camelthorn simply rolled with laughter all over the desert. But in general you were very beautiful, to be honest. The passing by

About You

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Time sometimes stumbled while eyeing you. The Wind gasped and rushed towards every time he caught sight of you. The Rain cried when he couldn‘t find you, and the Snowstorm subsided only after you looked out of the window. You trusted everybody, and everybody loved you, as it could not be otherwise. Many, many years have passed since then. New trees have grown in the garden, new paths have been laid across the snow and sand deserts, new towns have popped up everywhere. A lot of things have changed around. But not all. Because there are you: little, ingenuous and amusing. And very, very beautiful. As always.

A Sack of Potatoes fell in love with a Flower Basket. But a Waste Bin came between them. ―He is mine!‖ said the Waste Bin to the Basket and added gently, ―Don‘t you know that a half of his potatoes is already rotten?‖ The Flower Basket dragged herself along, holding back her tears. Toward her walked a Case of Beer and a Case of Whiskey. They noticed her and began to chase her. The poor Basket dashed away crying out, ―Help! Help!‖ The brave Sack of Potatoes jumped from around the corner, attacked the Cases and thrashed them soundly. The Flowers rejoiced; the Basket was happy. Both angry Cases went to a large trash container…

The Sack of Potatoes

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

And nearby, in that very Waste Bin, there was what‘s left of the Sack of Potatoes…

Page

The Basket came to the Bin and gave him all her flowers in exchange for what‘s left in him. The Bin laughed at the stupid Basket for a long time. One year has passed. Much potato grows in the Basket now—there are flowers as well as tubers. And there has long been nothing in the Waste Bin.

Dmitri Streshnev ИЕРУСАЛИМ Пока мы в квартирах – Просторных могилах – Спокойно и пьем, и едим, Солнце на спинах Несут пилигримы В далекий Иерусалим, И знают дороги Их стертые ноги, И знают их жажду ручьи, Если, устав, Склоняет уста К их звонкой воде пилигрим.

Page

Что лишает их сна?

Что их сводит с ума,

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Мысль о том, что за дальней чертой впереди, За пределом мечты, Поворотом крутым Ждет желанный Иерусалим. Без игл и без и нитки Из ветра накидку Сошьет пилигриму восход, И берегом синим По брюху пустыни Цепочка следов поползет. Пускай через воды Идут теплоходы – Им вымерять надо самим, Презревши уют

Свой путь в свой Иерусалим.

Удобных кают,

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Где-то там, словно тени – Желанные стены, Рыжий мох, злая пыль, Солнца факел над ним… Глаз слезятся осколки, Тянет руки в восторге К миражу своих грез пилигрим. От злого похмелья С тоски и с безделья Я тоже пойду, пилигрим, Взяв посох в ладони, За солнцем в погоню – Искать свой Иерусалим. Зачем, в самом деле,

Тонкого шелка тюрбаны… Вдаль по тесным крышам в голубой залив, Вниз стекая в уличную лень, Тянется тоскующий напев молитв, Первым утверждая приходящий день. Словно в лихой разлуке, К небу в пылу мольбы Тянут мечети руки, Лучшей ища судьбы. Там, в вышине, Есть или нет Желанный ответ?.. Пусть твои холмы, Алжир, покрыл асфальт, Шум машин стирает голоса,

Где тени так сонны и праздны В улочках-трещинах касбы. В камне заточен навек рассказ без слов В память дней набегов и нажив, В память тех горячих, удалых голов, Что лежат в пыли у стен твоих, Алжир. За полчаса до рассвета, Годы листая вспять, В небо ты смотришь это, Всѐ пережив опять: Дрѐму и боль, Славу и бой, И огонь. Я – ХАТХОР

Мое имя гранит здесь хранит с давних пор, Я играю мечтами, страстями людей. Я золотая, Вечно живая, Темноокая тайна промчавшихся дней; В полустертых камнях, змеей проскользая, Песок еле слышно поет обо мне. Оглянешься случайно – Покажется, что позади В храмах мертвых, печальных Я танцую среди руин. Но мгновенье мелькнуло, прошло –

The Prophet Devoted to Kahlil Gibran

The Prophet was looking At a big humble crowd. The people grew silent, His voice wasn‘t loud. They saw sparkling eyes With a deep dark-blue glow: ―You are much better, Than you yourselves know!‖ The people stretched hands, As they wished to know more: ―Tell us wise old man, How not to get sore?‖

His voice was so low:

And He looked at them gently,

And He whispered with dry lips,

Natalie Bisso LIKE NO ONE EVER I will tell you how the Arabian dark nights Hiding all the secrets of a lover from the virgin of love, That he composed a song about a girl‘s black eyes, How he loved and suffered, blessing her with every look. Let the starfall circle around, leaving the universe at random, Let the lilac heat fall on the planet in an instant! I am forever captured by a voluntary, sweet captivity, dreaming only of one thing: ―Someday I will be with you!‖ There is nothing more beautiful than feelings! Calm my rebellious soul!

Page

Only in the hope of your snow-white smile and look

If it‘s a sin to love like that, then I‘ve been fascinated by this sin for a long time!

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

I licked my wounds until I was stupefied by the sinful wine. With the purity of my soul, I am in love with your beautiful soul! Ah, what has my God rewarded me for in a sinful life? Gave me your image with innocently playful eyes, I love you like no one has ever loved you! I will atone for all my sins, I have completely sinned on this planet! Planets and stars will rotate there… I lived with a secret hope… I will be amazed if I tell the stars about the new plot, That I love you as much as no one has ever loved you! chorus: I adore you with the purity of my sinful soul! Magic and your voice, your laughter are incomparable with anything,

Page

You are my light! You are my God! My life, my refuge and my sin!

I have long since reached the highest peaks of bliss.

Nigar Arif WHEN YOU LEFT

I used to see the flushed eyes of life in geography class, I used to see the truths that erupt like volcano, and plains on which were creeping the lies under the truths, I used to see the fall down the knees of the highest mountains, The same wind was blowing in all countries, The same rain all over the world… I was a country myself,

Page

When I wanted to subdue the country like you

Yes, I was…

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

my heart was shaking like it was an earthquake; sweet waters were running, pure springs were running from the bottom of the most rocky and barren lands I used to see the beautiful faces of the best creatures in the far-off places… When you left… When you left, I realized that human being is the biggest iceberg; he will go on melting for years

Ashraf Aboul-Yazid Like a Butterfly Inventing the Spring

Seagulls come back, And butterflies return in their seasons, But the flower cut by the hands of the winds in the last winter, Will never come back. The last winter Carried the butterfly on its wings Leaving its coldness creeping In the soul tortured by Absence. The last winter

Page

As long as the weeping,

Was as short as the skirt of joy,

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Leaving the phrases of sadness In the notebook of hearts. The plains could be similar To her green heart. The sun may look like Her smile. Or it could be like a butterfly inventing the Spring,

Page

But nothing is similar to its departure.

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

A Train Crosses the Desert

These countries look like a train, That pull the air-conditioned coffins as a long tail. They look like a lady, With a dusty breast burnt by the sun, With a body painted by dried gardens. A train that cries between every two stations, Where pavements are made Of mirage and illusion. In its stomach we struggle, Fighting our defeats, To beautify our fake organs. The dragons of estrangement

Page

On what was left from our frightened bodies.

Are urinating in our bags,

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

We are insulting those countries, And spitting in one thousand and one towels. But, We are not leaving the train,

Even if we were able to stop it.

Fahredin Shehu Let it be one night more On the dark muslin of the night and the evaporating oudh disperses throughout It was someone galloping with heavy brocade apparel and overdone jewellery from the feet to the head top that broke my silence for far too long I utterly in awe exclaimed for God‘s sake: ―Let it be one night more… only one night to prolong life and leave all elixirs, balms and cures behind all hexes, potions and casted oaths throughout Aether that one day I will become!‖

Mustafa Gökçek FIRTINA Gece toz, duman ve ıslık sesleri Gün aydınlandı ve ortalık geceden kalma Hava birden soğudu, üşütmüşüm Bir öksürük gırtlak patlarcasına Geceden kalma bir çift yeşil göz Sabaha telaşla uyandırdı mahur gözlerimi Yaşanan ve var olan bir aşka koştururken Tüm dünya artık inceden selam durmalı Uzak diyarları yakın edermiş aşk Kalbin sesi yürekte biter, bazen nefeste Yaşamanın bedeli bu olmalı kaçınılmaz Kalbimin sesi vakurca kulak veriyor aşka…

ÖZGÜRCE YAġAMAK Kuş olsam uzak diyarlara Bulutların üstünde özgürce Konsam yorulduğunda kanatlarımı Dinlenirsem çeşme başında Uçsuz bucaksız bir ovada Bir uçtan öteki uca varsıllığıyla Yorgunluk bilmeden sonsuzluğa Her şeyin zamanını titretiyoruz Tüketilen yaşam coşkusu Tüketilen özgürlük gibi Koşarak ve yıpranarak Uçsuz bucaksız yarım özgürlüğe

SON KAPI Doğduğum gün düştüm yollara Çıkmaz sokaklarda ve patikalarda Ömrüm yola çıktığım han kapısını Aramakla geçti son kapıya doğru Yorgun düşlerimde yıpranmış aşklar Çoğu adresleri belli olmayan Öyle bir geçti ki zaman katıksız gecelerde Üstüne örtülü bir avuç toprakla Yoldan geçenler verirse ne ala İnceden bir selam yorgunlukla Koşturdum dolu bir maratonda Kan ter olsa da gözlerim, gözlerine değdiğinde…

Elmaya Cabbarova Könül Körpüsü

Çox baxıb göylərə düşünürəm mən, Yeni bir Şəhrizad olarmı məndən? Gecələr sübhədək uydurub nağıl, Qiymətli mükafat alaram səndən. Elm ilə ayənin vəhdətiyəm mən, Sevgi ilə səslənən bir surəyəm mən, Mənimçün yazılmış özəl dastanın, Əzəl kəlməsiyəm, şah bəndiyəm mən. Qəlbi ilə, ruhu ilə sevən yarımın, Könül Şahzadəsi, Sultanıyam mən,

Etmirəm şikayət, qəddi qamət məndədir,

Könül körpüsündə görüşmək çox asan, can, Bir nöqtəyə baxıb, xəyal qurmaq gözəl, can, Körpü möhkəm olar, mətanətin varsa, can, Büllur sevgi həm məndə, həm səndə olsa, can. Hər yeri, hər yanı gəzib olma Məcnun, can, Səhra onun, Leyli onun, küsmə candan, can, Dağ Fərhadın, Şirin onun, bilmirsənmi, can, Əsli olub Kərəmə yar, yandırsa da, can.

I look at the sky and think, Will there be a new Shahrizad from me? A fairy tale made up at night until dawn, I will receive a valuable reward from you. I am the unity of science and verse, I am a surah sung with love, A private saga written for me, I am an ancient word, I am a masterpiece. Loving half with heart, soul, I am the Sultan, Princess of Hearts, My headscarf in divine prostration, I am the crown princess on the throne of pride. I do not complain, I have an ancient stature, I am steadfast in love, faithful to my promise,

Rahim Karim Prophet Muhammad (PHUB) Translated a poem about you for a whole year, I put a point, but today at a late hour. I lived with you for a whole year, Mr. Prophet, How will I live, but then my life span? I kept thinking: maybe I won‘t make it to the end, I was even afraid that I was about to lose my mind. As if they stood next to me for a whole year, And oddly enough, I felt your gaze. Worked day and night, tirelessly, Lost vigilance vision, dull and hearing. And all the hair turned gray to the end,

Was there a pounding heartbeat in Arabia?

I dedicated all my year-long labor to God, I want the Almighty to forgive my sins. Khadija‘s love Love me as passionately as Khadija Fell in love as she then suddenly in Mohammed. Oh, is it really possible – to fall in love like in a book, Like Aphrodite, like Eve, Andromeda? Love me like Leili Majnuna You love me like Shirin Farhada. Oh, is it really possible – to fall in love madly, In Arabia, steppe, desert and sugar. All the strongest, but the love of Saint Khadija, One cannot fall in love with the young Prophet! Oh, how she wanted to become closer to him,

You love me like mother Khadija,

With all body and mind, in joy and sorrow. If you love so passionately and ―shamelessly‖ Oh, love me, I will answer you! The standard of men I ask for strength, power, majesty of Mohammed, And courage, wisdom and patience, glory, spirit. How he lived in the world at times, at the very least, Give me his love, and shoulders, arm strength. Only Mohammed for us, after all, the standard of Men! Not Batman, no, not Spider-Man. Nothing happens in the world without a reason

I will tell you a fairy tale, my daughter of Sheherazade, a beautiful Persian princess, who had married a cruel King, who, every night took a new wife, and before dawn took their life. One day, a beautiful Persian princess, Scheherazade heard about the King. She said she wanted to spend the night with him. Her father strongly disagreed, but Sheherezade didn‘t listen. She met the King and spent the whole night telling the story.

At the end of the night,

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

The King wanted to hear the end of the story, but Scheherazade said he would have to wait until the following night to hear the rest. And the following night she finished her story and started a new one, which she broke off again at dawn. The King had to wait again one more night to hear the rest of the story. That way Scheherazade continued telling stories for 1001 nights. Eventually, the King fell in love with Scheherazade and they lived happily ever after. So, remember my daughter, a wise woman can get, what she desires for in her life. Body beauty comes always second;

Borislav Batin Ispovest…

Page

Ne poznajem puteve praznine Nemam pojma gde spava moje crno srce… Moj korak je kratak, ţivot se naţalost otegao, propustio sam trenutak da umrem mlad, samospoznan i samosaznan i sazdan od besmrtnog trajanja u jednom glasu i na talasu zbilje da beskonačim i sada: Beţim od toga, ne zbog straha i neznanja i kajanja i sanjanja i davanja Moja krv i genska mapa je stara onoliko koliko je i vaša i pamti, sve ono što zaboravlja… Putovao sam po bibliotekama, po pijacama, po šinama, brazgotinama mozga, po sunčevim pegama, po crnim rupama, ronio, plovio, leteo

131

Znam… Nisam, onaj…pesnik Koji se usuĎuje i teče revolucijom reči koje menjaju stepen slobode Da van svoje u svojoj pameti Krene za njim bez pogovora, prati Onoga što reči osmisli i pozlati Nisam toliko pametan ni hrabar Da opijen, opijam tuĎa stada Niti umem, da poletim anĎeoskim krilima i usudim se da sletim, da padam… Slep sam…ne vidim crno sunce…

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Stiskao u pesnici reči, glasove, hukove, zvukove, tokove, izvore mislilica, pratio jata ptica… Ne pevam o ljubavi svojoj, onoj, Davno opevanoj u ţitijama nepoznatih svetaca na freskama čistih, belih, okrečenih istinom zidova svetilišta na tajnim, nepristupačnim mestima, bez ulaza i izlaza za one, za sve ine, s ključom bezglasne, neopevane tišine u kojoj postoji mesta samo za mene i nikog više… Moţete me voleti i mrzeti, ignorisati i diviti mi se, ţaliti me, vreĎati, pljuvati i ljubiti…sve jedno je…jer ne ostaje ništa u vašem oku i kad koja suza za me zablista i kad po mom tragu krenete, ne moţete nikada stići tamo gde je moje stanište i svratište i konačište, jer mene nikuda nema i svuda me ima, gde se uspinje svetlost iz moga oka, gde teče moja krv neljubljena od čoveka…već… Samo…ispovest ova stoji i čeka me Da se vratim otuda, onuda iz svukuda, niodkuda, nikamo i nigdi me nema nestajem, jer stajem… Ostajem i stojim Samo za sebe tu postojim…

Zelena čoja, kugle bilijara i biljarda na Cetinju… Tragovi u kršu, lava i lavovi kiparisa Sve staje i nestaje Kao u nekom zdencu U kući na Oplencu U šoljici crnog čaja Na nekom pariskom štafelaju Postmodernistički likuju servirane stvari… U nekom danu za čaj I očaj…

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Ali Alhazmi Be nothing but ashes Throwing Your Grief as a Rock into the Sea In your forties, Wingless, You urge the meaning to fly once again, As though you are powerful enough, once more, To step over the clouds. Heading towards your own wilderness, The winds put all sins of the tale upon your shoulders. Since you stopped at the gates of your past, With chained legs, Neither your years returned to the song, Nor did the gorgeous girls come back

Page

To your fields.

137

From the trees of childhood jocundly

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

In your forties, There, near the springs, Longing takes you towards the deers, That no more listen to your songs, When you feel their approaching foot-steps, And when the bird of words chirps On a lonely branch in the heart. You throw your grief like a rock into the sea And see your face burning In the furnace of the lost painful moment. In your forties, When you are fastened To the flutes on the shawl of a ballad, Find a dove forgotten in your own travelling meaning.

Page

With sighs of the memory that circle around your soul

138

Do not exhaust the tender melody

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Like a bracelet. In your forties, The past assumes you are so close to its orchards, While you are there still stuck in the wilderness of your fantasies. When you started your voyage Towards your glittering metaphor, You paid no attention to the thorny questions Staring from afar at your feet. In your forties on the roads, No more you need to fold your shadows, As you head towards the pleasures of life, Trying to reach the lost bank of the river. Memory asks, ―When was it when you went bewildered

Page

What would have hurt your innocent past if you stopped

139

In the presence of oblivion?‖

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

At its noble gates for greeting, For dropping off the burdens of rejection That have watered your eyes with thirst of nothingness?‖ In your forties, a woman from the past visits you; Don‘t be rude to her flutes By asking about her distant love stories. Save her from the deceptive mills, Restore her to pure joy, And to her flowers; Listen to the bird of her soul Neglected in the trees of absence; Be like soft rains for her if she goes astray; Be a metaphorical chord if she smiles;

But, when you approach her extensive fires,

If she looks at you.

And be an existential passion,

САРЗАМИНИ МУҚАДДАС Poem in Tajik (original) Муқаддас сарзамине ҳаст, он ҷо меҳр пайдо шуд, Дар ин дунѐи зулмат як сипеҳри нав муҷалло шуд. Шабонгаҳ андар ин кишвар, саропо пур зи эъҷоз аст, Ба Меъроҷу Бароту Қадр, амри Ҳақ мусаффо шуд. Дили мо гашта маҷнун дар раҳи ишқи Худовандам, Ба он Зоти муборак волаю мафтуну шайдо шуд. Китоби ишқ омад бар наҷоти мардуми дунѐ, Ба Макка, Каъба аз нав чун сафои нур эҳѐ шуд. Аз ин ҷо баҳри тавҳид карда даъват мардуми дунѐ, Зи ҳарфи Ҳақ ду чашми кӯри зулмат бозу дарѐ шуд.

Агар маҷмӯае омода гардидаст дар дунѐ,

Пас он бошад муқаддас Каъба, ки маъвои дилҳо шуд. Ба ѐди дидани ин хонаи Парвардигори худ, Дили Қаҳҳор чун оина зебою мубарро шуд. Абдуқаҳҳори Қосим (Қосимов Абдуқаҳор Сатторович) Abdukakhor Kosim (Kosimov Abdukakhor Sattorovich)

Ô vert pays des souvenirs Ô vert pays des souvenirs, Partout des séquences de vie, comme dans un film. Tragicomédie, poème … Non, attends, Je vois bien le jardin fleuri de mon amour Et la forêt dense et sombre de mes chagrins. Comme un poulain, je galope dans le pré, Je vois mon enfance comme si j‘étais au paradis.

Qu‘en est-il du loup de mes doutes ? Un pur échec…

Dans l‘épaisse forêt je n‘entends que des hurlements. Seul le souvenir de ma mère M‘apporte joie et paix à mon âme. Soudain le soleil se lève à l‘horizon Et illumine la mémoire de mes années passées.

Гурги яъсу ноумедї, Гурги рашку вањшати ман, Меравад бар бешаи анбўњ. Ёди модар, чун тулўи офтоб, Мебарояд аз паси кўњ. Мешавад рўшан њама љо, сарзамини сабзи хотир,

Ô Patrie, tu es ma poésie! Oui, Patrie, ma vraie poésie ! Tu es ma totale bénédiction. Tu es mon tout, tout ce qui fut, tout ce qui est. Tu es l‘étendard de mes espoirs. Les millénaires dissimulent la fureur ennemie, Même de nos jours, ils sont heureux de te lapider, Mais les pierres de tes montagnes, les pierres de ta terre sont une bénédiction pour toi ! Avec elles tu construiras des maisons, en dépit de sa haine, Je suis ton bouclier, ô patrie, qui te garde des malheurs, Et Toi, Toi ; Tu es la somme de mes années heureuses.

Je recouds ces blessures avec les fils de mon âme,

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Je te remets sur pieds, je te bénis Parce que nulle part ailleurs que dans mon âme flamboient Les fleurs de tes jardins, qu‘on appelle bonheur ! Pour que tu sois, je suis prêt à devenir poussière. Pour que tu vives, je ne serai pas avare de ma vie. Et si besoin est, je ressusciterai de la poussière, Et de mon corps tout entier Je défendrai ta grandeur, ô Patrie ! Même si jamais il le faut J‘irai jusqu‘à ressusciter les morts, et en rangs serrés nous nous dresserons. Je ne laisserai pas l‘ennemi fouler ta terre, ô ma chère Patrie ! Mais comment ferais-je autrement, car, même mort, je reste ton fils !

ТУ БАЙТЊОИ ШЕЪРИ МАН, ВАТАН Poem in Tajik (original)

Ту байтњои шеъри ман, Ватан, Ту модари ба љон баробарам, Ту буди ман, набуди ман, туї њама вуљуди ман. Хазорсолањо туро, ки чанг мезанад адўи ту, Ба њар бањонае, ки санг мезанад ба сўи ту, Вале ба ту намекунад асар, Чаро ки њафт пушти ман туро шуда сипар. Ватан, ватан, манам зи ту, туї зи ман, Ту тољи ман, ту тахти ман, туї ягона бахти ман. Љароњати туро ба дастњои худ ба њам кашам, Бидўзамат ба риштањои љон, бисозамат зи нав, Вагарна бе ту ман, нафас намекашам.

Вале чу мерасад ба ту хатар, зи хок сар бурун кашам, Ба устухони хештан туро шавам сипар. Фиѓон зи хок мекашам, вале ба душманат Ба марзу буми ту намедињам гузар, намедињам гузар. Чаро, ки модари манї, манам туро писар, Манам туро писар. Абдуқаҳҳори Қосим (Қосимов Абдуқаҳор Сатторович) Abdukakhor Kosim (Kosimov Abdukakhor Sattorovich)

Je détruis en moi cette sombre maison sans fenêtre Pour que le vent de ma Patrie vienne mouiller mes lèvres, Pour que le vent de ma Patrie vienne rafraîchir mon cœur. Pour que les boucles noires de ma bien-aimée Caressent mon visage de leur parfum, Pour que l‘odeur de ma mère me parvienne autrement que dans mes rêves… Mais tout cela n‘est que rêve

James Tian, Tianyu （1）Death is Merely a Peace As small as a seed, And thin like a tree. Maybe one day is the last day, Perhaps somedays I‘ll vanish. Like a star full of hope, Like a river never empty. What the choice of my fate, I don‘t want to be that Paris. Yearning for more dreams, Ignored the stuff and switches. Disappeared just like appearing again tomorrow,

Razni gradovi i sela…, reĎaju se slike u slikovnici, da se vratim na svom ognjištu moja je velika ţelja samo da sa obale Dunava mahnem otprhloj ptici. Putovanja su uvek posebna i draga, o svakom svedoči suvenir ili razglednica, ali ništa nije lepše, no zakoračiti preko sopstvenog kućnog praga, poseban je miris zemlje, svetiljka usnulog svica… Ţivot vodi uvek negde dalje, smenjuju se godišnja doba,

u kome čovek grabi da svoje ciljeve ostvari… Moj je ţivot kao Simbadovo putovanje, Ţivot me vodi od mesta do mesta i nikada ničeg dosta nije, ni romantične muzike orkestra koja oţivljava prošlost kroz lagane note samo da tajne moje duše otkrije… Sa tobom mi nikada na tim putovanjima Dosadno nije…

LJUBAV… Posle bura i oluja Posle oseka i plima U duši ljubav buja Poslednju reč ima…

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

ponekad stvara sumnju, čudi, sa njom se nesporazum briše. Osećanja u grudima naviru Zbog ljubavi se ţivi, ponekad se predaje nemiru sitnici divi. Na kraju opstaje se radi ljubavi Radi ţelje da se voli, nesporazum zaboravi, srce o istom bi da govori… Posle bura i oluja Posle plima i oseka, ljubav je ta koja teče venama kao nabujala reka…

With humour There‘s only one man in the world I can give birth to a son. To give joy at dawn, To surprise what children can be. It‘s as if the goldfish did it, The snow queen has got you. As if by the will of a bogeyman there will be another phenomenon. I want to bear you a son, to bring up another man. I already have a son and daughters, as if grown in one night. It‘s as if the apple tree had been shaken

Deema Mahmood Death of a Poet Translated by: Nordddine Zouitni

I heard that a close-by poet crouched inside the mouth of death I don‘t know him But the squeaking that smacked my nerve ends Alerted me to the void around Perhaps because death sensors in my imagination gleaming in all directions showed no mercy. They were loading children, teenagers, beautiful women, Paupers, vendors, old people, lovers, and gays for free

A poet dies That means the curve of the street corner will be sharper That bullshit will pour out of the belly of indifference That more holes and garbage will accumulate in the back street That pine and oak trees will bend That the executioner will increase the number of guillotines getting ready for the massacre When the poet dies the wall on which jasmine sleeps will fall The maysaloon will wither, doves will cry Seas will pour into rivers Vine tree will yield raisins And young maidens will awaken from love dreams

And he‘ll seep into the eye of the sun After hiding it from the eye of death And hiding death from death itself. He‘ll gather its light into balls that he‘ll roll over the earth So that others dance with butterflies on their way to death! Becoming a fetus

I roll over myself hoping to feed on the grass of beginnings I become a fetus And get high on the musky scent of placenta I recover that eternity which for a while was entwined with my mother Becoming one with it through orbits and spheres. I emerge clean of all human sediment

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

I become, and I get going, without myths and prophecies. Throwing up

I‘m throwing up, Yes throwing up! I curse the genes that bound me to the human race And handed me over to this chaos I wish I were a mangy or a Shirazi cat, A mad or a well-bred dog. I don‘t care, I wish I were a little bird, Or a fly teeming with microbes from dumpsites, Endowed with a pair of wings To go far away and pull my soul

I‘m searching for an exit.

Twined with night and words, Scheherazade narrates tale of Sinbad and Salma, With bond of heart and words, They Dodge the guards. To flee the sultan‘s swords. On the enchanted, the virgin island, They Befriended trees, rivers and the bushes, Dived naked to catch fish and maturity, Hearts discovered secret of love and virility. Fruit of passion sustained them,

Caroline LAURENT Turunc AN OLD TALE! I met him on a rainy day I was waiting at the stop, she was running towards the ticket office. The ticket office was closed, I realized for a moment that she was scared and upset, I had an extra ticket in my pocket and I gave it to her. When I say hello to a friend whose language I don‘t know She was trying to warm her hands, which were pink from the cold. I took off my gloves, told her to wear them, she didn‘t want to take them, I insisted on it, then she thanked me and took them with a sweet smile. I‘m glad them took the glove and put them on. It was as if I had suddenly fallen into silence and the world had stopped there.

My heart felt like it was going to explode, It was a dream I didn‘t want to end

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Spring had come to my soul, it was as if there was no white hair left on my head. And the sky suddenly changed colors, I felt all the colors of the rainbow on my cheeks Paris: This must be what they call the city of lovers, I wet my bones like two clouds merge. It was like going up to the sky, if there was a river next to me, I would wet my heart with cold water. I won‘t get tired of looking into your eyes for days I quickly fell into the garden of love. I turned my head and looked at the garden of love It was very different from the Grass I played with in my childhood, it was more lively and exciting. They say every wound has a price, the smell of that price was very nice.

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

The doorbell rang, I opened the door, the princess of my dreams was in front of me, she was a little shy! She was wearing a purple silk dress Smell of amber, her hair was a flame in the dim light I‘m in the sky where lightning strikes and splits When I look down I am in a great fire, as if I were the smoke from a volcano. I sat on the sofa to clear my mind. Fears I‘ve never felt before. I started looking at the ceiling as if searching for something, I looked for a long time. mixed fear and joy love all in one If you don‘t speak for a long time your throat will rust I touch my nose, my mouth, my eyes, my face, I see the green night. We made love until we melted in the pouring rain With our white kisses we carried all ages to the sky without stairs

Vatsala Radhakeesoon Travelling with the Muse

The dawn diffused its usual silence, But in my mind swirled the dichotomy – Should I paint, paint, paint or should I write, write, write; Brushes or keyboard venerating High Tech? Head or Tail? I didn‘t know. Oh Gosh! What was going on? Amidst my indecisiveness, between burnt sienna and umber paint tubes, settled a russet fox with eyes twinkling cunningness and the Mars black patch of its tail prided itself of the undying elegance.

We saw golden roofed palaces, terracotta walls sheltering magical rose gardens, yellowish roofs welcoming red and green kites, We landed in a cave intertwined with golden

―Who are you?‖ I asked, ―Muse of mystery‖ It replied ―Sit on my back, come with me!‖ It ordered. Wings appeared on each side of its body, It looked like She-Ra‘s horse metamorphosing.

necklaces and some secretive camouflaged snakes. A lamp rested on an ebony table.

Aladdin asked the genie to bring us grapes, bananas and freshly-made breads. Then he narrated his story of getting a ring from the sorcerer, and the ring leading him to a genie, Afterwards, he got a lamp in the cave, and the lamp held another genie who helped him to become rich; He lived in a gorgeous palace and was married to the Sultan‘s daughter. ―Ah‖ he concluded ―From a poor boy to a rich man, such has been my Fate. Oh Life, my dear guests! You can never know. Always keep faith! I pray for you, terrestrial creatures to end your sufferings, With the help of my loyal genie

247

My muse mumbled some mantras, unfamiliar to me; and in front of us appeared a cerulean blue genie , then the groomed Aladdin , I was mesmerized by his spotless white turban harmonizing with the chiselled Emerald gem at a centric point.

I can see, I can feel the pain you are facing during this pandemic! Keep faith my friends! You are all my friends.‖ ―Oh, dear poetess and sweet Fox‖ went on saying Aladdin, ―To each of you, I give you an emerald ring . Its deep magical powers you will soon discover, but if you simply wear it as a daily ring it will also protect you from omens, curses and bless you with good health. Now , I bid you goodbye, my dear guests.‖ Before leaving, I gazed again at this mystic land. ―Let‘s go back, now‖ requested my foxy muse. We were back in my inspirational room soon, About Aladdin, about the genie – I kept writing poems after poems for hours. Oh what an amazing travel ! Thank you, Dear Muse, Thank you Aladdin! Thanks to the great genie!

We spent our childhood On the imaginary mat of Arabian Nights To climb with the Clouds from sky to sky Light comes from the leaves of olive tree We spent our nights to imagine the Keharman Jinny Thinking about fulfilling three desires Our desires are from three to three hundred The frogs would jump on the water to play We never read Arabian Nights Yet it is alive and well in our consciousness.

Floating on the wings of a butterfly. Come to the Arabian Nights of my youthful childhood By riding on a camel Our merchants have never read history However, in the guise of merchants, They migrated from country to country Flying tents are built around the planets and satellites Watching the game of hide-and-seek. To the rhythm of Alif Layla‘s song Winter night falls on our backyards. Let the Arabian night tell our story.

Kokoh kakimu melangkah pasti Mengejar rindu yang tertunda Pasir malam cemburu melihatmu Tatapanmu menikam rembulan Sang bintang merunduk malu, menatap mesra dada bidangmu Angin padang pasir menggelitik mesra Bangkitkan imaji menari liar Desahmu hentikan detak jantung Desiran darahmu melantunkan lagu tentang cinta Aku berbisik lirih di telingamu

Biarkan bintang dan rembulan cemburu Pada kekuatan cinta kita

TERPESONA Gemulai tubuhmu menari di atas permadani Meliuk mengikuti hentak gemerincing gelang kakimu Anak birahi menangis diam Kemilau bibirmu melahirkan mimpi Kerlingmu memutuskan benang yang terajut indah Terkapar dipesonamu Malam ini, gerembolan angan mengajakmu ke bilik Meluruhkan hasrat malam Dinding terdiam mengukir sejuta cerita malam

Di kedalaman bola matamu ada asa yang menggantung Menatap purnama tanpa kedipan Senyum indahmu tersapu malam Tetes bening menganak sungai Angin malam memeluk, mengecup mesra citamu Malaikat membuka baju langit Menyelimuti malammu, dendangkan kidung doa Pelukan langit hangatkan jiwamu Gadis berkerudung hitam, memejamkan mata Menghirup malam Bibirnya merekah manis

Sosonjan A.Khan SATU MALAM BERSAMASCHEHERAZADE

Page

Melangkah masuk ke ruangyang bergemerlapangetaran ketaksuban memenuhi segenap jiwaapakah ini sebuah kenyataan? Aku duduk di atas sehelai permaidani bertahta intan permata, oh betapa misteri hidup ini dalam semerbak wangian dupa, menyandardi atas tilam-tilam empuk sutera,menikmati buah- buah anggur yang manisdan meneguk air madu yang lazat dalam gelas- gelas emas dan perakinikah gambaran syurga? Tapi Scheherazadepasti, bukan itu yang kau dambakanketika begitu berani maju ke hadapan siap menggadai nyawa.

283

Bulan purnama terang benderang menghiasi malam yang terbentang. Di tepi jendela yang lama terbuka, terbelai oleh angin yang nyaman,kulihat Aladdin bersama tikar terbang datanguntuk menjemputku. Sungguh ini pasti bukan sebuah khayalanketika berada di ruang udara, berlegar di sekitar awan gemawan, dingin angin yang menerpadi bawah indahnyacahaya yang menyinar menuju ke gerbang mahligai Raja Shahrayar untuk mengintai 1001 malam.

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Gelora kencang di dadakuketika berhadapan denganpedang tajam di tangan Raja Shahrayaraduhai Scheherazademungkinkah kau juga akanmenjadi penebus dendamangkara dosa wanita pertama dalam hidupnya? Kini Scheherazadeseperti wanita-wanitayang lebih dahulu menikmati hanya semalam bersamanyanasibmu juga akan celakadi hadapan raja yang siapuntuk memenggal kepalasetelah pagi menjelma. Tidak kudugaternyata malam iniadalah sebuah malamyang paling panjangterus mengembara jauh bersama sebuah demi sebuah cerita dari ilham Scheherazade, dan rajatenggelam dalam pesonayang paling mengasyikansehingga hampir terlupabegitu jauh masa berlalubahawa kami sudah hampir sampai ke hujung 1001 malam, di mana segala keraguan telah sirna, segala kebencian telah musnahakhirnya bertukar menjadipaduan cinta sempurna. Scheherazadedaripada 1001 malamyang dihuni oleh ketakutanmalam ini adalah malamseorang RATU SERIKANDIyang telah berjayamerubah pembunuh menjadi kekasih!

From ancient times the traces of nature, I see the secret in the folded works. Cheese mother of many different tribes, In the cradle of the climate. I want to write an indelible legacy for posterity, Many of my ancestors marked the stone, Overgrown with Karatau, The tribes of the land of cheese are Massaget. Between Syr and Amu Darya. The city of Shipik Rabat. All the Turkic people will come, Here lies the common ancestor of Cork. The cheese is called ―Mother of Alash‖,The lake is full of resins The yellow of the ancient Oguzs .his morning the status is preserved as clay. Sometimes it is summer, sandy, desert steppe, Flat, bare, branched. The water of the cheese brought the island to the surface,It flows from the base of the area. It is the breath of life, White rice valley right and left, east. He became a man of two legs, Kasymtai‘s son is a revelation to the country. Before the beginning of the story, Heads with history are always just songs. For months they sang, Kete Yusup, Dur Ongar and Turumbet. Thousands of tapes were recorded with the status, The sky was filled with magical music.

Ngozi Olivia Osuoha MY KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOUR

Page

313

I will tell you stories, stories of my lifeHow I broke the knife under strife, To become your wife. My knight in shining armour I will tell you tales, tales of rumour, When I passed through stupor To have a stinking odour. I will tell you daily, days, and noons of one thousand and one nightsTo light up your might and make you alright, Because you are my knight, my knight in shining armour. Folklores, tales, under the moon, moonlight My king in a golden palaceWait, I prepare a dance, a dance to dance with the dazzling stars, Because you are my knight in shining armour. I will tell you of love, not lustI will tell you of Sinbad, the hero and his adventures, his seven voyages To sooth and calm your spiritAs your soul takes a bliss To fall asleep gently in my arms. Whether in the east or west, north or south Asia, Africa, Australia, America, Europe I will do you five thousand and five nights, Stories, tales, pantomimes, folklores, and many more until the end of time, Because you are my knight in shining armour!

Dr. Ranjana Sharan Sinha SINDBAD THE SAILOR The pages of The Thousand and One Nights, Trigger mystery with imaginations and flights! On a long shoreline of wonder I stand As Sindbad leaps into life in ancient land!

Page

The strange valley of snakes larger than life Which could swallow elephants without strife! The gorge floor carpeted with diamonds bright; The white orb & the mythical bird sudden in sight! Captured in a forest by Old Man of the Sea, jet black, An encounter with a marine monster and the attack!

316

In the modern world with existential dilemma That unleash skepticism and mental trauma The mesmeric and hair-raising voyages seven, Thrill us much more than the tales of heaven– Setting sail from Basra with merchandise precious, The sailor from Baghdad was brave and courageous. His adventures through seas and surreal realms Unfold like the reels of great supernatural films– He arrived on shore what appeared to be an island, But oh, surprisingly, everything got out of his hand! The seeming land was a sleeping gigantic whale With big trees grown all over that caused travail!

317

The feats and marvels fill me with awe tremendous: Sindbad: he never ever fell into despair amid dangers! Fired constantly by wanderlust, the intrepid sailor Endured shipwrecks, cannibalism with wit like a razor! I hark back to history and a similar Odyssey I find– Sindbad and Odysseus: the two of the same kind!

Sanhita Sinha Three Wishes On a winter night in a sweet dream, I met the princess, beautiful and serene! How gaily and merrily she was dancing! With her love, charming Aladdin. It was nice to meet the old Sultan, How magical was the moment, filled with fun! With lots of joy I walked forward, And in that ceremony I also took part.

Page

I wished , all children must learn , must go to school. Let education be their strongest tool. Our real Ginies are our old parents, Whatever we wish, they always grant. They must live with us not in old age homes Let the animals too, in this world, find a peaceful room.

333

Oh! when that blue guy came close to me, With his big smile he told, he was the Ginie! Asked my three wishes that he wanted to fulfill !I smiled, that was truly a joy, I could feel.

Let there be love and friendship like princess and Aladdin. Let there be peace and prosperity, for my world, That‘s all I dream. ―Granted‖! That‘s all he said and sweetly grin, Suddenly I woke up, and found It was just my dream! Still I believe, like princess we all are lovely and caring, Clever like Ginie and brave like charming Aladdin.

Some day my wishes will surely come true Not by Aladdin or Ginie, but By me and some by You.

Shokhida Yusupova Arabian Nights He displeased wind blows the curtain , And complains that I should rest deeply. I hear the sound of laughter of the night, The desire not to let nights be sleepy. The nights are full of endless dreams, It wants to enter my mind without allowance. My stubbornness grow stronger against the night! I don‘t want to give my dreams jealously! Pillow puts my head on its own head, And we build long talks about life. The pillow is my closest confidant Without us, my room is just a grave! I am a sea, my pillow is my wave!

Page

I was the one who comes and goes, From the roads that do not across. I am the one whose name is pain, Whose breath is a silent patience! Under each of my steps, There is a long Sirat bridge! In the land of the rain, It is difficult to be dusty. My crazy spirit is Getting mixed with the land. If I say ‗God‘, my left breast, Shining with a bright light! In the deepest place of snow, I am the surviving tulip. Only tolerance is my law, Only your name is my cure! Dreams are not mirage, Lovers are not humiliated. If your breasts don‘t melt, Duas will not come true. If the tongue does not tremble, Suffering is not suffering. Living is not important! Who am I without you, God, I‘m a firefighter

Nermina SubašiĤ PriĦat Ĥu ti kao Šeherzada

Pričat ću ti kao Šeherzada, da produţim s‘ tobom ovu noć, a u sebi potajno se nadat, da nam jutro nikad neće doć‘. Pričama ću da te drţim budna, da me gledaš tim očima sjetnim, vodit ću te ja u njima svuda, ţelim tebe učiniti sretnim. Neka sunce za oblakom bude, mjesečina neka vječno svjetli,

Marija AleksiĤ Šahrijarova sreĤa

Istok drevni mirise šalje Opojnu pesmu ona nam daje, Crna kosa do pojasa pada, Reči su njena poslednja nada . Lepotica drevna smislila je priče, Jedna na drugu ne sme da liče Opasnog Šahrijara mora da zavede, Opake reči srce joj lede.. Neverstvo drage ubilo mu sve, Milosti nema , srce mu je led

Oh, smrt dolazi , prolaze joj sati. Muzikom strah svoj leči, Dok zanosno igra ona smislja reči, Ţivot joj je mio, ţeli još da ţivi, Nadvio se nad njom oblak sivi. Pojavi se princ , u oči je gleda Od nje osta samo senka bleda. Poče priču lepotica vrela, Šahrijara gordog potpuno je zanela. Prva noć proĎe tiho sasvim Umesto smrti, zamirisa jasmin. Osta ţiva ona, nečemu se nada, Smišlja ona novu priču sada. Svaka noć prolaziše tako,

Rodi se ljubav što mu dušu zapara. Opila ga kćer njegovog vezira, Njena priča njemu ne da mira. Budan čeka car svako veče novo Srce više nije teško olovo . Vrhunac drame pred zoru čeka Kći vezira njemu nadje leka. Lepotica bujna istokom zavlada, Nema više tuge, nema ni jada Hiljadu i jedna noć proĎoše za tren.

Nina Abdul Razzak Jafar The father of Dunyazad and the famous Scheherazade Better known as the vizier of King Shahryar And given the birthname of Jafar, Was never, in life, expected to get too far. From beheading young brides of King Shahryar every night To being a helpless father fearing for his daughter‘s life, Jafar‘s destiny was bound to change Only when Scheherazade decided to become the King‘s wife. For many, including Jafar himself,

No one ever imagined that she‘d outsmart the King

Her marriage meant that before morning, she certainly dies.

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

With nothing but everlasting tales created by a girl so wise. After 1001 nights, her adventurous tales came to an end, And all risks and dangers threatening her life vanished. Jafar, then, arose from his long state of worry and distress And all feelings of misery from his heart got banished. Not only that but even more Jafar outlived his daughter‘s 1001 nights with glory, Traveled to Samarkand, replaced its Sultan, and lived immortally As the vizier in Middle Eastern history‘s most famous story!

NGUYEN THANH HAI Dốc sông Khi cơn mưa phơi phóng lên chiều Là nỗi nhớ vừa tím vừa khép trên những chùm xấu hổ Thương con chim Ďứng trong lồng giả bộ Nó hót cho ai mà nó buồn Những người Ďang Ďi trên niềm vui có bao giờ ngó xuống Dưới mỗi phận người cũng là Ďất à ơi… Có phải con Ďom Ďóm mang giùm ngày buồn phơi lên tối Giữ chút xanh xao câu thương nhớ cũ rồi Thì nước dưới chân cầu cũng là nước sông thôi Lỡ có rách cũng Ďừng trách hờn gì sông rạch

395

Sóng cứ vỗ tay Ďi cho chiều kêu róc rách

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Cơn mưa già bạc trắng phía sông non Trong mưa bãi bồi cũng muốn làm pho tượng Đã chung một dòng sông sao còn chia hai hướng Để phía tôi về cứ mãi lớn ròng ngược dốc sông…

River slope When the rain showers up in the afternoon It‘s nostalgia that is both purple and closed on clusters of shame Love the bird standing in the cage pretending Who does it sing for when it‘s sad Those who are walking on joy never look down Under each human part is also the land… Is it the firefly that brings the sad day to the dark?

If it breaks, don‘t blame the rivers and canals

Keep a little pale old nostalgia

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Waves keep clapping until the afternoon hums Let go of the old wharf, both sides miss it The old white rain on the riverside In the rain, the mudflat also wants to make a statue Having shared a river, why is it still divided in two directions? Let my side keep growing up the river slope…

Lại bước tiếp qua cổng người

Không thể Ďợi chờ những cánh chim ly hương trở về sau những tháng ngày kiêu bạc Thì ngồi xuống Ďây rót cho nhau những buồn vui dâu bể Thì ngồi xuống Ďây chan nhau chút Ďỉnh chén xuân này

Hỏi bao nhiêu ly rượu Ďong Ďược buổi Ďoàn viên

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Hỏi bao nhiêu Ďắng cay cho một lần nước mắt Chẳng lẻ gặp nhau chỉ Ďể kể những tháng ngày Ďã mất Chẳng lẽ nói nhau hoài về những cuộc không Ďâu Thôi bao nhiêu lặn lội mình biết Ďược vũng Ďời nông sâu Thì sầu riêng cuối mùa vẫn gửi Thì nước dừa vẫn thơm Thì cụm tầm xuân lâu rồi vẫn mới Người về gặp qua giây lát Rồi Ďi như buổi giao mùa Gặp nhau cuối năm Ďã là quá khứ Những buồn vui thân phận những cái nhớ mênh mông lại bước tiếp qua cổng người…

Then sit down here and pour each other‘s joys and sorrows Then sit down here and have a good cup of spring together The person who texted this afternoon who came back Yes, waiting like an eternal stream Ask how many glasses of wine can measure the reunion Ask how much bitterness for one tear Never met each other just to tell the lost days Why don‘t we always talk about empty lives? No matter how much I swim, I know that life is shallow and deep Then the end of season durian still sent Then coconut water is still fragrant

Then go like the season change

Nawar Ahmad al-Shater Travelling Nostalgias I look for A language that resembles us And would narrate the stories That we lives Oh how I dreamed To be Scheherazade Who lights up Your nights And oh how my heart hid Many endings about you Nostalgia travels with us Into the depths of tales Whose hero is passion. Shivering Are the emotions In your warm embrace Turning into a poem That your lips turn Into songs Only then Love flies to us On fascinating planes And your eyes become The destiny at all places.

The Secret of Stories

Scheherazade Is the secret of stories The night lets me Narrate The details of the Novel. The story is my play I make of the letters The dresses of adventure. I steal from Aladdin His magic lamp To light up the night. In the mirroring letters, I look for My forty lookalikes The dawn calls For the ending, And death Kills the story My Sheheryar, Wait up I am a woman Who takes her A Thousand and one nights That you will never get enough of.

A Thousand and One Kisses

Page

411

In the embrace of the night, The encounter drifted away To the bay of her heart A wish, Wrote with a longing passion A thousand rhyming poems In the sea of her poetry When her disappointment Almost woke up From her pink dreams The morning sang Spreading the early rays of sunshine On her waves of hope Elongating her passion With its light Into another dream. And her pain becomes numb For another night. Her heart who anxiously longs Made her forget That it was still the first tear Of a tale about a thousand and one kisses And love heals The wounds that tired her The encounter plays hide and seek Along the distances of separation And the night becomes a daydream And so the pain goes silent Alongside the loud cries

The night was cold, dark and menacing Somewhere in the deserts Sometime long, long ago A young, virginal bride of a revengeful King Shahryar Had pronounced the death sentence on the innocent maiden Scheherazade.

Bravely she ventured forth

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

After consummating on his wedding nights. Three years of killings thus passed One fair virgin felled by his lust every day thus But then came Scheherazade‘s turn The calamitous night she dared to wager on Desperation and ingenuity Kept her alive every night Spinning a tale on Thousand Nights and One Night She held the king captive With suspense, wonder and excitement Valour, honour, myth and mystery The king was agog with curiosity The fantasies spun a web And in it he was caught out of depth

Page

Wit and wisdom were her only tactics

415

So the night hours ticked

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

And on the Three Hundred and Fifty Seventh night The new bride began her tale Of an exquisite ebony horse A marvel of wood inlaid with gold, gems and jewels And the adventures of the honourable Persian prince. *** In the court of great King Sabur of Persia Three wise sages came with gifts Seeking fortunes and favours rich One crafty old man sought the princess‘ hand In return for the marvels the horse could grant Into a dark gaol then cast Now began the adventures of the young prince of the land

Thus unfolded the story

Then began the romantic story

Enchanted by her sheer loveliness Enamoured by her winsome grace In love, the prince was besotted But the king of Sana‘a was alerted How the prince escaped And returned to his kingdom where they wept Lost forever was he, they presumed Magical his return and good fortune But the love story was to continue To return to seek her hand in marriage Grand plans were carefully laid *** Scheherazade spun her tale with magic and guile Over many a night and so remained alive

418

And then she recounted further adventures

Got further endangered Twists and turns aplenty Their plight wrought with uncertainty The miraculous horse black as ebony Wondrous in its virtues and wizardry The handsome prince and the maiden so comely Flew through dangers many *** But as the long nights played out King Shahryar‘s bride wove her tales tight Entranced was the king every night And thus began a new mystery before the night ran out The Arabian Nights saga continued

And what was to befall the virgin bride if she was exhausted… Hundreds of years hence The stories never lost their allure and essence Enchanting one and many Every story is laced with legends and flights of fancy, djinns and sorcery Lingering on love and loss, Honour and betrayal Gallantry and treachery Portraying human values and emotions real Timeless tales told through generations

OTKAD SE NISMO SRELI Ihaaaaj, koliko vremena proĎe! U tvojoj duši ko u bašti bijah. I ništa ljepše, ništa slaĎe. Ko kamen drag tada sva sijah.

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

Kao da nosim dragocjen ćivot Kad u veče kasnu svratim u mladost. Prošlo je, prošlo, ihaaaaj, Toliko muškaraca, lijepih ţena. Pa ti sad budi siguran, znaj Da l‘ za ţivot cio, za sva vremena. Nas dvoje dva svijeta, na dva kraja, Na dvije strane planete otišli. Bez treptaja, bez ikakvog sjaja Kao da smo se tajno obišli. Nestalo je, ihaaaaaj, nestalo I noge i ruke, usne i bedra. Sve je odjednom tako prestalo:

Clara Sánchez Pérez FICCIONÁNDOTE Ficcionaré tu nombre octogonal esta noche ebria de ambrosía azul, en la curvatura ovoide de tu boca coloidal, hasta el éxtasis y el suplicio lateral. Inyéctame tu lujuria salvaje por entre mis poros anacoretizados, hazlo en el cuenco de mi boca para tu mayor regocijo. Derrámate como una catarata espumosa en caída libre, hasta que las mariposas mismas huyan como bandadas multicolores sobre el poniente cancerígeno. Sé posesa como una loba alfa, hazlo en cuclillas, suéltame tu jarabe de anhídrido carbónico en el caldero de mi pasión. Contorsiónate como una serpiente pecadora en mi tallo mayor, transfusióname tu savia bruta con delicada contorsión, hazlo sin piedad hasta que tus mitocondrias enciendan mi palizada y prometo ser tu Alfa Centauro hasta el amanecer. Haz que tu boca ribonucleica sea un sifón huracanado de caricias y moje hasta mis pensamientos este pérfido amanecer.

CON OLOR Y SABOR A TI

Page

costra epidémica de una fontana abandonada, huyendo de su propia soledad abisal, para llegar a ti con su copiosa ofrenda dionisiaca de todos los olores y sabores más exóticos y salvajes,. Ven, ahítate con tu favorita ambrosía, a discreción. Ven, dame tu néctar más gelatinoso, lleno de colapez y linaza, como tu pócima más barbulladora.Esta tórrida noche feraz, caeré prisionero en tus amplios y espiralados y húmedos socavones empantanados. Desde abajo, absorto y expectante, contemplaré tus belicosos ríos subterráneos, vulcanosos, llenos de estío y primaveras rodantes. Ábreme la irredenta compuerta de tus aguas termales, prémiame con la catarata pecaminosa de tu ambrosía olorosa y espumante delirio. Fumígame con el conjuro mágico de tus perfumes secretos de sándalo que manan de tus muslos pedernales, para embriagarme en tu hechizo nigromante. Ven márcame como tu cruzado que va a la conquista de tu Santo Sepulcro, iníciame con tu sexo samaritano, ármame tu caballero servil de tus caprichos y antojos más prohibidos, trepídame con tus corolas más destellantes, hazme adicto a tus bordes desflorados, hasta la otra anunciada glaciación. Ven explórame con tus fonemas más subyugantes, azótame salvajemente con la turbulencia de tu lengua sermus rusticus, lánzame el sexolecto de tus gemidos sobre mis omóplatos contorsionados, embríagate con todo lo mío, que juntos, siempre juntos, danzaremos ebrios desnudos por toda la nebulosa sideral de nuestra alcoba nupcial.

Arabian Nights. World Poems ‫ ألف ليلة وليلة | ألف قصيدة وقصيدة‬Silk Road Literature Anthology

en el estruendo de mi truenos Y por ser consagrado a las pasiones adornado del estallido de mis mares, Me obsesionó el puerto de una mujer que mezcla el tiempo con los luceros, seduce la distancia del extravío y luego me suplica que me divierta allí donde están los campos de mis delicias. Y porque unaaldea del Atlas me ocultó toda un alma, en mi cabeza tuvieroneco tumultos mi ojo vio su sueño esparcirse como las perlas un collar arrancando vio las facciones de la amante eclipsarse en los parpados. O lobo, confidente mío

Maria do Sameiro Barroso ARABIAN NIGHTS — ENTHRALLING TALES, ENCHANTING MUSIC I know my destiny is to become true like a fairy tale. Listening to Rimsky-Korsakov, turning the oriental enchantment of the mythical Scheherazade into music, making nights longer and longer her lasting days, I once wished to defeat the inhuman shape of human monsters, and found myself enthralling my Shahryār. In my tales, I invented my destiny, summoning my sheltering spirits,

delivering the whitest and most fragrant lilies into the world of nighty ghosts. Thus, I would fill the world with candles of gentleness, empathy and delightfulness. I know my destiny is to dream and wake up when the magic nights come to an end. I know my destiny is to survive in my song, believing in the miracles of existence. Learning from Scheherazade how to invent the blissful days and overcome the endless sorrow, I turn myself into a rhyme and my days into a never-ending lullaby of magic emeralds and powerful spells,

When I was little Than the ground on which I stand Thousands of feet above To the plane flying in the sky He was shouting for the first time ‗My father is floating in the bay Take it back with you ‗ But the plane never returned with my father. He sat on the floor of the house and looked at the road My mother‘s eyes never tired Looking for a foreigner … To everyone walking back home You are watching carefully till late .. Or you don‘t know The leaking roof is still the same as you go. It also leaks in the rainy season. The same is true of the threshing floor The same is true of these dreaming eyes. In the same way, the deficiencies are pressing. Dhaniram took Sahu hostage You have not been able to return the land yet You haven‘t even been able to change the leaking roof of the house Deficiencies have not left. Or your picture hanging on the wall of the house He is still smiling in the same way. But my mother could never smile Today, I couldn‘t even smile after you left To bring back the smile on my mother‘s lips I am also in the queue of these people I am standing at the airport with my passport in my hand.
