Arab children, Corn ears of the future, You will break our chains, Kill the opium in our heads, Kill the illusions. Arab children, Don't read about our suffocated generation, We are a hopeless case. We are as worthless as a water-melon rind. Dont read about us, Dont ape us, Dont accept us, Dont accept our ideas, We are a nation of crooks and jugglers. Arab children, Spring rain, Corn ears of the future, You are the generation That will overcome defeat.
Nizar QabbaniMy lover asks me: โWhat is the difference between me and the sky?โ The difference, my love, Is that when you laugh, I forget about the sky
Nizar QabbaniIf you want to kill somebody, conquer his heart, Then leave slowly and leave them between death and madness.
Nizar QabbaniThere is who loves you quietly, and respects you quietly, and wishes you privately, and walks away when he sees you busy with someone other than him, and his ego restrains him from getting near you, and contents himself with the love for the sake of love
