وتجوب بحاراً وبحارا
وتفيض دموعك أنهاراً
وسيكبر حزنك حتى يصبح أشجاراً
وسترجع يوماً يا ولدي
مهزوما مكسور الوجدان
وستعرف بعد رحيل العمر
بأنك كنت تطارد خيط دخان
and you will prowl seas after seas..
and your tears will overflow into rivers…
and your tears will overflow into rivers…
and your sadness will grow until it becomes trees..
and you will return one day my boy
subdued, with a broken conscience
you will realise after a lifetime
that you haunted a thread of smoke!
I like that little verse. Where's it from?
