Шакир, Парвин: Цитаты на английском языке

from the shore
the frozen shiny sands suddenly moved
beneath her feer.
The girl standing knee-deep in water
came to herself and mused:

in the haze and mist of slimy yesterday?
Do what you will

the sun has also been accused
of having necked and cuddled the night.”

knock till eternity
on the red stone walls
behind the city of flowers,
no change will occur.
Only that they will tire themselves.”
