you were hanging there
like a prize
not moving the whole lunch hour
were you telling the city some answers
or   giving us the best questions

you were hanging there
like a prize
picking the spot right over the promenade
knowing many thousands of people would stare up
and forget    the last decision they had made

yes, you were, you were hanging there
like a prize
and I wanted you,
I wanted you to stay
stay lit up, my promise, stay delicate

طوال ساعة الغداءْ

هل كنت تشجينا ببعض الأجوبة ْ؟

أم كنت تعطينا جميل الأسئلة ْ؟

كنت هناك واقفا

جائزة ً معلّقة ْ

فوق طريق المنتزه ْ

حيث الألوف لك ترنو وامقة ْ

ناسية ً آخر ما كانت تريد ْ

نعم , نعمْ

كنت هناك واقفا

جائزة ً معلّقة ْ

و حينها كم ابتغيتكَ ابتغيتك البقاء ْ

تبقى مشعّاً بالضياءْ

يا حلميَ الآتي
