The Hidden Face by Tariq Abdullah Ali / Translated By Ibtissam Ibrahim Poem by Ibtissam Ibrahim

hidden face
Have you ever seen that hidden face?
his nobility and pride In the features
Has his fragrant sense ever floated your heart?
A kind word, as if it were for the kindness of universe.
Have you seen him?
The one who defies obsessions,
Resilient in the gust of time.
Dreams fall, he walks in patience
Days are dwarfed, he rises in trials.
Have you read the fragrance of principles in his faith?
and meanings are full of the best values
His faith is above intrigue and darkness,
Beating and coherent
He has never softened or defeated
He is one of the echoes of those biographies,
those heroics that were carved on the chest of years
steadily inhabited of those who were filled with certainty
and put their mark on the pages of history with Valor
in the epics of severity of the safe country.
It is a value of a nature that has been illuminated
With the spirit of a flower like a beautiful garden
But in its wrath it is a resounding as the muddy
In the vein of destruction is the wrath of the great river
