1. A hope unattainable
And a heart inconsolable

2. I'm a bird whose fate is broken
My nest and wings torn

3. And I was thrown in tatters
Of my tears and laments

4. And wreckage from remnants
Of a homeland ruined

5. My dark sighs have gone
In the trails of winds

6. They sympathized for my worry
And hid my weapon

7. I found no listening ears so I poured
My sorrow into my wounds

8. And I woke up on the rubble
Of a ravaged nest

9. And estrangement amidst forests
Of dreadful vastness

10. And a life of struggle
And fight and strife

11. I see only darkness
In my rising and resting

12. And heavy chains
That slept in every field

13. The paths to my nest
Were blocked from all sides

14. Time was baffled by dawn
And time is no comforter

15. I found no ray of light
In my exile and avoidance

16. Except my nest where no
Morning lights descend

17. I used to water it with my beak
From the hair of my nape

18. I used to be the wonder of my time
In my activity and travels

19. Among eloquent birds
And chirping chicks

20. Playing but not speaking
Except jestingly

21. I did not differentiate in their prattle
Between ripe or raw

22. I wish I know would the era
Of invasion retreat

23. So I can take from it the cup of love
Like permitted wine

24. I wish I'd lose half my soul
In one relishing sip

25. Oh if only the nest would pull
With a cord of intimacy

26. Oh if only distances of purpose
And remoteness would vanish

27. It's not for destinies if they returned
To my family from wings

28. Oh what would sighs accomplish
In barren desolation

29. Misery to tears, if they don't
Free me from my shackles

30. Crying is the most futile I have used
To gain success
