1. من فمه

    جمع الذوق لوازم خيمته و مضى

    From his mouth

    Taste gathered his tent's gear and departed.

  2. لم يعد المطبخ يسعفه

    إلا بالشعرية

    The kitchen no longer comes to his aid

    except with vermicelli

  3. و العدس الكيميائي القسماتْ

    فماذا يفعل ذوق في فمه

    and lentils with chemical features.

    So what can Taste do in his mouth

  4. و هْو صباحا و مساء يتلقى اللكمات

    قد اتسع الرقع على الراقع فيه

    while he receives punches morning and evening?

    The patchwork within it has already outgrown the patcher.

  5. لا لحمَ

    و لا كعكةَ

    No meat,

    and no cake,

  6. تحيي منه الأرض و هْيَ مواتْ

    آلى ليس يعود لصاحبه

    to revive the earth within him, dead as it is.

    He swore not to return to his owner

  7. حتى ينفضّ معسكر تلك الشعرية

    حتى يأفل نجم العدس المشبع بالنكساتْ

    until the camp of that vermicelli breaks up,

    until the star of lentils saturated with setbacks sinks.

  8. يرحل و الضيم إثر ركائبه

    يوخزه في الكنْهِ

    He departs, oppression following his riding camels,

    pricking him at his core,

  9. و يوسع صدغيه رسما بالكدمات.

    and painting his temples all over with bruises.
