خُيولي 
أخَفُّ مِنَ الرِّيحِ 

سَنابِكُها تَقدَحُ الشَّراراتِ 
إذْ نَدْخُلُ المُدُنَ 

الحَرْبُ تَسْتَلقي 
كالعَروسِ بِإنتِظاري 

والحَتْفُ يَتَكلَّمُ بِاسمي 
فأنا هولاكو: 

سَيْفٌ في غِمدهِ لا يَسْتَريحُ 

ظِلّهُ أَينَما ارْتَمى 
يَستَنسِلُ غَيْمَةً مِنَ العُقبانِ الجائِعَة 
تطفو فوق البيوت 

حيثُ يَراني 
اللاجئونَ في 
كَوابيسِهِم بَينَ الخَرائِبِ 

- شعر لسركون بولص (١٩٤٤-٢٠٠٧). الترجمة الانجليزية لناريمان يوسف 

-------------------- 

My stallions 
are lighter than the wind. 

The fire of their hooves 
singes the earth 
as we enter the cities. 

War reclines, 
a submissive bride at my call, 
and Death speaks in my name, 
for I am Hulagu: 

a sword untiring, 
its shadow, wherever it falls, 
begets a cloud of hungry vultures 
that circle the houses 
where refugees 
see me in their nightmares 
among the ruins. 

- Poem by Sargon Boulus (1944-2007). English translation by Nariman Youssef.
