An open-hearted message

from New York 9/11

addressing to mankind

 

                                                           (Translated by the author)

 

 

           

Friends,

Ladies and gentlemen!

Have you seen anything in this life from the whereabout?

Everywhere as throughout!

Around the worldwide regions

On the mainland of the five continents

On this planet of Earth

Where we’ve been mature for

two millennnia of age of the Globe

 

Two milllennia 

From the Chirst child coming into the World

Two millenia like such

There’re too many stories to be noted

There’re too many pains and glories

Two millenia every door’s been wide open

men’s eyesight can see through the Universe

men’s cleverness can localize every star

men’s feet can take a walk in space so far

The immense surface of the Earth can minified in pan

From the very faraway of the immense mainlands

The words of whispering

Exchange for inmost feelings

making trysts and recommendations

The Earth’s plenty of signals of affections

 

Two millenia

plenty of extraordinary stories

men can reach the Moon, the Planet of Mars

Subjugate the space

measure to the bottom of the Seas

calculate every inch of the surface of oceans

mirror the seadepth throughout the bottom

However, the “ Man’s Heart”

can’t be fathomed for ever

 

Lies

Jealousy 

Imposture

Betrayal

Witchcraft, Machiavellism

on behalf of every sgnboard

sharpened the points of their aroused arrows   

Deeply whirling hostility and harted with proud

then shooting them into mankind’s heart

 

Two millenia for

man’s great

man’s mean-minded

On the way to the itinerary of cleverness

The wide field of vision’d be open

And perspective’d be accurate for a target in the future

As well as backwarding to the past for reminiscence

The past full with un happiness

Galileo was dead because of blind prejudice

Jesus Christ was crucified for expiate sin

Slaughter houses for millions of jews that were burned in

Mankind’s due to call one another as thirsty for peace

They smelt powder all century long

The World 1st ended

The World 2nd was on

Korean war

The Vietnam war

Nationalist vs Communist War’s set

Devil’s Ideology was collapsed

Sovietique, Eastern European and Mogolian

escaped from woes and tribulations

 

At the front of the threshold dawn of the 21st Century

The world ‘s stunned by the bad news of New York

The mankind became bewildered to be taken aback

About crazy fire quenchless flames

Mankind’s civilization’s collasped after some minutes to blame

Devils of human being’re laughing on corpes and remains

As they’re from the same red blood, skins & bones

 

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen!

What’s a violent anger scream

Gushing the venom into the poetry?

the lyrical vibration’s broad with expectancies

From the pulse of the heart as source 

Of affections and humanitarians

From honest words :

Trustworthiness for thousands of generations

My heart is outspread

With the call of my fondness

May the Sunshine

enlighten man’s light blosom.
